“I’ve heard this episode at least five times, but Chauncey yells out possibilities anyway, not one of them the least bit matchable…”

One of my favorite writers with a nuanced & engrossing story.

New CNF today. Head over to Reckon to read "H.O.M.E." by Mireya Gonzalez-Looby.

“He ate the meat and roe with his tongue, straight out of the fancy silver bowls they brought them in. Like a dog. He lapped the warm blood off his palms, licked roe from under his nails. Fat and grease dribbled down his chin. He giggled at his reflection in the bowl. Look at me Paul, look at what…”

I reactivated my account to share this extraordinary story about obsession by @dluntz.bsky.social - I hope a few someone’s will see my share & read it. A quote to follow….

Pat, thank you 💛💚🩵

No worries! Happy New Year!

Wonderful! Fingers crossed!

Pseudo Myth Again, I've confused the horseman for the horse, the artillery of a muscle for a minor hero's sling. What we do in the name of obedience, not thinking wonder has anything to gain over wit. The wheel, at times, will envy the hands that clutch it. The horse, the inoperable reigns. Trust me. I, who have neither head nor heart, whose name is not mine but Girl. What's torn through the center is as good a guide as any.

Sharing the opening poem, “Pseudo Myth” from MORE FLOWERS, out with @triohousepress.org on February 1st, 2026! 🌺
