31 December 1995. Still the perfect goodbye.
The final Calvin and Hobbes cartoon. The entire page is mostly white as they're in the winter snow. The pair is walking with a sledge, nicely duffled in in scarves, hats, gloves. Calvin delightedly exclaims 'wow, it really snowed las night! Isn't it wonderful?'. Hobbes follows up with 'Everything familiar has disappeared! The world looks brand-new!' -- A new year... a fresh, clean start!' adds Calvin. As they look over the landscape, Hobbes observes 'it's like having a big white sheet of paper to draw on!' -- 'A day full of possibilities!' Calvin affirms. They get ready on their sledge and Calvin tells his friend 'it's a magical world, Hobbes, ol' buddy... let's go exploring!', and the pair sledges off into the wintery landscape.

Today I saw three kids -- boys, maybe 12, 13, 14 years old -- riding bikes, and they were holding fishing poles and one had a bucket, and they said "hello!" as they passed. Then I, a Normal Adult, yelled after them, "Looking for Ray Brower down by the train tracks?" and they uhh rode away faster.

I think this amount of library checkouts (& recent @bookshop.org purchases) is fine, right? 🫠

3. Utter Horror!
Halloween horror!

Horrifying: 
1. Floating skull
2. Evil fog
3.Slime fiend

Utterly horrifying: 
1. Floating skull who borrows books and never returns them.
2. Evil fog with some really awful opinions (it is saying we've got the internet so we don't need libraries")
3. Slime fiend who browses bookshops then buys online

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House. Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity. They are not the same.

When you have 20+ books checked out of the library, but you think now might be a good time to re-read IT for the umpteenth time. 🤷🏼‍♀️ #librarianproblems

My cartoons for this week’s @theguardian.com books #holiday #vacation #reading
A happy book says:
I'm so proud you chose me as your holiday read! I can't wait to start entertaining you! 

A smiling drink says:
And I'm right here! Ready to keep you cool and refreshed while you read! 

A gleeful phone adds:
Yay! So great! How about we kick things off with a load of the same old rubbish you always look at, plus some gloomy news and mavbe a few emails from work!! 

Hours later...

The drink and book lie untouched. 

The phone is out of view but a bubble reads:
Scroll Scroll Scroll Scroll Scroll 

The book says
“I hate that guy.”

I think we can at least all agree that if you have a text alert tone longer than two seconds you should be thrown into a lightless, soundproof oubliette.

Proud aunt moment - my 13-year-old niece brought “Salem’s Lot” with her to read while on vacation with my parents. 🥹 (I had to remind Mom that I’d already read it at least once when I was that age. 🤷🏼‍♀️) #attagirl #startemyoung #futurehorrorwriter @stephenking.bsky.social

I think nearly the entire Horror genre boils down to the idea that it is worthwhile to fight until your very last breath. Even, and maybe especially, when there is no hope.

Gutted. This was my last best hope for this manuscript. As hard as it is to accept, I think the time has come to shelve it. 😞 #amquerying #writingcommunity #writesky

Where am I mentally? A neighborhood friend posted a photo of a foot-long mozzarella stick you can order at a bar and I sighed and said to myself, “this could save me.”
