What is The Bittersweet Weekly?
A weekly newsletter for readers searching for a richer perspective on the bittersweet moments that make up modern life.
A wedding day without your parents, the birth of a child after one has died, holiday dinners with an empty chair, a heart-shaped rock with a tar-filled hole… Beautiful sorrow, painful joy, present longing.
This is The Bittersweet Weekly.
Every Friday, in a thousand words or less, I publish part memoir, part curation, and all heart.
