What is celebration?
Let’s party.
Celebration is a newsletter in the spirit of a party abuzz with good conversation. That means the topics are broad and eclectic.
One week, a post might be about Artificial Intelligence, the next a firsthand account of my experience with Tourette Syndrome, another still a reflection on aging. One thing all posts have in common is that they are written by me, Amy Federman—WSJ bestselling ghostwriter, Philadelphian, and ambiverted party attendee.
Subscribe for thoughtful vignettes about the good stuff—the things that make life worth living—and stay for curious essays that seek to understand the world better. Expect lots of em dashes.
What’s the vibe of this party?
At this party, will we celebrate things that give us a lift and elevate the human experience? Yes.
But will we sometimes use the celebratory framing as a backhanded way to complain about things that are irksome and corrosive to the human experience? Also yes. (So don’t worry, curmudgeons.)
Any good party is abuzz with lots of conversation topics, teeming with a throng of different energies—from laughter, to singing, to whispered gossip, to yelling, to wild gesticulations (yes, hand gestures are their own energy), to earnest exchanges, to drunken lumbering, to someone crying in the bathroom—and we’re going to make space for them all. Cheers.
Pssst, tell your friends.
The more the merrier.
