Wendi Aarons
Wendi Aarons has contributed to McSweeney’s since 2006, so she probably should get a plaque for god’s sake. She’s a writer who writes a lot of things, but mostly she writes notes left on cars parked by assholes. Her middle-grade novel “Ginger Mancino, Kid Comedian” and her middle-age essay collection “I’m Wearing Tunics Now” are both out in 2022.
