Aaron, it is a privilege to be invited to participate in your inner world.
Academia rewards inadequacy while making it unsayable; forbids/makes invisible the very needs it creates and relies upon to reproduce itself.
You are stepping into a new incentive-structure for ways of being/doing. The social/economic stakes are aligned in service of your thriving, for huge new swaths of the spectrum of human expression.
You told the truth of you when it was hard, and that took you out of a life that was no longer the right fit for you. Now, from the ashes, you’re building a new life—this one more beautiful, more aligned with your desires. What an integrity-cleanse. This is really cool.
You have something new and interesting to say. You are a real writer, and it is so good. Keep saying the truth of you, well.
It’s a rare gift to find a person who embodies science and art with such effortlessness. You are SUCH a special human, the head and the heart woven together in such a precious balance. I can’t wait to set aside devoted time to read this memoir in its entirety. Congrats Aaron 💕
Thank you for this offering. As someone currently paralyzed upon entering the publishing fray, your preface feels liberatory. Yours is real writing by a real writer - you are doing it! And that is a beautiful act worthy of celebration. (also Miriam showed me a short video of you playing the Lizst - he would sigh in his grave if he heard it - of contented approval!)
