These are all such brilliant and thought provoking ‘shoulds’. Thank you so much for the mention, it means so much. It’s my first foray into child-free territory and to be in the same paragraph as Emma Gannon and her novel Olive, wow. You have just made my child-free Christmas 🎄
Oh your last newsletter was such a gorgeous read! Thank YOU. You made both versions of Christmas sound wonderful and it was so respectful to all life choices – one of those pieces that unites rather than draws distinctions. The power of great writing! Merry Christmas :)
Thank you so much for this, this is such a great piece! I'm finding myself mentally trapped by quite a few 'shoulds' this holiday season, and this was a welcome reminder that we don't always have to live by the frameworks society imposes on us. Added more than a few of these recs to my reading/podcast lists!
Oh thanks so much, Sofia – that's super kind of you to say! Definitely feeling for you with all those shoulds, I hope you've been able to get some breathing space this week. Happy listening/reading/watching, love to know what you think of these. x
