The kind of interview I wanted to do was to elicit real thinking, not to confront or challenge or get somebody defensive. The editors themselves put it at four stars, and there was not a critical backlash to the thing. I confess: I probably went too far. The University of Virginia story was not a failure of intent, or an attempt to be loose with the facts. As we all know now, if somebody really wants to hoax you, there’s very little you can do about it.

With his fourth novel, “The Hours,” Cunningham repaid his debt to Woolf, and established himself as one of the country’s most talented and ambitious literary writers. Cunningham set out to write a modern update of “Mrs. He did something almost equally audacious, casting Woolf in his novel and burrowing into her psyche, a choice he knew was presumptuous. Cunningham’s audacity paid off: The novel won a Pulitzer Prize and was adapted into a star-studded feature film and an opera. Cunningham sank into depression, convinced that “it can only be downhill from here,” and struggled to start a new novel.

Born in 1925, O’Connor was a highly regarded fiction writer in the Southern Gothic style. In “Wildcat,” which had its international premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), Hawke pulls from the author’s fiction to tell her story. He and his daughter Maya Hawke, the film's star, wanted to showcase O’Connor’s ability to capture the human condition in prose. “I used her own writing to tell the story.”O’Connor’s writing won several literary awards, and she was featured on a postage stamp in 2015.

Barrymore, who had stepped down as the host of the MTV Movie and TV Awards in May in solidarity with the striking Hollywood writers, was greeted by a wave of critical backlash online after the decision to go back on air. Representatives for Barrymore and her show did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

The Holbrooke award, named for the late U.S. diplomat, is presented by the Ohio-based Dayton Literary Peace Prize Foundation. In 1995, Holbrooke helped broker the Dayton Peace Accords that ended the Bosnian War, a conflict Cisneros has thought of often. Civilians and unborn generations ever after suffer with the shrapnel of that conflict embedded in their psyche like hidden landmines. I just returned from Sarajevo, and I know this is true,” Cisneros said in a statement. Previous recipients of the Holbrooke award include Elie Wiesel, Margaret Atwood and Louise Erdrich.

NEW YORK (AP) — The National Book Awards dropped Drew Barrymore as the host for this year's ceremony on Tuesday, a day after her talk show taped its first episode since the Hollywood writers strike began. “The National Book Awards is an evening dedicated to celebrating the power of literature, and the incomparable contributions of writers to our culture," the organization said in a statement. “I think first and foremost, this is obviously way bigger than just ‘The Drew Barrymore Show’ and writers. Barrymore drew criticism from members of both guilds for crossing the picket line.

☆ Opinion | How the Underground Railroad Got Its Name
▼ + stars: | 2023-09-11 | by ( Scott Shane | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +2 min

Born into slavery outside Washington, D.C., in 1801, he had largely educated himself and bought his own freedom 11 years before. And one day early that August he took up his pen and made literary history, becoming the first to use a phrase that would resound through the subsequent decades of slavery and to the present day: underground railroad. In researching a book about Mr. Smallwood, likely the most fascinating and important African American activist and writer you’ve never heard of, I stumbled upon the solution to an old historical mystery: Where did the Underground Railroad get its name? The answer: from Mr. Smallwood’s newspaper dispatches, overlooked until recently in aging newsprint stacked in a Boston Public Library warehouse. As I read through these extraordinary letters, a rare real-time account of escapes and a lost masterpiece of satire, I came across the first use of “underground railroad” from the Aug. 10, 1842, edition of Tocsin of Liberty, an abolitionist newspaper published in Albany.

But you probably don't need as much money as you think. In the following decades, many government-backed mortgages mandated a 20% down payment. The typical house in the U.S. has a median price of around $400,000. Applying the 20% rule would mean you'd need $80,000. Some states, cities and other groups have programs that award grants to homebuyers that bolster their down payment or help cover closing costs.

Today’s writers are—often by economic necessity—built differently. Of course, some writers have sold insurance or inspected potato chips to make ends meet, but increasingly they take their day jobs seriously. Increasingly, they may not identify as writers exclusively. They may even have business degrees.

Suddenly she knew she wanted to write about him — or a character inspired by him — in her 21st book. The man was “utterly nondescript,” the suspense novelist said in a phone interview. “I could see that his apartment had no softness to it, nothing on the walls,” Jewell explained. “He’s Walter Fair.” She already had a few ideas brewing for the novel that would become her latest best seller, “None of This Is True.” But Walter Fair was, as she put it, “the key that opened the last door” to the rest of the story. A name won’t necessarily serve as a springboard to inspiration, but Jewell always puts a lot of stock in the christening of characters.

A new startup, Bindery, wants to leverage the power of BookTok to let creators become publishers. With Bindery, Kaye wants to cater to authors who don't often get recognized in traditional publishing, and who don't have the social-media audience or the time to consider self-publishing. Thorne spoke with Kaye, and asked him the questions she and other authors had about rights protections for authors.

Before handing pencil and paper to a group of inmates who attended one of his recent writing workshops in jail, Nate Johnson shared three things about his past. He has battled depression and anxiety for much of his life. “And I used to be a prosecutor,” Mr. Johnson disclosed, adding a quick caveat. Immediately after hearing a simple prompt, inmates were told to write furiously, without interruption, for five minutes. The only goal was to turn the sequence of thoughts generated by each prompt into a string of sentences without stopping to think.

"I was not thinking of imperialism when I said that," Francis said about his comments last month.

They were welcomed by the Kremlin, which praised the pope for his knowledge of Russian history. There were dark political years in Russia but the heritage is there, available to all," he said.

There is a behemoth of research on what leads a child to be more resilient than their peers: the presence of at least one stable caregiver, a sense of self-efficacy, learning to cope with stress. A new study shows that creativity can also lead kids to become more resilient. Specific literary techniques, such as perspective-shifting, counterfactual, or "what if," thinking, and causal, or "why," thinking can help kids learn how to deal with difficulties in real life, according to a study published by The Ohio State University in the Journal of Creativity. "There are concerns about the resiliency of American children in the wake of COVID-19 and this sense that many kids are having a hard time in school and in life," Angus Fletcher, lead author of the study and english professor at The Ohio State University, told ScieneDaily.com. "Creativity training can help kids come up with a second plan when things aren't working out for them."

For a language without a physical address that has come frighteningly close to extinction, Yiddish’s will to live seems inexhaustible. And streaming platforms like Netflix have released series, including “Shtisel,” “Unorthodox” and “Rough Diamonds,” fully or partially in Yiddish. Before World War II, approximately 13 million Jews, both secular and religious, spoke Yiddish. They aren’t multilingual, as secular Yiddish speakers always were. Whereas the part of my extended family who fled to New York and Chicago lost Yiddish along the way, Mexican Jews remained more in the community, continuing to use the language even as they remained secular.
