Still Grabbing Candy? I've Got Even More Treats Coming Your Way!
Halloween, Podcasts, Book News, Professor Igel, Election Day, OH MY!
ELECTION DAY:
Today is Election Day, and I wanted to take a moment to remind you how important it is to make your voice heard. Last weekend, I voted early with my son and husband, and it felt empowering to take part in shaping our future together.
At BOY MEETS GIRL®, we’ve always believed in using our platform to inspire change, especially by encouraging the youth to get out and vote. Your vote matters, and it’s one of the most powerful tools we have to create the world we want to live in.
If you haven’t voted yet, now’s the time! Make sure to head to the polls and use your voice for what you believe in.
HALLOWEEN:
I know today may feel heavy for many of us, so I thought I’d share something a little lighter. This year for Halloween, I went as Taylor Swift, and DJ Blue Steel—you guessed it—was Travis Kelce!
For the past 10 years, we’ve always dressed up as a family with our son, Dylan (who, if you follow me, you know just turned double digits this year!). He dressed as a football player (Aidan Hutchinson is a defensive end for the Detroit Lions) this time, and for the first time, we didn’t manage to get a family photo together. But I did snag one with him and Rocky in her Bears jersey ;) I have to admit, I’m feeling a little sad not having our family shot.
But here’s a quick look back at some of our costumes through the years, and maybe next year, we’ll get that family photo back if my then 11-year-old lets me lol!
BOOK NEWS:
It’s an honor to be included in this powerful anthology with 75 incredible authors and advocates, sharing what it means to be Jewish and how Jewish life has changed since October 7th. Brought together by and published under
, the paperback of ON BEING JEWISH NOW is available wherever books are sold. Already #1 on Amazon, with a sold-out launch at @zibbysbookshop! ✨ All proceeds go to @theartistsagainstantisemitism , a 501(c)(3) founded after October 7th by a group of Jewish authors (including me). ✨Disclaimer: Though we don’t all share the same political views, we stand united in the fight to #STOPHATE and #STOPANTISEMITISM.
Join me on 11/19/24 at 7 pm for an Author talk with Barri Leiner Grant
, Jane Rosen, Amy Blumenfeld, Rachel Levy Lesser, and David Christopher Kaufman. We will be at the Bedford Playhouse tickets here.PODCASTS:
I’m about to hop on for another podcast interview in just a few minutes, but I wanted to make sure you didn’t miss my recent podcast appearance on Retail Relates! It was an amazing conversation, and I’d love for you to check it out. I’ll keep this short today, but stay tuned for a more in-depth overview in my next newsletter! Please leave a note if you listened to their podcast on their podcast comments and if you DM me that you did. I will be sending you a special present in the mail : )
