tabs



six tabs currently open on my computer:

 1. cooking with zora neale hurston

 2. muriel's wedding is a feminist masterpiece and more relevant than ever

 3. stephen shore on why young photographers really need to start with film

 4. the black excellence of khalil joseph

 5. susan sontag on being a writer

 6. whitewashing nola

 look, I really would like to read all these articles but am having trouble finding the time, what with all the buzzfeed quizzes and the netflix shows.

 to all seven of you who are reading, please vote: which one should I read first.

 p.s. I am done with question marks.

 p.p.s. I have only three free articles left over at the new yorker. please choose responsibly.

    I'm reading! I'm just saying, I know it's an expense but I LUUUUVVV having a print subscription to the New Yorker. They crush it in so many ways every dang week AND make it pretty.

    I feel you. I have STACKS OF THINGS to read/cook/watch/knit/photograph... I love Muriel's Wedding, but also the Zora Neale Hurston is calling and you did list it first. xo

    I'm so glad it's NaBloPoMo so I can read your words and see more of your images.

      was in the middle of reading 'their eyes were watching god' so the article on zora neale hurston was totally calling my name. it did not disappoint.

      (thanks for the kind words re: nablopomo-- I'm always kind of sad when it's over because I really do enjoy the push to post for thirty days and the craziness of december usually devours me)

    I'd like to vote for Muriel, but with Thanksgiving coming up, the cooking article might be best.
