Advice Column Appreciation Post
plus: we're kosher but my son loves chicken nuggets, help
Dear Readers!
I️ love advice and advice columns. I️ write one for The New Yorker. It’s called Dear Pepper. I️ desperately need questions for it. Will you write one in? The email is dearpepperquestions@gmail.com . Thank you. You will be kept anonymous. Here is a Dear Pepper from the vault.
And here is an excerpt of my first graphic novel, A Bintel Brief, which is adapted from a popular New York Yiddish socialist advice column of the same name.
My secret (whoops, not anymore) is that I’m more naturally an advice-asker than an advice-giver. So for paid subscribers: a question I️ asked myself because I️ had no idea how to answer it -- about imposing kashrut on my son who is a picky eater. And an answer I️ sketched out for myself a few months later after solving the problem as best I could.
