    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    hi loves, The F train was delayed almost enough for me to download hinge again. In the lonely fault of my lagged transit, I remembered how single I was, and it hit me all at once.I was told in April by a psychic that September would be the month that I found my future person. This has driven me to do anything possible to live out this timeline. To not let her down, to not let my hope down, to not let myself down. However, in the midst of this very specific omen of achieving possible love, I’ve l

    hi loves,As I took a subway route that makes me feel like a veteran New Yorker, I found myself feeling extremely lucky. Lucky to live a life where I can romanticize my commute.The tires of the L train screech while coming to a stop at 1st Avenue and I habitually scrunch my face at the unsettling sound that my ears wish they could unhear.

One that feels like the restart of my life. A chapter opening up in the book I’ve taken this year to write.Five days in the woods and fifty campers later, I left with one key feeling: nourishment.

    hi loves, New York has been welcoming me back with its warm, capable arms.I feel like I’ve completed the cycle of loving and hating it here, landing back in the place that feels somewhere in between. A feeling that usually resonates with feeling like a home.Not even a month ago, I felt myself resenting the life that I had built here. I felt, simply lost.
