Please support the good folks at L.A. TACO🌴🌮! After I was laid off from L.A. Times, they kindly offered me freelance opportunities. The state of Los Angeles journalism is a mess right now and it’s critical that we keep it alive 🥺

Yesterday was my last day with Los Angeles Times. I’m looking forward to answering the big question ahead. Who will I be now that I am free?

I’m excited to find out while freelance writing + illustrating. You can keep up with me with my newsletter here: bit.ly/marissaevansne…

As yesterday was my official last day at the LATimes, I’ll be dressing up in work attire and glueing myself to my desk in cover letter writing mode. . . If you’re looking for a versatile reporter with a strong work ethic who brings comedic relief to the slack channels, hi. 🙋🏼‍♀️

Today is my *official* last day as a Los Angeles Times staffer, where I served as the first Head of Creator Content in the paper's 141 year history.

Thanks to L.A. Times Guild 🦅, I had a 60 day separation period, and will receive severance pay. But many of my colleagues will be short-changed. 1/

Beyond stunned to find out that my book is a finalist for the California Book Award, one of the highest literary honors in the nation. And WOW to be cited alongside such a brilliant cohort of writers, by such an esteemed panel of judges…somebody pinch me! commonwealthclub.org/events/califor…

You never know where your book will end up. Sam Sifton mentions it in his NYT nostalgia-themed newsletter (and recommends Allison Stewart's WaPo review). He namechecks St Vincent and RuPaul as well and now I'm picturing all of us as Sifton's dinner guests - where's the invite?

I am beyond excited that I get to moderate a panel at LA Times Festival of Books this year!

And among the things I get to talk about are Steely Dan and the Allman Brothers Band. Cannot. Freaking. Wait.
