Happy Holidays! My gift to you this season is an adventurous, post-apocalyptic story about stories; how they keep our souls fed and connected. It's been brought to life by the amazing team at @escapepod.org, performed by the wonderful Rosie Sentman. Listen to the story or read it for free here:

Inspired by @cjsubko.bsky.social's starter packs this morning, I put together a starter pack of specfic publications, zines and podcasts. It's 50 slots and I think I need to put together one more pack to get everyone I wanted to fit in there.

Check it out and follow some zines! go.bsky.app/4FbEmZU
