We're so glad to be sharing our annual recap to reflect on another year of wonderful client news and accomplishments: jillgrinbergliterary.com/2025-jglms-y... Wishing everyone a safe and happy holiday season

It's been a *hard* year. I'm guessing that most of the people in your life don't need another scarf? Could be that they (and you, too, maybe?) could use some liberatory nourishment and fortification for this next chapter, though? 1/x

Thanks, Greater Portland, Maine, for putting Nations Apart atop this week’s Maine Sunday Telegram bestseller list. Great way to start out the book’s life.

Tonight -- the on sale day for Nations Apart -- I'll be at @belmontbooks.bsky.social in the eponymous Boston suburb. (Yes, the town was named for the bookstore... Don't argue, I'm a historian.) Come say hello.

There’ still a shared American story, I write in @nytimes.com, and the data shows it isn’t Vance’s ethnonationalist one. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/03/o...

I will be closed to queries beginning November 1st, 2025 so I can catch up on my backlog of submissions. If I requested via DVpit or another pitch event, you are still welcome to send and please put "[pitch event] request" in the subject line.

New newsletter just dropped. Please subscribe if you haven’t already, I don’t send them too often, and they’ve been known to bring you a giggle or a thoughtful nod. This one is about the Kirkus star and finding joy when the world is *gestures*.

I make my case for a shared American story and why its existentially important in this moment on PBS's "Story in the Public Square," produced at Rhode Island PBS with my colleagues at @pellcenter.bsky.social. Now streaming free here: www.pbs.org/video/story-...
