I was asked to re-share "The Ghastlygun Tinies." The story ran in MAD Magazine in 2018. I *wish* it weren't still relevant.
This is the first page of "The Ghastlygun Tinies" from MAD Magazine. The full text reads: "A is for Alice the young science wiz B is for Brian cramming for a quiz C is for Connor in his English class D is for Dana who had a hall pass E is for Eve who's idealistic F is for Frank, more than a statistic G is for Greg who was caught unawares H is for Hiro who needs more than prayers I is for Ike learning Shakespeare by rote J is for Julie who's too young to vote K is for Kara who's weary today L is for Liam reading Hemingway M is for Megan who's studying math N is for Nathan who's caught in the path O is for Owen learning about states P is for Paula protecting classmates Q is for Quinn whose life had just begun R is for Reid, valued less than a gun S is for Stephen who's planning for prom T is for Tina who's texting her mom U is for Una who ID's his face V is for Vincent who's sheltered in place W is for Wendy, kind beyond belief X is for Xena whose dad's crushed by grief Y is for Yuri whose time is now passed Z is for Zoe who won't be the last" The article was written by Matt Cohen and illustrated by Marc Palm.

Chapters 1-3 of my dissertation are done and turned in. Waiting on reviews and edits and a proposal date. Now I can relax for a bit and drown myself in reading for pleasure. Currently reading the Empyrean Series. Book one was great and on to book two... cuz dragons!
