The Viral Essay Making the Case for Marrying a First Grader (When You’re in Kindergarten)
When I was four, I knew I was in my prime. Solidly potty trained, only three teeth missing, able to draw both unicorns and school buses.
I'm an editor at Lit Hub and CrimeReads, and I mostly write about entertainment (reviews, big essays, blog posts, etc). Some of my essays have been published online in Vanity Fair, Vulture, Lapham's Quarterly, Public Books, The Baffler, Bright Wall/Dark Room, The Los Angeles Review of Books, Politics/Letters, and Truly*Adventurous, among other places. Other essays have been published in The New York Times, Elevator World, and Practical Sheep. I didn't write those essays, but they've been published there. My relationship to comedy is, I got a PhD in English literature, and in retrospect I find it very funny that anyone would do that.
