Your writing moves me in a way that I can’t describe but that I can feel. I’m grateful that I hear your voice narrating for me so that I don’t actually read the piece, I listen to you explaining it to me. The Kenyon victory is insane. Amazing.

Love this piece Jessie. Makes me want to swing by and see those crazy alliums in the front yard. I’m also gonna pick up a corn muffin in your mom’s honor but I agree I have to cut it vertically. Missing Julie and definitely feeling her and the season begins to warm.

“I’m just trying to understand where the way that a person eats a corn muffin goes when they are gone.” Think you found a beautiful home for it in this piece Jess 💖

Made me so excited seeing your writing pop up in my Substack app. Enjoyed over my morning parfait. Love you and your words very much ✨😘🫶
