Lena Dunham Instagram – This cover image—part of an Alice in Wonderland series by my friend Anna Gaskell—has spoken to me since I first saw it at ten years old. Back then, it captured the confusion of being a young girl in a big world. Now it means something else: falling down the rabbit hole and wondering what it will take to emerge, seeing yourself tumble upside down and questioning whether the landscape you once knew is still the same one you’ll be returning to.
I’m always drawn to the hands, reaching weakly, as if they might grab the air and climb back into the light.
Famesick is about that return—the luck, the work, and the moments that remind us we actually want to rejoin the living. Thank you to Anna and my king @teddyblanks for this cover. I can’t wait to hear your stories too. Because that’s what a memoir is: a story that hopefully unlocks some of yours.
