Reading some stuff, including my piece “A Game of Telephone Is All I’m After Here, Honest” in the new issue of @SoFloPoJo tomorrow. A company of creative folks is a good company to keep this week.

A difficult & dark day. World-changing for all, likely world-ending for some. Dropping my kids off at school, I urged them, simply & impossibly, to feel their despair but not to give in to it. Holding space for you today; if no one’s told you they love you today, I love you.

My latest underworld ramblings: many thanks to @SoFloPoJo for including it in their #35, and a real treat to appear alongside so many folks, including some I’ve had the privilege to know via @ballastjournal like @GJMartini, @fklein907 and Candice M Kelsey

@TaylorFranson I’m a fan of the newer @theritterpod (@mznieboer, an old friend, is a cohost): winsome, zany, and pop-culturally inflected 😎

One week after we released issue 2.4, and we’re feeling the love. Get misty with us by (re)visiting the issue’s editorial from @sarajudym. https://t.co/uhOPM9K5wd
