Joyce Maynard has written for over 45 years about the kind of human experiences we're often taught to keep hidden. But that honesty has come at a cost to her. Today, we have a full hour with @joycemaynard about politics, #MeToo, art, marriage, and more. wnpr.org/post/hour-joyce-may…

There are approximately 51,000 TSA agents working at our airports. If they stage a mass “sickout”, the shutdown will end within hrs because the impact will be huge & immediate. And Trump can’t fire 51,000 agents without massive prolonged delays & damage to commercial air travel.
TSA employees have the power to single handily force Trump’s hand and end the shutdown. No question. If they all walk out or call out sick, air travel will grind to a halt and the pressure will be too much for him to bear. He would be forced to cave within hrs. #achilles

#WritingTip: Memorize poetry & short prose hunks. This makes language eucharistic: you eat it. You take somebody else’s passion & suffering into your body, and it transforms you. Every bank line lets you rifle your beauty file. It rewires yr head & keeps you in company w/ gods.

Writer @joycemaynard was called a Jezebel - and much worse -after she penned a memoir that included an account of her time with the novelist J.D. Salinger. Two decades on, she's looking back at the backlash through the lens of #MeToo on. nyti.ms/2PCeV1u #cbcthecurrent

This is the last working week of the year for Congress. Some folks invited me to go back to D.C. to tell my story to other members of Congress. It's a long trip and I'm pretty tired. But it seems important. What do you think, should I go? (Retweets = endorsement :)).
