Ms. Bassist

Today’s DEAR SUGAR question was posed by our very own Elissa Bassist. As her question revolves around writing, we figure now would be a good time to share some of our favorite Rumpus essays by Ms. Bassist:

“A Baker’s Dozen of My Feelings about David Foster Wallace’s Infinite Jest”

“The Exit Interview: A Conversation with My Ex-Boyfriend”

“How to Move to San Francisco”

“Have I Earned These Clichés”

And that’s just a few, find all of Elissa’s Rumpus work here, and be sure to visit her website too.
