Ask Us Anything: Tomorrow 11/10 @ 2pm ET!
Register for AUA with me & Sari Botton
Hi, Friend.
A quick note to say I’ll be doing a Live AUA with the wonderful Sari Botton on Substack Notes tomorrow, Friday, November 10, at 2pm ET. Submit your question for us on the Substack app (all text, no video, so come as you are!) during the AUA hour, and Sari and I will reply in real time.
Here’s the event description:
Living creative lives, boasting several tattoos each, poet/memoirist Maggie Smith and writer/editor Sari Botton are two Gen Xers moving through midlife differently than the women in their families who came before them. At 46, Smith—who writes the For Dear Life newsletter—thinks of herself as a nesting doll, carrying all the earlier versions of herself at once, and trying "to honor and make space for all of the people I’ve been." At 58, Botton very much relates to this, and writes often about feeling internally 10 and a half, or 15, or 35—feelings that gave birth to Oldster Magazine and its popular weekly Questionnaire, which Smith responded to in April. Ask them anything about how they're writing their own scripts for moving through midlife.
