Really bad at checking this account, mostly because it takes like three whole clicks to switch accounts. That’s a lot of clicks! Anyway, here’s next week’s schedule.

THE SOME WORDS BIG GAME SPECIAL I used to run my own football forum. In the spirit of that, I want to publish some football stuff on the morning of the Super Bowl. IDK how many things I’ll publish. If I like, I’ll probably say yes. HOW TO SUBMIT: email me a piece + a bio to somewordslit@gmail.com DEADLINE: January 23rd, because I want these submitted before the conference championship games
doing a special call for football pieces
