The "About to Commence" Edition
Dear Readers,
This weekend caps off the six-week whirlwind—which kind of turned into a maelstrom— of travel.
So you get a break on this long weekend, because I’m giving you authorization to kick back and truly try to relax.
And I’m giving myself a break and letting you get right to it. Less writing for me, more reading time for you. Politics, Pop Culture and everything in between— the essential list of the the week’s most important content about women.
If you subscribe, every Sunday morning The LZ Sunday Paper will show up in your inbox.
Follow me for some fun and / or important things in between Sundays, mostly on Instagram.
If you have a story you think I may have missed, email me at LZSundayPaper@gmail.com.
And if you’d like to tell a friend about the Paper, please do:
Welcome, June! Nice to see you again!! Tell your friends January and February we’ve seen quite enough of them for a while.
See you next week!
