What Are You Up To?
Hi and welcome!
My name is Meg Ruocco and I’m a second-year Screenwriting MFA Candidate at Feirstein School of Cinema in New York City. When I’m not staring numbly at my computer screen waiting for screenplay inspiration to strike, I like to chat. I chat with my roommates, my friends, my family, and I chat with myself sitting in front of the mirror when I’m home alone. Most of my 20s has been spent chatting about what it means to be a fully-realized person, and how I can get all my “good healing” in before my brain freezes over at age 25.
I also like to wander around bookstores and drink iced coffee in the dead of winter.
A lot of the discussions I’ve had have been helpful, others less so, and I figured it was time to take all those topics of conversation and dump them into one organized junk-drawer I’m calling this newsletter.
What Are You Up To? is a weekly post covering life in early adulthood and all the shit that comes with it. There is no talk of “adulting” here (I’m sick of the word! It’s too cutesy!). Rather, this newsletter is a space for us to commiserate about all the hard points that come with being in our 20s (Or any age, really. I don’t discriminate).
This is a subjective writing space where I cover everything from dating culture (Oo!) to living through systemic upheavals (Oh!) to why seemingly every 20-something is obsessed with curating a perfectly casual Instagram (Aye-ye-ye!).
I hope you’ll stick around and subscribe (It’s free! Down with capitalism!) and we can all figure out what we’re up to together.
