I just received this copy of a dishy new unauthorized #biography. We can all agree on the title’s accuracy, but other portions of the book might benefit from a more rigorous fact-check

Of all the 1-star Amazon reviews for my book, #thepowerofparting (there are two), this is my favorite. Never mind that it’s not true; I take it as a compliment. Thanks, Daynie! #toxicfamily #abuse #cptsd #nocontact #lowcontact #estrangement #healing #tpop @putnambooks

Why Abuse Survivors Should Embrace Their Anger | Psychology Today www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-...

Yesterday, for the first time in 15 years, I visited the house where my siblings & I were abused for decades. I doubt that placing a copy of #thepowerofparting there will exorcise any demons that linger there. But doing so felt like proof that I’ve exorcised some demons that had long haunted me 🙏📘🙏

If you were wondering why this week feels … different from all other weeks, maybe it’s because @theweekmag has just named me #authoroftheweek. Or maybe that’s not the reason at all. In any case, I’m quite happy about it! 🙏📘🙏 @putnambooks

I’m delighted to see #thepowerofparting front & center among the new & noteworthy at B & N! Thanks, Joe Stampf, for the 📷, & thanks @barnesandnoble for the lovely placement! #toxicfamily #abuse #cptsd #estrangement #nocontact #lowcontact #survivor #healing #tpop @putnambooks

Here I am after my event at @greenlightbklyn with the man who gave me my favorite line in #thepowerofparting: the final sentence of chapter 11. Thanks so much to @shaman_amon for that line & for being the best son 💙💛💙 #tpop @putnambooks.bsky.social

Honored to see my take on #estrangement in the @nytimes www.nytimes.com/2025/03/02/o...

Finally, a month I can spell

My dear friend @dawnladavis seems to be quite intrigued by #thepowerofparting. Her dear friend Kiki seems to be … less so. You can see for yourself who’s right when #tpop drops one month from today #abuse #survivor #cptsd #estrangement #nocontact #lowcontact #healing @putnambooks.bsky.social

I rocked the mic yesterday to correct some errors I made the last time I rocked the mic. I’m sure the #audiobook of #thepowerofparting is totally perfect now..🤞👂🤞 You can hear the total perfection for yourself when the audio drops on 4/1/25 #survivor #cptsd #estrangement #nocontact @putnambooks

We New Yorkers haven’t been through anything like what our LA friends are enduring now. But we have had just enough contact with wildfires to feel deep sympathy & concern for all Angelenos. Sending them 💪 & ❤️

I just sent off this print to an excellent customer. I’m very grateful to him & to all the excellent folks who support my work with your ❤️s, your $, & your kind words! 🙏📷🙏 #rainy #esb #nyc

Shamelessly sharing another 😍 quote card for #thepowerofparting crafted by marketing maven @mhpiep at @putnambooks. Thanks again to Molly for bestowing her artistic gifts on #tpop & to @david__sheff for his extremely kind words! #abuse #survivor #cptsd #estrangement #nocontact #lowcontact

@drkarylmcbride’s classic book about dealing with narcissistic parents was the very first book I read in my research for #thepowerofparting. So, I am especially moved by the kind words about #tpop she has just shared. This is one of those #fullcircle moments an author dreams of

Two years ago today, this marvelous woman, Melissa Milgrom. married me. Here we are, moments after the City Clerk of New York pronounced us #husband & #wife. Thank you so much, my love, for your #love 💫♾️❤️

Margaret, are you grieving / over Goldengrove unleaving? / Leaves, like the things of man, you / with your fresh thoughts care for, can you? #prospectpark #brooklyn #fall #gerardmanleyhopkins #tbt

What was @patrickbringley pointing at during our visit to the @metmuseum today? Ok, it wasn’t the @nytimes #bestseller list in photo 2. But who could blame him if it was?The new list sees his marvelous #memoir leap up to #6! Congrats to Patrick,his agent @farleychase, and Team BEAUTY at @simonbooks!

To celebrate my arrival on Bluesky, I’m sharing the most important sentence in my forthcoming book, #thepowerofparting. (But I hope you’ll read all the other sentences too!)
