I can’t believe the QR code worked!

I make Slate’s daily word game, Pears. I’ve also made a couple of mini-crosswords.

I co-hosted Slate’s Culture Gabfest in September, discussing The Girlfriend, Spinal Tap II, and Robert Redford.

I continue to make the podcast Charm Offensive with Isaac Butler.

For the New Yorker, I went to Oakland to profile the chef Samin Nosrat.

For Slate, I co-wrote a package about the 25 Greatest Picture Books of the Past 25 Years, including a Q&A with Mo Willems, another Q&A with Matt de la Peña and Christian Robinson, and a third Q&A with the “real Olivia” from Ian Falconer’s Olivia books.

For the New York Times, I wrote about the final book in Philip Pullman’s trilogy The Book of Dust, and my own Lyra.
