"I'm officially done writing nonfiction" was like clickbait, I immediately stopped what I was doing to read this.

The title was the best clickbait, b/c I feel the same way! I'm so fucking sick of talking about myself. Didn't know Bad Sisters was coming back! Wonder if they are going to plot against another dickhead, or continue being questioned about the first one....

Enjoy your much needed break. If you want to indulge in some historical fiction while you're abroad, might I suggest Jodi Picoult's novel BY ANY OTHER NAME. The inspiration behind the book was an article in The Atlantic by Elizabeth Winkler called "Was Shakespeare a Woman?" I'll leave you with that.

Me and my girlfriend LOVE Bad Sisters. The best show and I cannot wait to see if we get a season 2. But if its just that one perfect season of a story...I'm also content with that.

“…the first thing I think I of when I wake up…” is super relatable to me! Have you found it difficult to wrangle all of your ideas into something structured? I feel like I get lost in the daydreamy hypotheticals, and never quite make the jump to a more tangible form (but maybe that’s just my 9-5 destroying my mind, body, and spirit🙃)

I’m starting my non-fiction book so, once again, the world balances out.

Much love.

I think you should write what you want but I wanted to tear up when you said “done” with non fiction. You are my academic authority!! And keep us a littttttle in the loop from Europe. Pretty please?!
