Sample Book Insights:
#1 Iâm a professor at my old college, and Iâve published one young adult novel and submitted the outline for a second. Iâm verified on Twitter and appropriately pretend like I donât care that Iâm verified on Twitter when my students bring it up.
#2 I met friends for drinks now. I didnât have a cohort, and I gave up on looking for one. I imagined that if I were to get shot by a cop on the way home, Iâd earn a full obituary. My reveries were morbid and sentimental.
#3 Iâve come to realize that liking someone, and truly delighting in seeing their face, is not a given in adult friendships. Adults have ritualistic catch-ups that involve Google Calendars and an internal downgrade of what it means to be friends.
#4 I write about my white friends who think I like them, but not all of them are my friends. Some of them think I like them, and thatâs not racist. I donât consider writing about them racist.
