Kids in my neighbourhood keep scamming me. They know I’m a soft touch. I’ve spent $26 on popcorn and chocolate bars that never arrive. I want my snacks but I have to respect the hustle

Gosh darn it. I went to AWP in 2018 and never really considered going back, but so many great people are there this year, in one of my favourite cities.

Here’s my unsolicited life advice: whenever I go grocery shopping, I always buy Italian parsley or green onions or both. They usually cost less than $2 and between the two of them you can make pretty much any meal feel 85% fancier and more delicious
