My September nonfiction reading notes and highlights.

A belated recap of my summer.

I am not a good friend.

Things that make your manuscript look amateur.

What I got up to while not writing novels.

Did Lauren Layne quit writing?

You are not broken, quiet one.

On how I quit equating older with looking worse.

You’re allowed to want the life you want.

Little tweaks that improved my daily life.

On realizing I can choose whether to get upset.

Writing as a form of connection with strangers.

The things I miss and the things I don’t.
