That was meant to say my favorite comment ever. Haha. I dictate my comments to my phone. And I really need to read them before hitting post. But time. 🤣
The vulnerability and openness from this conversation is so fucking life-affirming. Yes! Also, for the serials, now so much more to read. thank you thank you thank you both.
What a grand interview with Mr. Troy Ford and what a close: "As for my writing life, intentionality is taking the lead. And honestly, what best serves it will be the biggest deciding factor. I’m working on a book proposal and draft of a memoir chronicling the birth of my daughter when I was seventeen, her adoption, and our reconnection eighteen years later and hope to seek an agent soon. Much is on the horizon for my Substack editorial calendar. More essays. More intros to amazing humans like this one."
And thank you so, Holly, for including me in that marvel of a list at the end. 💕
And I'm loving everything you write, MTF, and am working hard to catch up. And I must add something I've said before in other ways: Holly has got to have the biggest heart on Substack.
How wonderful to hear from a fellow Harriet The Spy lover! I am SO looking forward to your memoir. And I really resonated with MTF's thoughts on genre and political discussions. Thanks so much for the read!
I feel so much safer and braver knowing that Jessica Jane has my back in all things writing and spying... With love, Xavier Gadfly
This might be my favorite moment ever. And that's saying a lot. Love back at you, Xavier. ♥️, JJ
