this is a love story: poems and essays on friendship, love, and mental health releases this week on April 20, 2023. After a few harrowing days of trying to figure out some last-minute technicalities, it’s finally happening! Physical copies are on order, and on April 20, this is a love story will be available to purchase!
If you’re in the US, you can even already put an order in at Barnes & Noble, and soon it will be available through other retailers.
I want you to celebrate with me! Come join me through one of the following events happening this week:
The this is a love story AMA is now open! Add your questions, discussions, whatever here and I will answer every post this week.
I decided to add another activity, since a friend pointed out you might not have questions if you haven’t read the book yet. Well, just comment a number between 1 and 100 and I will share a line from that page, plus some background on that piece.
There are also a couple of livestreams this week. After some testing, I decided to switch my livestreams to YouTube, the bonus of that being that anyone can watch, whether they have an account or not. Find the links below, and click through to “notify me” when the livestream is live!
