I’m into you. I’m in your DMs. I’m into all that. I’m in ternet. I’m in lust. I’m in a meeting soon. I’m in tongues. I’m in Quixote. I’m in your head. I’m inchoate. I’m inbetweenstates. I’m in péril. I’m in distress. I’m in a dress. I’m at this address.

Here are the #WIPSnips words for December 8th through December 14th!

cannot begin to tell you how happy I am to have stumbled upon the Paris building shared by metal music fans and the union for metal workers, what a delight

A creepy story about an Etruscan mirror that you might like. It was published in an obscure journal, so I hope it can find more readership this way.

Oft called a fruitcake, does that give me the right to be daily doused with cognac in a dark corner up through to Christmas day?

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.

Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.
