I cleaned my entire kitchen with vinegar and now everything I cook tastes like a fried pickle is this what they mean when they say life hack?

Black and white pic of the upper back/neck/head of someone. “Angel in the MediFold” by Paul Rousseau. In clammy triage room, Nurse says word. Mail. Male function. Have not done that for while. Ha. Wait. No. Malfunction. Needs repair. Nurse says wiggle toes. Can. Not. Nurse says lift hand. Could not after bang-pop-smoke. Can. Not now.

Chalk board with liquid chalk “Local author book signing” Squiggle Design “True story” “Darkly funny” “Energetic page-turner”

Got this chalkboard to address the 4 most common questions/remarks I get at book fairs:

1. Did you write this?
2. Did this actually happen?
3. Is it too sad?
4. I don’t typically read nonfiction

Will it work? Who knows!

If I can be honest from autofocus books. Off white cover with a faint red/orange gnarly looking bird (possibly a phoenix). Selected prose from the 4 years autofocus was an online journal.

A snippet of my contribution “about accidental firearm discharge on campus”

A piece of mine is in the anthology of the summer, out today! IF I CAN BE HONEST from @autofocusbooks.bsky.social.

Incredible collection of writers and their work. My contributor copy is about to be put through the wringer.

The new Autofocus anthology, If I Can Be Honest, is out today! It commemorates the four years of the online journal that morphed into this press. Some of the best formally rich short personal prose you can find anywhere, if we may say so!

Candy bowl is officially full

That’s so ridiculously kind, Elizabeth. Makes all the difference, thank you!

Packing accordingly!

Boxes and boxes of my memoir plus my tuxedo cat making sure everything is in tip top shape thank god for her

Word on the street is some 7,000 people are showing out for this book fair tomorrow.

Monochrome Geralt from the Witcher video games “The Witcher in concert” I think his horse Roach and perhaps the antlers of a leshen are behind him. Def a bit of forest

Tickets locked down!!!

I know I’m biased but friendly fire looks killer in a glorious, fat stack of great books

The organizer said this was the single best meeting they’ve had since the book club started over 2 years ago 🤠

Talked about FF for 2 hours with these lovely people! Me at a meeting room in the library with a circle of book clubbers around me. Emojis over the face to keep anonymity

So basically nothing can go wrong

Visiting a book club that read my memoir today, reminds me of the time after a big reading, this dude hovered around me, rapidly craning his neck as if there was a wall between us he was peeking around.

I was like “hey man” nodding heavily.

Then he said, “your head isn’t even that deformed!”

The Wigleaf Top 50 2025 will be up soon. This is the final one helmed by Shome Dasgupta, who has done so much for the series. Huge thanks @laughingyeti.bsky.social 🙏

Psychedelic postmetal sounds killer!

I do love the reassuring heft of a LP! To my ears a good one is the best tone around.

My SG strangely feeds back on every F# note across the fretboard it’s like magic wood or something.

That sounds killer! My splurge guitar is a custom shop 61 SG with the maestro tailpiece. Huge fan
