In the end, I love her story because it reassures me that I’m not the only person out there struggling

with a lifetime of small regrets and fears of passing them on to my child. Megan writes with a deft

hand, making us laugh and cry in good measure. Read our Q&A with Megan Mayhew Bergman to learn more

about “Housewifely Arts”. But above all read her story. Then call your mother.

On November 11th, Hannah Tinti’s short story “Milestones” was read by performance artist Laurie

Anderson for “Selected Shorts,” presented by Symphony Space here in New York. The theme of the night

was “Literary Mix Tape,” or stories written based on a piece of music. Hannah’s story, based on the

Miles Davis song of the same name, was read alongside “Wunderkind” by Carson McCullers. (Not too

shabby, Tinti.) The podcast is available for free through PRI’s Selected Shorts.

storm troopers click here! Listen closely to the very end when Seffer says, “…a grand success.”

Thoughts as to what he is referring to are most welcome. Congratulations, Hannah!
