Issue 109: The Reading Life of... Petya K. Grady

Introducing myself the only way I know how

Today I turn 44. 🎂🥳

I wanted to celebrate with you in a meaningful way while introducing myself to some of our new friends around here. So, I am doing it the only way I know how — by talking about how I became the specific reader I am today.

Before I dive in, I would like to acknowledge how difficult it is to manage one’s attention these days and that I am profoundly grateful that so many of you choose to spend some of your time with me. I am hopeful that together we can continue to create intentional spaces that push us to read, write, think and feel deeply.
