So excited to be sharing this amazing story from James McSherry, one of our finalists for the 2025 Memoir Prize. It’s a heartfelt tale about a young man getting into gambling at an early age, his fierce desire to become a writer and the serendipitous luck that came his way. An inspirational must-read! With artwork by the fantastic Molly Magnell.

ICYMI: We recently published an essay by Mallory McDuff that is one of those essays we’ll be thinking about for a long time. Our readers, too. We’ve already heard from several of you saying how much this piece — about Mallory’s journey contemplating and exploring environmentally friendly end-of-life choices with her students — means to you. If you haven’t read it yet, don’t take our word for it. Check it out for yourself, and if you feel inspired by it, please share it with others to help create the ripple effect Mallory writes about in her piece. Link in bio.
