The only way to get better as a writer is to sit down and do it, and that's what you've done, week after week for these three years. it's been a treat to see you grow in skill and confidence, and to marvel at how you can pull a wonderful essay out of that drink of water in the middle of the night, on the feel of a new sponge, or the simplicity of buttered toast. And yes, when you go deeper, there's a whole other reward. I loved the life and death of a banana, but I teared up at your farewell to your Grandma Ruthie. I'll see if my aging boomer brain can come up with a topic or two you might enjoy writing about but I'm confident your antenna will continue to find humor, beauty and fascinating insights in this crazy terrifying and sometimes glorious world.
If you could have a chat with your 18 year old self...
I like it.
Ooo that's a really good one, thank you!
The house you moved into in your senior year of college. Red Solo cups. Your favorite coaches.
Ooo that's a great one! Thank you!

Awww thank you!
I love your range of topics. Keep the variety coming! You address things I never would have thought of, and grab my attention every time.
And I really really do appreciate your continued readership!
Great summary and admission that you have writer’s block.
Write about how your attitude/excitement/anxiety about Opening Day has changed from childhood to now.
Hey! I don't have writer's block. I have topic block, it's completely different! Great topic idea, thank you!
