The only reason I can continue writing and working as an independent feminist voice out of middle America is because people pay to subscribe to this newsletter. Become a paying subscriber and support the voices you want to hear more of in this world. After I ended my 12-year marriage in 2018, I decided that unless the health insurance marketplace collapsed, I didn’t want to marry ever again.

When Canadians say they don't want to be part of America, they really mean it. And they know what they are talking about. Canada, where I was born and raised, has always had a peculiarly intimate knowledge of the United States, and not only because many Canadians spent winter breaks in the back seat headed south on I-95. But if Canadians are at all times aware of their southern neighbor, the reverse isn't true.

Re-sharing some introductory words I wrote last year …Hi Readers,I’m not quite sure I’m ready to sum up 2024 yet - but one thing I always enjoy at the end of each year is looking back at the books I read. (I use Goodreadsto track my reading each year and find it really helpful, with the caveat that I have to manually enter audiobooks and/or books I didn’t read via Kindle). This year (again), I wanted to share images of the books I read as well as a short sentence/blurb about them.

The first time a much younger man responded to my profile on a dating app, I was amazed. I thought it was a fluke. A glitch in the algorithm. I was in Paris, at the tail end of the pandemic, which I had spent largely alone. Like alone, alone. I had not spent lockdown on Zoom first dates. Or socially distancing in a pod. I was very by myself. Now, here I was, solidly in my mid-40s, slowly reemerging back into the world of… I’m not sure dating would be the right world. Fraternizing, perhaps?

Since 2010, invariouspublications, I’ve interviewed authors—mostly memoirists—about aspects of writing and publishing. Initially I did this for my own edification, as someone who was struggling to find the courage and support to write and publish my memoir. I’m still curious about other authors’ experiences, and I know many of you are, too. So, inspired by the popularity of The Oldster Magazine Questionnaire, I’ve launched The Memoir Land Author Questionnaire.

Recently, a book tour gave me the opportunity to travel around America. Budgets being what they are, I primarily chose cities where I had friends who would happily provide me with places to stay. These were homes, almost without exception, filled with children. I have no children of my own, and this felt like a serendipitous chance to catch up with many of the kids in my life.
