Girrrrllllll.... I can't even imagine how you must have felt in that moment. To have your vulnerability weaponized against you like that is evil. Hugs... hopefully you have made your way back to seeing that honesty and self-reflection as the superpower that it is. Time will show that, but doesn't mean it doesn't sting like fuck in the moment. Keep on being YOU! We love you for you and don't you dare let him take that away. A$$hole.

Love you Kate. I know you are fine and I'm very happy to get to read your thoughts on the creative process and dating life gossip. Horrifying that X pulled that move, but no surprise. Calling women crazy for expressing themselves creatively is the oldest misogynist trick in the book - hope he's proud of himself (and his friends who read this to gather ammunition on you, wow). Write write write my dear friend.

This is so wild. And I am so sorry, and also relieved for you, and also full of rage, and #7 #7 over and over.

I’m glad I got to know you now and not before. I missed your letters. I hope we continue to get to know each other as well. I love reading your writing.

anyone who thinks your writing is cause for worry doesn't understand 1. Mental health, 2. Single parenting, co-parenting, divorce, 3. Being human.

Be free of those people; they aren't for you, and you are not for them. and don't ever stop 🫶🏻
