Friends @emanabdelhadi.bsky.social is doing well— she’s at home, released last night. I’ll let her speak on the ordeal when she’s ready but for now wanted to share this update.

It’s publication day for Listeners Like Who? @princetonupress.bsky.social. I’m grateful to the journalists that shared their stories with me, the colleagues and friends that read copious drafts, and the early readers of the book. press.princeton.edu/books/paperb...
