Hello MOTHER TONGUE! Hello GLORIA!
A (re)introduction and my first 30% off subscription sale!
I’m on vacation so I’m going to make this one short, sweet, visual AND worth it. Recently excerpts from a new essay in MOTHER TONGUE Issue 8, “In Sluts We Trust” went viral (including being shared by Emily Ratajkowski, welcome to the Slut Club @emrata!) bringing lots of new followers to Instagram and free subscribers here. Hi! And GLORIA adapted my essay about alimony and it brought lots of you here too. Hi hi!
Let me introduce myself: I’m Kimberly Harrington, not Kim, never ever Kim. And HONEY STAY SUPER is a pro-big-life-changes newsletter, even when things get messy. Especially then. In the past ten years I’ve swung for the fences as often as I’ve been scraping along the ground, but at least I’m never bored. I’m a long-time creative director, an essayist and two-time published author, and an all-time silly goose.
I’m a woman over 50. A mother of young adults. An official ex-wife. Also: A dumb bitch. A relentless trying-to-be-better-er. A life-long late bloomer. And you’ll rarely catch me doing what I should be doing at my age or stage, whatever the hell that means.
I’ve been writing this newsletter for almost seven years but it only started to genuinely connect with readers when my life imploded, escaping my iron grip of control (whom amongst us, et cetera), and I started writing truthfully and vulnerably—and sometimes rage-fully and humorously—about all of that.
The essays I feel best represent HONEY STAY SUPER are below.
For the first time ever I’m discounting an annual subscription by 30%! Because if you liked what I said elsewhere I’d love it if you stayed here and read even more. I’m shameless that way. Baby, I’m a writer.
Since 2018 I’ve only had three subscription sales (all 20% off), so take advantage of this one while you can! It’ll only last as long as I’m on vacation 😌
