While I continue to focus on building experience – and successes – as a grant writer, I did write a few pieces for publication in May. Maybe you’d like to read one of them.

Reading Down a Crooked Road
I read 13 books in May. Some of them, like On Tyranny, were very short. But sometimes, tiny is mighty. Other notable reads included joining the rest of the world in reading Percival Everett’s James. It took me a while to wrap my head around what the book actually was (it is not just Huck Finn with a different POV) but once I adjusted my expectations, James truly lived up to the hype. There was also a powerful biography of a teenaged refugee in A Hope More Powerful Than the Sea.
I read my way through the Bahamas and continued catching up on my & Other Stories subscription books with Fire Exit – ironically, a book originally published in English in America, but one I had never heard of before. Finally, I read the latest book, Memorial Days, from one of my favorite writers, Geraldine Brooks. If you’re curious about the rest of the books I read in May, you can look me up on Goodreads.
And that’s May in the books.
