Sample Book Insights: #1 I’m a professor at my old college, and I’ve published one young adult novel and submitted the outline for a second. I’m verified on Twitter and appropriately pretend like I don’t care that I’m verified on Twitter when my students bring it up. #2 I met friends for drinks now. I didn’t have a cohort, and I gave up on looking for one. I imagined that if I were to get shot by a cop on the way home, I’d earn a full obituary. My reveries were morbid and sentimental. #3 I’ve come to realize that liking someone, and truly delighting in seeing their face, is not a given in adult friendships. Adults have ritualistic catch-ups that involve Google Calendars and an internal downgrade of what it means to be friends. #4 I write about my white friends who think I like them, but not all of them are my friends. Some of them think I like them, and that’s not racist. I don’t consider writing about them racist.
