Phil, these notes are so wonderful and I love reading them! Thank you for so beautifully sharing all your accomplishments and thoughts. Most importantly - huge Congratulations to you and Andrew on your engagement! So happy for you both! <3
I loved this post, Phil!!! I completely agree "going back to normal" isn't the right mindset. There was a lot of growth this past year! I loved seeing these photos of you & Andrew - thanks for sharing these little slices of your life :)
What a year! And what an accomplishment to have the dissertation and novel in the rear view mirror (or mostly so). And of course, Congratulations to you and Andrew!
Really enjoyed this one. What a great summary and wonderful insight to your thoughts during this time.
Is the link to Novel Excerpt supposed to take us to an actual excerpt from your novel? It seems to only go to the same page as shown in the summary for September 2021?

Thank you, Katie!! Miss our days of being cubicle neighbours! <3

Some growth, but not nearly enough mahjong with you and Christian!! Hopefully we can rectify that soon.
so amazing to have met you this year, Phil. And so proud to call you a friend and peer as you write your heart away!
Getting to know you has been a true highlight of this year. My writing would be in shambles if it wasn't for all our workshopping!

Thanks, Doug! It'll certainly be a relief when the novel is (hopefully) fully in the rear view mirror -- sooner rather than later.
You’ve had quite a year, cuz. When’s the wedding?
Hey Cousin Ricky! Hoping for Summer 2022, if the fates allow.

Haha, I'm not letting you get a glimpse of the book that easily... at least not yet. It's just a screenshot of the cover page.
I'm so proud of you, and congratulations on your engagement! <3
Thank you, Katie! Hope everything is great in New York. Really want to get back there for a visit sometime soon.
