“I’m willing to show good taste, if I can, in somebody else’s living room, but our reading life is too short for a writer to be in any way polite. Since his words enter into another’s brain in silence and intimacy, he should be as honest and explicit as we are with ourselves.” – John Updike

That is SO awesome, Lisa.
I have a copy of your book sitting on my desk – just waiting to be read. Very intrigued by how you’ve combined art and science in your theory and practice.
Congrats on the in-the-wild sighting!
Thanks, Jamie! Hope you like the book, let me know!
Yay! I rereading your lecture notes this week and I’m still blown away by how incredibly helpful they are.
I’m so glad, Wendy! How is your work coming? It was such a thrill to watch you win the Kirkwood Award last year.
Yay!
Thanks, Darrelyn!
Congratulations, Lisa, that’s so exciting. I just ordered the book and am looking forward to reading it.
Looks like you’re in awesome company, right next to Joan Didion and all!
Thanks, Vickie! It IS such awesome company. Especially since it was Joan Didion’s work that drew me to writing in the first place. I’m humbled, no lie.
