It's long because Cleves's claim is much, much more bizarre than it looked on first reading. I'm not going to bury the lede here.

Fuzzy Gerdes @fuzzyco.com · 08/06/2026In book-books, I re-read the Dark is Rising series every couple of years and I think it holds up for that age group. Maureen Johnson’s YA is great. All Scott Westerfeld is great and the Uglies series has lots of sporty aspects. 120

Fuzzy Gerdes @fuzzyco.com · 24/04/2026Not a deep counter-argument, but we saw The Merry Wives of Windsor at Chicago Shakes last night, which was Shakespeare spinning off a popular character into his own franchise. In 1597. So, there’s nothing new in the world? (Then again, it’s considered one of the weaker Comedies, so maybe it’s apt?) 210
