I love that you shared the bad news the way you so often share the good, and I especially love the message therein—that when you share, people open up to you. It's how we build community and that's so important. XO
It's hard sometimes to imagine someone as accomplished and gifted as you ever feeling self-doubt. I'm sorry you didn't get the NYT position (their loss!), but that just creates more space for you to connect with the gig that's perfect for you. Bon courage!
It was a pleasure meeting you (too briefly for you to remember, I'm sure) at the BookFest in Burbank. I was so pleased to see the turnout! Thanks for writing about your bad day. We all have them but we don't all admit to it, and thereby miss out on support. Best wishes!

Thank you, friend! We need to know we're not alone. Thank you for always supporting me!

Wonderful meeting you too! Thanks so much for your kind wishes. Hope you had a wonderful time at the Burbank book festival!
Thank you! I love "pauses, rests, and breaks for joy, fun, and beauty." Will take that into my week!
