    My first book ‘Lessons and Lace’ is real and it’s coming Sept 15! 🎩 A philosophical bio of Stevie Nicks (and cheekily named for “Leather and Lace”), L&L traces Stevie’s singular journey through the lens of her life lessons and words of wisdom 🌹🕊️🪄

    BTS was such a pain point when I edited Grammy.com. Any post about them did epic numbers and reflected where music's going, etc. But the RA board.. they really pushed back on our writing about BTS. For reasons I never fully understood, but seem obvious in retrospect

    I think a key difference is that the website was not monetized... And the show, well, pays for basically everything.

    I was managing editor for G.com from 2018-2020! It was a very passive-aggressive sort of pushback, like, questions about BTS/K-pop coverage trickling down from higher ups to my boss, the EIC, who was super supportive of me & the edit team, I should say (cont...)

    I love pop music. It’s also my job to provide commentary on it. I don’t want to be afraid to do my job. My latest for @Independent

    I always knew @taylorswift13 was a major philanthropist, but the extent to which is quite amazing and, IMO, underreported. Here's a new piece of mine for @UPROXX. Thx to @Philip_Cosores!

    The only loose rational that was given was that BTS were not Grammy winners, so we shouldn't go heavy on covering them. Though we were never given specific editorial direction on whether G.com was for Grammy winners, Grammy hopefuls, or a little bit of everyone

    In high school I rented Unfaithful and made sure to watch it after my parents went to bed. But my mom walked in JUST as the stairwell scene was starting and she just says to me: “you know they’re not doing it in the butt, right?”
