I'm glad you got something from it! There are so many ups and downs in this business (and in writing itself).

1. I've already told you how TRASH I am for anything that comps to Single White Female, right? I am beyond excited for this book.

2. Fuck toxic positivity. I like seeing the struggle and the doubts because they're very real. I've def been there.

3. "Solipsistic" is one of my favorite words, incidentally.

4. It was great seeing you at the Orlando Book Festival!!

It was great seeing you too!! I think I was equally obsessed with Bridget Fonda and Jennifer Jason Leigh when SWF came out. Did you ever see Existenz? Such a strange (I mean, David Cronenberg) but fun movie. And yes, put "fuck toxic positivity" on a t-shirt.
