Things my grandma loved:
— Breakfast: always a Belgian waffle with lots of syrup and no butter and sometimes a side of scrambled eggs she’d order for protein and then never touch. Always with the best family gossip.
— Setting up her Christmas snowman and mom’s frankly ridiculously robust collection of them.
— Disney: She used to go with her late husband when they were raising their family, so we took her back in 2015. As you can see, we had no fun whatsoever.
— Spending time with her family, no matter what we were doing. Most Sundays and every holiday, she’d post up in the corner of the kitchen island with a glass of her favorite Pinot Grigio and opinions. Hot dogs with tater tots was her favorite, but she’d also accept plain chicken and ham. Prime rib, not so much. Her grocery store-bought desserts were legendary.
Things my grandma hated:
— Family drama: unless it was minor and fun to talk about, she had no patience for it.
— Clothes shopping: She insisted her pants never fit; evidently her hips were uneven. There is no scientific evidence of this. The amount of time we used to spend looking for mock turtlenecks and a purse with the exact right number of zippers would shock the most dedicated marathon shopper.
— Mess, of any kind: Grandma and her yellow rubber gloves were a fixture at holidays as long as anyone can remember. No one has ever, or will ever, clean a bathroom as thoroughly as this woman. You could use the toilet as a soup bowl if the mood struck.
— Her hair, always: Hairdressers across Hamburg tremble at her exacting, largely unrealistic standards. It always looked great, if you asked literally anyone but her.
— probably all of these photos.
Grandma was a force to be reckoned with. She loved her family fiercely, and her friends just as well. I’m glad she’s no longer suffering, and thankful we had her with us much longer than anyone expected. Miss you already, gramma.
Love,
Your favorite grandchild (she said it, not me)

How can I capture 10 years in one caption? Happy 10 years of we, of always, of us against whatever comes our way. We couldn’t have imagined all that lay ahead on 10/7/16 (yes, our date is the Buffalo zip code. We’re insufferable) and I think we know better by now than to try and guess what lies ahead. We’ve laughed together, cried together, held each other up through tough times and partied down to celebrate the good ones. Through moving cities and apartments too many times, surviving a pandemic, the Bills raising our hopes and breaking our hearts over and over again, welcoming new family members and saying goodbye, discovering new places and rotting on the couch, through arguing over the proper placement of commas and walking double-digit miles on a sunny weekend (ok, just about every sunny weekend), since day one until the world finally falls apart, it’s always you and me. And Jerry, of course. I love you forever, @thenickguy.

Join us at The Hotel Chelsea for one magical day to make your book dreams come true. Here’s what awaits you at Book Magic NYC’s From Page to Platform on Friday, October 2nd:
The first section of the day brings…
BUILD YOUR BYLINE: This portion of the day is where you will learn how to pitch, publish, and build the credibility that gets your writing noticed. Your credibility guides are Hannah Orenstein of Bustle, Lauren Puckett-Pope of The Cut + New York Magazine, Lizz Schumer of People, and Tamara Fuentes of Cosmopolitan.
The lunch break brings…
LIVE BOOK COACHING: While you get to enjoy a delicious meal, we’ll be pulling back the curtain on how books are actually made, marketed, distributed, and discovered with the publishing insiders who do it every day: Kristen McGuiness + Diana Ventimiglia of Rise Literary, Janea Brachfel of Simon & Schuster, and Hillary Povar of SMITHHOUSE.
The final section of the day brings…
CURATE YOUR COMMUNITY: Because you don’t need millions of followers but you need the right community. Zöe Mahler of @nycbookhoe + @bookclubforbookhoes, Mackenzie Newcomb of @badbitchbookclub, and Tamela Gordon author of Hood Wellness are sharing what it takes to build an authentic platform, find your people, and create a community that becomes an audience.
And this is all happening at the legendary @hotelchelsea - a place where writers and artists have been making magic for generations.

Huge thanks to @people and especially to Senior Books Editor @lizzschumer who is a brilliant and generous editor and the coolest person in the books biz!
So grateful for this opportunity to talk about the healing power of psychedelics and my favorite New Yorker cartoon, The Adventures of Lady No-Kids by the great @willmcphail4

I realize I’ve only shared my most recent medical saga in stories and IRL with friends and family but now that we’ve got a bit more clarity, I wanted to share what we know more broadly.
Chronic illness isn’t new to me (what’s up, my fellow fibro/long COVID friends!) but this one is. I’m figuring out the most effective treatments and management strategies bit by bit, and appreciate everyone’s patience, support, and favorite electrolyte drink recommendations as we go along.
Happy Disability Pride Month, fam. 🦓

How do you capture a trip like this in a few photos? You don’t, but you can try. A week wasn’t nearly enough to fully explore Lisbon and Marrakesh but @thenickguy and I gave it a good shot. From walking a truly silly number of miles up and down the hills of Lisbon to tasting all the ginjinha, pasteis del nata and tinned fish we could find, to wandering the souks and palaces of Marrakesh and riding camels (bucket list for me), we had a truly amazing adventure.
As some may have seen on my stories, I capped it all off by having a seizure in the Marrakesh train station on our last day, because I like to go out on a bang. I’ll be fine; just got a few bumps and bruises and a lil gash in the head on the way down that needed stitching up (the headdress is a little over-dramatic but apparently that’s my brand).
Endlessly thankful for the kind security guards who responded and the nurses and doctors at the nearby hospital who patched me up — and that my wonky nervous system waited until we were on our way outta town to act a fool. People the world over are essentially good. I really believe that, and next trip, I’ll call the question in less dramatic fashion.

I cannot express the gratitude I feel today to the incomparably brilliant, sensitive and motivated @lizzschumer and @people for publishing this very personal essay of mine today about my cancer, my book, my family. I love @people — this is a thrill! And one of my bffs @merrittintheeveryday took the photo of my family. This is the first time I’ve ever put my kids in a magazine or on social media. Might be the last! Ha. I did it because I was so touched by @lizzschumer — her edit, her beautiful enthusiasm. It made me feel ready to jump. And Rachel knows how to photograph a family! She made it so easy, made us all feel safe, loved. She’s in the essay, too! So are @walkoverfarm , @jessicarmellon , @emmastark , @nora.calderwood , @adamdarter , @leahkyoko @davisdaniele207 , Mark Kelly and Rob Riggs @savagestoneknives . My friends— you guys changed my life, healed me. Thank you. ❤️❤️❤️❤️ @mainehealth thank you for the good care you took! Mo if you see this, I ❤️u & Led Zeppelin 4 ever. Link in bio👆( I’ll post full essay soon—on the road today to @hilltown.commons 4 event 2 mrw . Here’s the link, too, if you want to copy paste… but I promise it’s above and that link works! https://people.com/i-gave-a-character-cancer-then-got-it-too-exclusive-11976504)
