Cindy House’s essay “Chipmunk”features a rogue rodent, a new baby, piles of poop, and the moment someone transforms into a complete stranger. Here she shares just one thing about the piece: buff.ly/ajN4Mfk

Sent a friend my thesis & she sent it back annotated, including dated screenshots of her notes app when she tried to capture the same ideas I wrote about, & compared one of my essays to our mutual favorite essay. This is the best thing that's happened to me
