Recently, an open letter circulated about the Scotiabank Giller Prize protests. This letter has alienated many Jewish and non-Jewish writers who stand for peace and has been signed by over 1,500 people including writers, editors, agents and publishers. My fellow writer, Anna Rosner, and I penned a response advocating for dialogue and coming together to create lasting change. Some others have joined us. Please click through to read the letter in full and add your name.

This past year I had the privilege of being a juror for the Vine Jewish Book Awards. The award ceremony was on October 12. And while our emotions were raw and hearts broken (and still are) after Oct. 7, it felt good to be in a room of people celebrating Jewish stories.

I said it then and will say it again: Now, more than ever, the world needs more Jewish stories.

It just so happens that November is Jewish Book Month. Immerse yourself in Jewish stories this month. You can start with this newly published collection: 18: Jewish Stories Translated from 18 Languages, edited by Nora Gold. Nora is a champion of Jewish storytelling. She is the founding editor of Jewish Fiction .net, an online journal of Jewish short stories. This collection promises a wealth of Jewish storytelling from around the world. I can’t wait for my copy to arrive.

During this scary time, I’m finding myself in the strange position of being a writer without any words. When someone asks me how I’m doing, all I can do is shrug. My Jewish friends all respond the same way. We still have no words.

I find myself eager to make real, meaningful connections with people. To share love and hope. I’ve taken to baking extra challah each week to give away. Baking is my love language. But even more than that, the ritual of mixing, adding, kneading, braiding – I’m leaning into all of it right now. Making challah is one of the ways I prep for a Shabbat shalom. And boy do we need the shalom.

I may not have the words, but these loaves are filled with love and hope, and all my prayers for peace. I may not have the words, but I can share that.
