“She pushed me when I need to be pushed, in all the right ways. I also thank my agent, Henry Dunow, who recognized the promise of this project early on and offered abundant sage advice on how to turn it into a book. Dan Jones, the editor of the “Modern Love” column of The New York Times, helped me see back in 2006 that strong reactions to unrequited love are common and very human. My editing sessions with him were great therapy, which he graciously didn’t charge me a dime for. Like many writers,... I wrote this book while juggling a full-time job and family life. I am grateful to Yaddo, the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts, the Millay Colony, and Jentel for concentrated periods of time to focus on my writing. With the volume turned down on the rest of my life, I could nurture this project with patience and clarity. I also thank my employer, SUNY New Paltz, for supporting Unrequited through a pre-tenure fellowship leave and a research and creative projects grant. My students at New Paltz kept me connected to the fast-changing world of social media and the trials of young people in the mating game.MoreLessRead More Read Less
