Love the voice, Dan. It's so tricky to pull off a voice like that and make it sound intentional, right? You crushed it!

Thank you! Yeah, I’m in a real second person phase. I like how it sort of erases the protagonist.

Elizabeth! This is gorgeous. I think about this all the time - we're hitting middle age, and my wife's already had a little skirmish with breast cancer, and I think about what it means when things get real. Thank you for writing this. I really felt it.

Oh hey, thank you! That's nice. I loved @elizabethendicott.bsky.social's piece too! I love how it starts off and you think you're in relatively normal (and very well done) lit fic territory, and then it....escalates. The milkshake seatbelt situation is set up masterfully.

online ADHD support group sounds doomed to fail anyway, frankly
I need to talk to my doc about this; my kid's been diagnosed with ADHD and every time I learn something about it I'm like ohhhh that's me too

Oh jeez, that's awfully kind of you! And I just read the piece @mattkendrick.bsky.social posted, and I see why he posted it. You're terrific, Emily. You consistently manage to do that mixture of funny and poignant that I think is one of the hardest things to pull off in art.

Imagine how funny it would be, though, if you changed your bio to "Emma Burnett has never won any awards, except for the Booker Prize."
