  2. What is a week from today? The application deadline for the March 7-8 Personal Essay and Memoir Master Class in NYC. The last class had someone come all the way from New Zealand! How far will you come? (Jupiter residents: I'm talking to you.)

    " . . .Cummins has become a scapegoat for all manner of literary grievances, including a host of decisions that she had absolutely nothing to do with." Smart, smart on .

    Just stumbled on this and am struck by how closely it hews to what people come up and say to me at book signings and write to me in private messages. But it's not about being "a conservative" (these people are NOT) and it needn't be expressed sotto voce.

    Good and brave piece by , whose life was ruined by showing up on the Shitty Media Men list, under an entry containing false information. The idea I have to choose between being pro- and being against preventable outcomes like this is bullshit

    "It was genuinely one of the worst, most embarrassing recent moments in professional journalism, and there was never any real reckoning among those who screwed it up." on the systemic dysfunction that fueled the episode.

    Here's another. I write, spirit of self-interrogation, "I was hearing voices in my head yelling the equivalent of "get off my lawn." New Yorker headline: "Meghan Daum to Millennials: Get Off My Lawn." Again, clever.

    I don't want to pile on Emily, actually. She's a good literary citizen in many ways and often has very good taste and has done some good work. The review is really just emblematic of a larger aesthetic and ideological phenomenon that's too complex to try to capture in a tweet.

    I'm also going to start collecting headlines that directly contradict what I say in the book. (Though, in fairness, writers don't write the headlines.) Headline of this review is Jagged Little Redpill. Which is admittedly clever.

    Emily Gould takes on THE PROBLEM WITH EVERYTHING in . I'm actually kind of disappointed she didn't go harder. Also, it's not an essay collection, which is why the chapters are labeled "chapters."

    Maybe so if younger gens aren't given enough info, options and hope for the future. But this conversation demands far more precision and nuance than it usually gets. Evidence overwhelmingly shows that people who make the conscious choice not to have kids have few if any regrets.

    Just wrapped A-plus Personal Essay & Memoir Master Class. Amazing guest speakers included Susan Dominus from the NYT. Amazing students traveled from as far as Seattle, Oakland, New Zealand (what??) and . . . Brooklyn! (Which may take just as long to Wash Heights.) Thanks to all!

    Quick announcement, and then I'm shutting up for the day: the Personal Essay and Memoir Master Class initially announced for Mar 14-15 has been rescheduled to MARCH 7-8. Application deadline remains 2/10. Sorry for any inconvenience!

    The backlash to this piece from a certain wing of the blue check media brigade is now beginning. Will be curious to see if any of it actually engages with the piece on its own terms or in anything approaching good faith.

    Loved talking with on her podcast, Theory of Enchantment. Chloe is one of the most interesting people and original thinkers around today. She also got me to rewatch the film adaptation of the great Richard Yates novel, Revolutionary Road, which was a gift.

    It's worth noting that this piece was adapted from a speech that was, presumably, well received. What if it had been pitched to an editor as an idea or written on spec? No knowing for sure, of course, but I have a few guesses.
