Ramsey Orta was waiting to get dinner with his friend Eric Garner when the police approached. Orta took out his cell phone and hit record. I spent a year talking to him about that decision. The result is this story, which I hope you'll read and share.

He filmed the killing of Eric Garner—and the police punished him for it

The story of Ramsey Orta is one of continued and unending police harassment.

Thank you @ameliaschonbek for talking to me about Easy Beauty. I’m so grateful to be read so carefully and asked such thoughtful questions.

How Chloé Cooper Jones Changed Her Mind

In her memoir Easy Beauty, the writer confronts a subject she’d long avoided: her own experience of disability.

Love this so much. Jessamine's talent is rivaled only, perhaps, by her generosity. She spent so much time during her own demanding publicity cycle supporting and championing other writers/other books. We are lucky to live in her time!

Thank you to the fantastic @KateDwyer for telling the story of my book's journey to publication and to @nytimesbooks . Delighted to share the stage with TSFGM's many moms and @mere215 who looks SO BOSS in this photo, as she is IRL.

Easy Beauty by @CCooperJones is one of the best books I've read in ages. Lush, immersive prose mixed with stealth scholarship. It seduces the reader into a world of ideas and shatters conventional notions of who are what is valuable. Everyone should read it!

was on the phone with @TheLincoln and he asked me if I had any reviews and I said no, too early! but then he googled me & found this, then stayed on the phone while I cycled through a bunch of emotions lol (mostly gratitude but also some vulnerability anxiety). Thanks, Lincoln 💗
