What a wild and wonderful fever dream! How strange to get through an entire Monday without any stories to workshop, or anyone critiquing mine.

Just read it again! So delightfully creepy.

to Jews, on the Gaza famine an open letter: we have been commanded

I just sent this out.

The Jewish people have moral frameworks for this moment.

It is a choice not to heed them.

Please let us meet this moment, let us see the shattered Temple around us, right now, and our responsibility to it.

The way that I was raised, being Jewish meant believing that every human life was sacred; to save a single human life meant saving all of humanity. That no law or ritual was more important than saving a single human life.

It's unfathomable that any Jew can accept what Israel is doing in Gaza.

You had to know, sorry :(

I'm very excited to see how this will go! And even more, how it will feel after.

Just had my heart stomped on by @theferocity.bsky.social 's memoir, How We Fight For Our Lives. It's already a treat to listen to Saeed read poems to us every week on Vibe Check podcast, so I knew his own writing would be beautiful.

But what if it hurts when I write?

If I say it enough times, it's bound to be true.

Perfect is the enemy of done lalaLALA PERFECT IS THE ENEMY OF DONE

That campus is gorgeous. And thank you!

OMG I would have loved a musicals category so much!

And yeah, @mremilyheller.bsky.social I think we missed each other since I moved to Santa Cruz in 2020. I finally made friends a few years later and already two of them have moved away!

I just found out yesterday that this podcast exists, and it's wild to hear people talk about me! Thankfully the hosts said nice things and I enjoyed listening to them recap the full week of games I got to see play out twice. Turns out we have the same taste in great anecdotes.

I appreciate that! Do you ever forget the existence of every single book the instant someone asks you to name a book? It felt like I did. But I do love that book!

@kenjennings.bsky.social did you read The Left Hand of Darkness yet?

tune in and root on your old pal Matt on today's Jeopardy! you're in for a helluva match with me, John, and the returning champ @jrogoff.bsky.social.

Hell yeah, let's go! 💪

Yay, congratulations!!

@johngreensbluesky.bsky.social Thank you for your crash course US world history series! I watched tons of your videos to prepare for Jeopardy! (or at least try not to look silly on national TV). We'll see if it worked during tomorrow's episode...

Thank you!

At this point, being on #Jeopardy! still feels like a fever dream, but they sent me pictures that prove I was probably there. See how I did on Monday, June 9!

One of the coolest things I've ever done was to be a contestant on #Jeopardy! My episode will air on Monday, June 9. Go to www.jeopardy.com/watch for how to watch.

Thank you to everyone at @jeopardyofficial.bsky.social! They're awesome and so was meeting @kenjennings.bsky.social in person!

I've seen some of what comes out of your own imagination, and hard agree!

I'm so excited to be part of this cohort this summer!!! Back in January, after a few years of rejections from Clarion, I wasn't even sure it was worth applying anymore. It still feels surreal that I'll get to spend 6 weeks honing my craft alongside 17 other talented writers!

You might be the one who got me to read Last Dragoners of Bowbazar!
