With excitement & endless gratitude to the brilliant, patient, & generous editors @The_Rumpus (looking at you, @darcyjaygagnon), I bring you: spiders in space! I will happily be receiving all y'all's falling Skylab memories.
“I want them to take comfort in the good company so far away from the comfort of home. I want their story to be a good one.” From @jill_christman's new original essay "Spinning Webs in Space." 🕸️ therumpus.net/2024/10/08/spi…
Thank you @INPublicRadio for having me & our amazing guest Hena Khan on to talk about this week's writer-in-residence program @BallState Let's go! @bsuenglish @BallStateCSH @PresidentMearns @iSmashFizzle In a hurry? Minute twelve: play.prx.org/listen?ge=prx_…
Such a lovely October-y Beautiful Thing by Joseph Gross for my fellow leaf rakers out there: riverteethjournal.com/beautiful-thin…
In my new essay "Spinning Webs in Space"--up now @The_Rumpus--I grapple with some trauma, but also? Black holes. And that ain't easy: "Nothingness. It’s a hard place to find."
Ashley, you know this is all an elaborate excuse to get to hang out with you every year, right? 😉 Seriously: together, we gave away almost 1,200 books to Muncie kids this year. This idea we had? It's WORKING.📚💕

"Beginning when I was a child, adults—often complete strangers—sought me out in quiet corners to tell me things I probably had no business hearing. My husband, Mark, calls this 'the Christman mystique.'” My newest essay--"Spinning Webs in Space"--up now @The_Rumpus 🕷️ 🕸️ 🛰️🪐☄️
If anyone from our literary hub of yore is here, I've got a crowd-sourcing question: quality magazines with more generous acceptance rates for those who are just starting out in cnf? (Listen, I advise patience & practice, but some are just so eager to get out there.)
