It's a KJ AMA!

Ask me anything about anything--open to all subscribers (for now)

CLOSEDIt’s time for Fall AMAs! From now until the end of 2024, we will take turns answering ALL your questions, pretty much about whatever. The first four will be free for all subscribers; after 8 October, we’ll be opening these to supporters only. (Next week’s Booklab: First pages will also be supporters only. We’re backlogged on submissions, so those are closed for now, but we will open them again soon!)

Here’s how this works:

Questions should be submitted as comments on this post by 11:59 pm EDT on Thursday, September 19. I’ll pop back in to answer them in the comments as I can, and I’ll answer them all by 5 pm EDT on Saturday, September 21, at which point I’ll mark the AMA as closed and close the post to comments (although the questions and answers will stay here to be read at any point.)

Here are a few reminders about these events:

• Ask anything! All questions are welcome. If you’re wondering, someone else probably is too.

• Feel free to comment on other writer’s posts, and to always be kind when you do so. Writing books is hard work and you never know where someone is on the path. We strive to lift everyone up and would ask you to do the same. Connecting with others here is a great way to build community — so jump in!

• Please remember that we can’t read anyone’s work.

• Please don’t promote your own editorial services or other work here. That’s not what this space is for.

• The AMAs are not “live.” The hosts will check in and respond while the AMA is live but they’re not on call—please recognize that responses may be speedy, or may take time.

Ask away!
