Send My Love to Anyone | Issue 26

with Diana Tamblyn

Apr 30, 2023

Hello Friends,

Send My Love to Anyone is a top publication on the Substack Leaderboard! How cool is that?

Welcome to all the new subscribers!

For those new to this newsletter, Send My Love to Anyone is a monthly literary newsletter where I write about writing and sometimes other things, and I invite guests to write on a range of topics. Check out past guest contributors. Also check out Kirby’s (author of Poetry is Queer) SMLTA column The First Time.

For Issue 26, comic artist and graphic novelist, Diana Tamblyn, shares the process of adapting Cornelia Hoogland’s poetry book Woods Wolf Girl into a comic book. I write about shame, grant announcements, and toxic writing friendships and embarrassing myself in public … again.

For Issue 26 Gatherings (a roundup of recommendations), SMLTA recommends an essay by Alicia Elliot, a video by Sacha Archer, Rabbits by David Lynch, The Shit No One Tells You About Writing, The Festival of Literary Diversity, Another Story Bookshop’s May Readings & more!

Although I’ve been a lurker for years, I’ve started using TikTok, and I’m going down the rabbit hole of BookTok and WriterTok. It’s been interesting and fun. I’ll be writing about for a forthcoming issue.

I’m trying to find other writers and readers on TikTok. If you’re on TikTok, share your link in the comments.

Hope you enjoy this issue!

Kathryn
