Looking through some public domain art and I found this. It is an 1871 piece captioned “absolute silence reigns supreme in all its sad majesty” and it is my spirit animal

This morning I finished “When We Were Feral” by @shastagrant.bsky.social Truly remarkable. As someone who teaches young people, with two little ones at home, it ripped my heart out in a way only a great book can. Maggie and Erin and Sarah will live with me for a long time moving forward. Masterful.

After an 8-year hiatus, I starting writing again last spring. I’m now on the third edit of a novel. Treated myself to a new desk to keep the momentum going.
Warm-lit desk with thrift store art and lamp, and slightly-chaotic photo wall behind.

Just finished this. A beautifully brutal novel by @miriamgershow.bsky.social Her ability to find the voices of such a disparate yet connected cast is inspiring. And that final line has shades of Gatsby in its brilliance. Highly recommend to my 4 followers.

I got my copy of The Analog Teenagers today! Born at the tail end of ‘82, I know this is going to speak directly to me. @stanchion.bsky.social @abigailmyers.bsky.social
