2023: My Year in Writing
John Waters, Margaret Cho, Ginger Minj and more
I have a very cool job where if someone is coming through town I can ask my boss, “Can I interview this person?” So far he has not told me no. In 2023 I wrote SO MUCH. I interviewed people, I wrote for myself and I wrote a monthly column for Joy the Baker.
If you were able to read everything I wrote, congratulations. I owe you an award. More likely, you read the bulk of it and missed a few things here and there. So in the spirit of closing out the year, here is everything (with a live link) that I wrote in 2023.

If you read anything I write anywhere, thank you. I create a lot of output lol. I mean, this is just a list of published stories. I also write well over 1,000 social media captions a year. It feels good when people who care about me go the extra step to click through and read what I write. Thanks for being on my team.
