confession: I am only just now reading my very first work from Shirley Jackson. While I’m disappointed in myself for taking this long to read her, there are tears in my eyes from how much I love these first 40 pages. Truly, I’m in awe.

All of Anna's podcasts are great, but this one really is a must-listen...

Anna Rose Reads @annarosereads.bsky.social · 14d

Interview with Eleanor Johnson is LIVE! This episode feels like a big one, a heavy one. Scream With Me gives you lots to think about, lots to feel. We talk about this, how it feels to see the ERA fail to pass, how it feels to see our plight play out on screen, and more (1/3 🧵).

Utterly delighted to speak to Anna whenever, about whatever - but I can think of no one else who i'd rather have done my first interview about my first book.

She's brilliant. She makes me feel old. Listen to her talk to me, and then listen to her talk to everyone else in horror.
