I’m a writer, editor, and librarian living in San Francisco. I frequently write about addiction and recovery, mental health, drug and healthcare policy, and the medical and legislative issues around cannabis. I also write about media and culture, teens, gender equality, books, and people doing good things for the world. I’m a founding member and associate editor of Anxy Magazine and a contributing editor for Book Riot. I’m currently story producing documentaries, including a documentary about the pediatric use of medical cannabis.

I really wanted to thank you for your article about raising awareness on harassment in the public library. I’ve been a children’s librarian for nearly three years and a month doesn’t go by when somebody makes me feel threatened or uncomfortable. I’ve had men ask me out, try to grope me, and say all kinds of inappropriate things in a branch with no security officer. It’s about time this problem is taken seriously. So again, thank you, and I hope we see some positive change during my tenure here.

I’m so sorry that you’ve had the experiences so many of us have had. It can be truly frightening. I’ve been so pleased with the reaction to the article, though, it’s making me think at least some folks are ready to start this seriously. ❤️
