Glad you’re here and I hope I was helpful. I do notice that if you’re posting on Notes 10x a day you become one of the popular kids. I’m just not clever enough or don’t want to over share my life. I do share fab essays but no one reads them.
Don’t want to overwhelm so I’ll mention two recommends. Norm T. Leonard and Lee Bacon write wonderful personal stories.
You are one of the cool kids...I'm the dork in the corner but I'm sick of standing around...time to join you...I agree, Im not into over sharing...not fair to my kids and hub. I think my essays are fucking brilliant and so does my mom. So, maybe I'll read yours and you can read mine and we can see if out moms are right.
I'll check out your recs and thank you for being there....You are very helpful.
I love Ann Kennedy Smith's "Cambridge Ladies' Dining Society," where she writes "about hidden corners of literature, Cambridge women’s stories from the late 19th century, and the brightest and best from the arts and publishing worlds." It's a gem of discoveries. I also love Lucy Worsley's "My Life in the Past." She's a Nancy Drew of history.
What I work on... Mostly books, and I also share comedic essays about midlife and culture. I'm an inveterate oversharer, but if you're not embarrassing yourself at least once a week, are you really living?
😂well, I can join your club of embarrassing myself at least once a week. Is that part of the bullied pretty girl from high school complex we talked about? Embarrassing ourselves and over sharing makes us feel alive. Maybe sometimes a bit too alive.
Kim, thank you for this shout out! I am honored to be mentioned in this list of amazing writers and I look forward to checking out the folks you have mentioned here❤️
