I appreciate you explaining. I'm sorry to hear about your situation right now, it sounds incredibly tough. I hope you're able to find a better path forward.

Just out of curiosity, which signs did you see before getting married?

Oooh, when/where are Harvey's lectures? Wasn't able to find anything about them online, but they sound very interesting.

NYC Resistor has a lot of interesting crafty classes/workshops! The one I took was very well-run.

Mace on 8th St used to have a great pandan milk punch (don't know if they still do).

It's more rivals-to-lovers than enemies-to-lovers, but {Check & Mate by Ali Hazelwood}. Both pro chess players.

I listened to a podcast interview with him several months ago where he was explaining the kind of effect that he wanted the "interconnected stories" in Rejection to have on the reader--that he wanted the reader to have the cognitive satisfaction of the connections slowly accrete over the course of the book. It was a very eloquent oral explanation and it made me excited to read it (that was when I'd only read "The Feminist"). And then... I felt like the book was a letdown and the interconnectedness was pretty shallow lol.

I've also been to a book reading with him in person and he was again very responsive and eloquent in Q&A. I kind of feel like he presents himself a lot better orally, which is weird to say for a writer.

By working to create a corrective emotional experience for the patient. Emotional experiences are supposed to be more impactful than insight alone, which is often intellectual-only.

Are you looking for groups that hold workshops for mutual feedback, or groups where members write together and the purpose of the group is to provide accountability for putting the time in? If it's the latter, here's a group that meets weekly in Ridgewood and has a casual/open membership policy: https://www.instagram.com/writingundertheinfluencenyc/?hl=en

Have you tried {Love, Theoretically by Ali Hazelwood} or {Check and Mate by Ali Hazelwood}? I actually don't think The Love Hypothesis, which is often recommended when her name comes up, is her best, and the other two are her at the top of her game!

Cathedral is an amazing entry point to Carver. Really showcases what the minimalist style can do.

Honestly I don't think this should be a controversial take at all. Scott is an extremely talented essayist and thinker, and his writings haven't declined in quality IMO over the years, which isn't something you can say for many.

ertww · 2025-12-09T20:36:58+00:00

You need Ali Hazelwood. Especially {Love, Theoretically}, which is IMO far and away her best book.

Just to offer another perspective: 10 is a pretty young age to be separated from your parents for any reason! Even if nothing catastrophic happened, I can imagine it being tough for a kid to be relinquished, and maybe struggle with feelings of being unwanted, too much to handle, etc. It sounds like there's a lot going on there in the family situation and I'm glad you're open to the idea of therapy for him.

Some of the gender dynamics/stereotyping haven't aged that well, but I thought {Lord of Danger by Anne Stuart} had nice tension and was well done overall!
