I have a review of Spencer Reece's recent book, Acts, in the latest issue of @GeorgiaReview. I wrote this essay last year for class and the professor nudged me to send it out. Thanks to Gerald Maa for accepting it. thegeorgiareview.com/posts/on-acts-…

Denzel Washington has been in 52 movies. You could spend 2026 watching a Denzel movie a week. My (kinda randomized + unranked!) viewing list is below.

This is a poem by my father. I am revisiting it because it feels so real. "Every season the gods take away." He was one sun who was taken away from me. I miss him. It's from his Collection "The Voice of the Night Masquerade."
