Welcome to my blog. I’ll do my best to update it regularly (or semi-regularly, at the least…) with news, writing updates, and other assorted thoughts. Read, enjoy, and please share your thoughts and comments. If you’re looking for psychology pieces at the New Yorker, you can find them here. If you’re looking for my old blog about literature and psychology, Literally Psyched, you can find it here.

Where to follow me these days…

September 16, 2024

I don’t really update my website (sorry!!). But if you want to follow me these days, I’d suggest signing up for my Substack, The Leap. It comes out every week or so, and if you become a paying member, you have access to the entire archive. Free members will receive new posts but will not be able to read any old ones.

And if you’re a podcast fan, you can listen along to the weekly podcast I co-host with Nate Silver, Risky Business.

As for what I’m up to… I’m working on my new book! It’s about cheating in games. Any cheating stories you’d like to share? Send them my way at tips [at] mariakonnikova.com. And I’m still playing poker! I’m one of the PokerStars Team Pros and you can usually catch me at the EPT or NAPT stops – or in Vegas for some of the big series. Here’s a photo, courtesy of the amazing team at PokerNews, from my most recent trip, to EPT Barcelona, where I finished fifth in the €3k Mystery Bounty for my biggest career cash.

I usually post trip updates on my IG account, @grlnamedmaria. Thanks for reading, and hope to see some of you over on Substack!
