Thank you! The photo is by my dear friend Anna Gaskell, taken 30 years ago, and designed by Teddy Blanks who also does all my film titles

I remember reading and rooting for the first memoir so much (I love the same font), feeling very grateful for it in my life, while also wishing it had been around when I was your age (or, the author's age at the time). Of course, now I know better than to mistake chronology for life's sense-making. Holy shit, so stoked!!!

“Mistake chronology for life making sense” - that’s so good, I’ll never forget it

I hope you love this one! Life may not make more sense but it’s got a bit more poetry to it :)

thank youuu

A title is always the first step in making me want to read something, and yours are always so original. But the title is never the whole story—I’m always curious to dive deeper into someone ‘s writing. Your style feels so real, creative, funny, and touching all at once. When Not That Kind of Girl was released, I got completely pulled into it. In 2020, during Covid, with Verified Strangers, I couldn’t put it down either! I’m sure this one will be just as true, funny, and touching as always! 🩷
