The first time Rebecca Mead tried wild swimming, she was shocked: “The cold was searing,” she writes. “I could feel the muscles of my upper back constricting; my clavicle and upper ribs seemed ready to shatter, and my toes and fingers started to numb, despite my high-tech gear.” And yet, it was “a starkly beautiful experience.” At the link in our bio, read Mead on the half a million Britons who are skipping the heated pool and rediscovering the pleasures of lakes, rivers, and seas—even in winter.

Then she won again the following two years—a feat no science-fiction writer had ever achieved. “Do I want to let people call me the next Atwood, or whatever? They always want you to be the next such-and-such. But I am still going to write what I am going to write,” she says.

“I began submitting to The New Yorker by dropping off a ‘batch’ of around eight cartoons to the magazine’s offices, on West 43rd Street,” @lizadonnelly writes. “Two years later, in 1979, I sold my first cartoon to The New Yorker. My mother did not live to know that the inspiration she had given me when I was seven years old would lead to this.” At the link in our bio, Donnelly reflects on drawing (“It was what I did. It was who I was.”), growing up in Washington, D.C. in a time of political turmoil, and escaping the trappings and expectations that accompanied being a young woman in the 1960s.
