Much to my surprise, Goodreads considers me among its top 10% book reviewers. Mostly I'm writing for myself. Do the reviews help you discover anything new? https://t.co/LtWRMrEPMJ

Tuesday is my last DJ shift for 2025 at ⁦@CHIRPRadio⁩. All month I've been playing my favorite indie releases of the year. What are yours? https://t.co/m6aNYFm4x2

Reading "Frank Zappa's America" by Bradley Morgan of ⁦@CHIRPRadio⁩ is sending me back to the epic Zappa characters Studebaker Hawk and Billy the Mountain, which in my mind look like this.

Lots of scary Halloween fun this week on @CHIRPRadio, including my tarot reading. I drew the two of swords from Chicago’s Oux band. https://t.co/biJY6JGwNc

Music brings me joy. It's why I became a @chirpradio volunteer and a sustaining member. Join me, friends.

I'm one of 260+ @CHIRPRadio DJs and event volunteers; here I am with a promotion team at the Athenaeum Center. CHIRP runs with no federal funds. Please join me as a sustaining member and support Chicago's music scene. https://t.co/CLSnjyxmpE

Who wants summer to be short? Thanks to @joeboydofficial for extending my summer reading and my @chirpradio playlists.

Labor Day weekend wraps up a summer of free live music in Chicago. Listen to @chirpradio.org to survey the scene.

Swifties in the office are all atwitter. Drawing on my @CHIRPRadio listening, I tailored a safe-for-work playlist.

Getting next week’s @CHIRPRadio playlist together. This will be fun!

My first @chirpradio project was to spread the word on its indie music celebration. Now it’s a 2-day event with food, film, crafts and comedy. Use my discount code, CHIRPFRIEND.

Two great places for music discovery: @chipublib and @CHIRPRadio!

Getting ready for my @CHIRPRadio shift with some live music!

Time for a @CHIRPRadio book club!

Before work this morning, I was fund-drive pitching for @CHIRPRadio, Chicago’s listener-supported independent music station. Today is $10 Day, and I’d love it if you could donate $10 to keep the station going strong.

A year ago, I became a sustaining member of @CHIRPRadio. Now I'm asking my network to support this community radio station streaming Chicago artists globally. You will not regret supporting a grassroots nonprofit and you'll have my thanks.

Back on morning drive! Tuesday starts a regular weekly volunteer DJ shift at @CHIRPRadio, the noncommercial alternative music station broadcasting to the North Side and streaming worldwide. Listen and call or text your requests to keep me awake.

The @chipublib offers every album in my 2024 Top 10 for @CHIRPRadio on CD or vinyl. I'm recognized on sight at my local branch, which was my cue to redirect some music-discovery energy to CHIRP.

Election Day is Nov. 5, but make a plan to vote now. Chicago early voting sites are open. If you've moved lately, or if you're finally eligible to vote, prove your current address and cast your ballot. You'll need two forms of I.D., and one should have your new address.
