I’m thoroughly impressed by the daily diarists I’ve seen on the Latest Things page. My mind groups them with people who have lush gardens while living in dinky apartment complexes. Or parents who bike to the grocery store with a kiddo (or three) in tow. What admirable put-togetherness these folks have.
Not to say that I don’t appreciate the every so often posters just as much. Documenting a life and sharing with the world is generally a nice thing to do.
A post and three books of personal writing that I've enjoyed recently:
- How the Blog Broke the Web by Amy Hoy
- Hijab Butch Blues by Lamya H.
- Sociopath: A Memoir by Patric Gange
- Quietly Hostile by Samantha Irby
