The day I glided down the Gowanus Canal, featuring Driftwood Dredger @jos_prol and Gowanus Gondolier @bowerybird . To their relief, I did not fall in.
I pestered Jos for a profile writing assignment. He is my age and also made a career transition in 2024. His is by far more dramatic (and more fruitful).
Out of mud, the lotus blossoms. Out of Lavender Lake, Leviathan rises.
@davidmasello may as well have taken me through the wardrobe into Narnia! Free public events at the private @nationalartsclub in a historic townhouse 🤯 (On that day, there was a talk by a black rodeo photographer, just on the heels of Beyoncé Bowl) Pictured (L-R): festive decor! rock paintings! calf liver!
I'm ashamed to say I had many Constance Wu moments in the past few weeks as time was running out, but thank you to each and every one who made time, offered meals and sent their well wishes 🫶
