coming of age at 20

What is it?

“coming of age at 20” is essentially what is labeled on the tin. Growing up, I was fascinated with the whole girl blogger idea. The one that stood out most to me, and which also reflects this mission statement the most, was Julie Powell, who creates a blog to document her journey through the recipes of of one Julia Child’s cookbooks. She’s very candid about her successes and struggles, something I really admired, and find I still admire in an age of social image perfectionism. (Also I highly recommend watching Julie and Julia). There’s a lot of talk of how 11-18 is the coming of age period with a lot of media representation, but what about the actual young adults? I didn’t feel like I truly started to grow until I turned 20. Thus, this newletter was born.
