At my local polling station. In line. Someone loudly clangs a bell inside. All the election workers cheer.

Love this piece by @BCDreyer — full of wisdom, wit, charm, and heart — just like the author himself. washingtonpost.com/opinions/…

I really don’t understand the snobbery in the literary world about bookclubs. This is America y’all. These are our teachers, nurses, social workers, lawyers. My stories are for everyone. I embrace folks who read 50 books a year and folks who read 1.

Thank you @MSNBC for this terrific interview with @ltelkins. The advice I will hold onto: A curvy career path can be a great asset, it's the knowledge most people in one area don't have that can transform that area.

The great and good @alroker just Zoom interviewed me for a @TODAYshow profile! Thank you, Al & Gentrix, for reading *A Portrait of the Scientist as a Young Woman* and for asking great questions. What a gift. Fun to talk about the mossy forests of western MA, too!
