I’m part of a discussion on Banned Books with other writers through Teachers and Writers Magazine. I’ll be discussing the impact Harriet the Spy had on my development as a person and a writer. If you would like a zoom link message me.

MR was such a delight to talk to. This was probably my favorite of the three stories we read this week. Perhaps *because* I'm in academia? Now to share it with my co-workers.

I forgot the name of that one, but yes!! I was thinking of it in combination with Endless, but I'm ancient, so I was all "what was the name of that one that came before...?"

According to Chicago Public Library, I saved $16,217.36 since I began using the library. When I say I can't buy all the books/movies/music I'd like because I'd be broke, I'm not kidding. (This doesn't include the suburban branch or my work account.) Support your local library🤘

Given my previously stated desire for authors to lean into their own special weirdnesses and let their unique freak flags fly, you can perhaps guess how I feel about the idea that the people outsourcing their thinking to spicy autocomplete are contributing to the McDonaldization of culture.

There should be lots of weird little things. Weird regional cheeses. Wine styles that aren't what Karen likes; don't make me live in a world that without white riojas, or teeth-enpurpling Eger wines. Salsa that varies with regions and the seasons! Things that aren't for me, but have their niche!

THE EXORCIST X DONNIE DARKO Chris is plagued with seeing shadow people, but an encounter with a powerful Eldritch being known as The Hatman, leaves him possessed and desperate to exorcise the entity attached to him before he loses control and becomes a demon himself. #BluePit #H #Q #📖
'Hat' - 81K, Cosmic Horror Querying Soon. 
Pitch: Chris is obsessed with light and nature's patterns after a Shadow Person nearly killed him as a child. He tries to focus on important things, like finding a way to get his goth girl crush Mel to share a joint or two. Until the Hatman. He imbues Chris with his essence, bonding them. If Chris was haunted by Shadows before, now he is possessed.
