Talking to a guy in the airport. In the furniture business. I start to suggest he read Factory Man by @papergirlmacy. “One of my top five all time books! You know Beth Macy?! I got goosebumps! I’m kinda star struck!”

Excited about the launch of my friend Tim Mason's new book, The Nightingale Affair, the second installment of Victorian detective Charles Fields' adventures. The Darwin Affair was great. This will be too. https://t.co/aCpjzwa84h

@HolyCrapJButler @SportIntegrity Michelle, with respect, this is simply wrong. Not to mention needlessly offensive. My book with neuroscientist Larry Young The Chemistry Between Us, discusses the brain science involved. There are other good sources as well. People suffer with dysphoria. It’s not a joke.
