Really energizing weekend at @storystudiochicago.bsky.social Story Board Festival! Great panels by so many amazing people, too many to tag and say thank you! But the things that will stick with me the most was @michaelzapata.bsky.social reminding us that we exist as literary citizens. I love that.

If a company hosts an after work event on a Tuesday evening, they should morally and legally obligated to closing the office for the rest of the week. How can I be expected to work after having one (1) Pilsner with my coworkers last night?

I think there should be more types of chowder. Feels like there’s a lot of untapped potential.

Our Share of Night by Mariana Enriquez! So good. So scary. It’s a masterpiece.
