Hello there, I'm not quitting EVERYTHING. And not the newsletter. But if I do political commentary even here I want it to be more emily dickensonian I guess. "Tell the truth but tell it slant."

Oh please don't quit! I know that tempting feeling, to just quit because I feel like I've done everything useful that I could possibly have done. And, I'm tired. But then it turns out that I'm full of use(less)ful info and connections (and a kind of mentoring) that may still be helpful. I'm sliding into elderhood, I think? Is this what it looks like?

It's great if you're mentoring. Sometimes, though, it's a great idea to quit. Let the fields lie fallow for a while. See what happens.

Oh please don’t quit! Your voice is super important. I read this on the bus cover to cover😉. You made me think and laugh and remember the value of the try. I mean you can quit if you wanna, but I will miss this.❤️❤️❤️

DON’T EVER QUIT!! Your prose is stunning, articulate, hilarious, thought provoking, honest, and undaunted. Your cranky and unapologetic perspective is needed in this in this crazy world, Kelly!
