Even though I write for a living, I was really nervous about writing a book. It just seems SO BIG! Having somehow just completed the penultimate chapter (first draft), my biggest takeaways so far: 1) make a schedule and 2) set word count goals as you go. (Oh and caffeine…) — PolitiTweet.org

Several days, several thousand words, and another chapter later, I am back to work at @NPR, and headed to @Yale later in the week for this - which I’m really looking forward to: — PolitiTweet.org

In my Christian school education, we talked about Christian Resistance and abolitionist figures - but I don’t recall any serious discussion of the fact that Christian societies, institutions, and individuals also promoted Nazism and slavery. — PolitiTweet.org

@megpat @svershbow @lauraswanson___ So I assume your last name goes straight back through your matriarchal line? Cool! — PolitiTweet.org

@megpat @svershbow @lauraswanson___ (My aunt is a judge, BTW - no one’s but her own! It was a joke about the challenge of navigating this choice) — PolitiTweet.org

Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon

@megpat @svershbow @lauraswanson___ Ok but what does that mean in terms of last names?! — PolitiTweet.org

@AndrewLSeidel Hey - question for you. Could you DM me contact info? Thx! — PolitiTweet.org

@svershbow @lauraswanson___ My aunt said, “I’m either going to be my father’s chattel or my husband’s so I might as well be my father’s.” I chose husband because I intended to have kids. No good solution, I agree. — PolitiTweet.org

@laurapy Totally. Speaking as a mom (not a journalist; I don't cover education) I think it's great for some kids. But I don't like absolutism about much of anything. — PolitiTweet.org

Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon

@laurapy My middle schooler had open house night this week. Every single one of this teachers had such a high level of expertise, in eight different subjects - I wouldn't dream of trying to replicate that or pretend for a moment that I could. If some parents can, that's truly amazing! — PolitiTweet.org

@ktrayn78 @kristenrudd no argument there — PolitiTweet.org

Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon

@kristenrudd I think the key is knowing when you need a professional and when you don't, and that's a judgment call in all cases. Needing one doesn't denigrate or demean the non-professional work. But there are differing levels of expertise and there's no sense in pretending otherwise. — PolitiTweet.org

Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon

@kristenrudd All (good) parents are their children's teachers in various ways, and they are certainly real. Are they professional educators, though? No. Much like when I bandage my children's wounds or care for them while sick, I am doing real and vital work, but it doesn't make me an RN. — PolitiTweet.org

What’s the hottest completely non-sexual thing anyone’s ever said to you? Mine - my husband, when I was worrying about someone screwing me over: “Don’t worry - when I need to, I can be a mean lawyer.” I think about it kind of a lot. 🔥🌶😅 — PolitiTweet.org

Brian and I have covered some horrific stuff together: storm devastation, mass shootings in Las Vegas, Parkland, and Pittsburgh. Proud of his brave, good work in Ukraine and glad to see him back home and doing so well. 💗 — PolitiTweet.org
