Emma, this was so, so good. As a piece of writing, and as criticism about the industrial review complex.

I am excited for you, and I love your work, and I'm grateful you're sharing these parts of the journey with the rest of us.

Thanks for this perspective, Emma! And I'm keeping my eyes peeled for the Head & the Hand info -- they really are the best.

I really appreciated this post.

And I *loved* We Do What We Do In the Dark! The austere sharpness of the sentences! And YES, that move in the second half of the book--when I hit it, my brain actually went "I didn't know you could do that." But the novel does what it wants, and it *works.*
