A lovely thing to wake up to. The Leaving Gene is included in the Bay Area Reporter’s Fall 2026 nonfiction roundup, and Jim Piechota called me a “clever, seductive storyteller.” I’m going to be living off that one for a while. www.ebar.com/story/170245

Just back from the gym, so I’m documenting the pump before it packs its bags and leaves. In two hours I’ll be softer through the middle and wondering where all that definition went. Donuts in the background? Bought them yesterday. Almost gone. Never stood a chance. The shoulders are coming along.

I really should stop tempting the universe. Yesterday I wrote about anticipation. Possibility. The lovely little window before reality gets its vote. Reality voted. Now I Know Better — the follow-up I absolutely did not expect to be writing quite this soon. Read it now on Substack. Link in bio.
