We require heroism of our entertainers. We want them sacrificing themselves to a certain ultimate degree of input. No...

Yay I love having company in hating Pearl Jam!! The only B52's song I know is Love Shack & it's one of my TOP HATED songs. Ever. And yeah, all the others I can think of are solo too - Ray LaMontaigne (nice guy IRL but don't like his voice), KD Lang, Sarah McLachlan... Oh! and MGMT. Sorry kids.

Happy new year Katy! I was thinking of you recently, still working my way through the Small Beer Press back catalogue and read “At The Mouth of the River of Bees” by Kij Johnson which was wonderful and reminded me of your writing in all good ways. 📚💙

"Venus of Chalk" is by Susan Stinson whose books "Martha Moody" and "Spider In a Tree" I gave 5 stars to in 2024 Each of these books is a v unique setting and Stinson nails it every time, but "Spider In a Tree" is my favorite for being a wonderful blend of fiction, history and poetry

"Animal, Vegetable, Miracle: Our Year of Seasonal Eating" by Barbara Kingsolver has a couple of chapters set in my town! It's not what I would usually choose but I'm so glad I read it - it was less sanctimonious than I expected, and very funny, fun, wise, and about things I care about

"James" by Percival Everstt is really smart and well-rendered, successfully doing things like using changes in diction to make social commentary this fast-paced reimagining of Huck Finn told from the enslaved Jim's POV is touching, funny, wise, and deeply disturbing for it's brutal truths

"An Orchid in my Belly Button" is a collection of short stories by Katy Whimhurst @sylphsea.bsky.social suffused with magical realism, these stories are often dark and reflective of modern life, while also infusing kindness, wonder, and an offbeat sense of humor

"Eileen" is one of my favorite Ottessa Moshfegh books, along with "My Year of Rest & Relaxation" A quiet book, driven by internal monologue and set in a small town, yet I was propelled thru by curiosity and interest to know what would happen. the book's wrap-up made me gasp a few times

I fell in love with "The Poet X" by Elizabeth Acevedo, and later read her "Clap When You Land" (gave that 4.5 stars). This novel in verse reminds me of Anne Carson's "Red" for themes of adolescent sexuality, friendships, and independence/development - tho they're v different too

"Either / Or" is one of two Elif Bautman books I read last year (I gave "The Idiot" 4.5 stars). I'll read more as soon as she writes them These setting familiar to me (college, New England, mid-90's) & I relate so much to the protagonist (what she is drawn to, questions she has about the world)

"The Dictionary of Lost Words" by Pip Williams (a bday gift from my mom) is a solid choice for anyone who loved Simon Winchester's "The Professor and the Madman" a well-researched and poignant novel on the making of the OED, weaving a narrative about women that's lost in history written by men

"Pearly Everlasting" by Tammy Armstrong is historical fiction featuring a friendship between a girl and a bear, taking place in remote logging camps of New Brunswick Canada during the Great Depression. It's an evocative blend of realism & fable, and poetic too.

Late winter is the popular request! I wasn’t feeling like I could do this next year because I am organizing two other REALLY BIG events but someone approached me & said she‘d do the fundraising, booking & marketing if I share my files & contacts with her. Which is awesome, hoping that works out. 💪

It’s both a blessing and a curse, yeah? This morning I wrote an email that began “Dear friends at the LCC” (to our Local Cultural Council) and then immediately started singing *the Gourds version* “so much drama in LBC / it’s kinda hard being Snoop D-O double G“ 🤦‍♀️

Fundy National Park, New Brunswick, Canada This was a beautiful steep hike w/ several waterfalls. While climbing up rocks my husband uttered something that sounded to me like "hoo-rah" so I got "Come On Eileen" stuck in my head for several hours (toora, loora, funny how the mind works, eh?).

Yes, the motion and spontaneity are part of their magic (along with the magic made by the kids). 🤍
