Only room for one tortured artist hit me in all the feels… I’m starting to get curious about who I could be if I let myself be an untortured artist- and who comes along for that ride is wildly different than who needed me to be the messy artsy one. ♥️♥️

I am so moved by this piece Annie! You get to the heart of what so many writers wrestle with, and do it in your own singular style, per usual. Thank you for the remembrance that when it really comes down to it, we're actually good, even if we may be horrible.

It’s easier to feel angry than sad. I feel that.

I have so many thoughts Annie. Too many for here, so let’s just get to the nub of it all. We want to read the story that sent the best friend packing. All of us do. Can you release it? We would pay for it.

On a same but different note, being the cook to the ex boyfriend’s intellect reminded me of many a past love. Dating politics graduates would come with a mental health warning. Also pls publish this book too.

Thank you.

Thanks Holly. These things exist on my google drive and one day some version will exist I think, just timing and tact and the right place. Really appreciate the comments and solidarity on the intellectual exes.
