Someone asked me at the Elizabeth Gilbert workshop this weekend if I was a writer

I was about to laugh and say no

Until I remembered that I’ve published five substack articles, five weeks in a row

Yes, I replied

I am a writer!

I learned yesterday that my neighbor’s pediatric oncologist/researcher son at Johns Hopkins was ordered last week to halt his pediatric cancer research.

Which just goes to show you: a fetus is far more valuable than a child living with cancer.

The “party of life” my ass.
