I'm crazy proud of this.

Y’all! I’ve loads to say (as you might imagine!), but for the moment I’ll take a cue from the programmers and leave it to the kids.

Whee, it’s here! I still can’t believe Josh Glick invited me to join this brilliant chorus & I’m honored to contribute to this impressive collection. Thanks to my helpful editors for nudging my piece into its best form and assembling a stellar lineup, and thanks to Oxford UP for this gorgeous book.

Sean Baker, that best director speech, all of it.

Y’all, screen Jesse Eisenberg’s A REAL PAIN. Worth it, I promise.

The world is crumbling but we must go on. Agents + writers: I may be looking for one more southern nonfiction project for fall 2026. Literary nonfiction, essays, and cultural criticism highly welcomed. Anthology projects need a short proposal + list of confirmed contribs. DMs are open for pitches.

Demi Moore!! What a Golden Globes speech. Kind of pitch perfect. Never thought I’d write such a post, but she hit the mark in registering the necessity of being enough for yourself. Brava.

So much goodness here!

I just shared this with my interested student today. Brilliant. Thank you!

Actually very proud to announce that I am doing a thing: a new book series called "TV Matters" with Intellect! Television / media / pop culture scholars, take note and get in touch if you wanna write about TV! Please share far and wide.

Thank you for writing (this and everything!)

“our lives are indeed out of our hands, but the witches who control our destiny may be far less malevolent than we fear.” Thanks for this needed reminder of this perfect film, @pamhutch.bsky.social

So looking forward to this book!

Me too!! This book is for you. Would love to know what you think.

Oh my gosh!! Thanks for this cheerful welcome!! You’re my first repost and reply, even (if I’m doing this right). Thanks for the help and spirit. 😍

Please allow this first awkward post to demonstrate how I’m always learning.

Yes please!

Yes please!
