I have a project ready to be published on Substack- it's a horror novella about Taylor Swift going American Psycho on the Eras Tour but, with recent events, I should probably just write a cooking blog instead. Who wants to make chilaquiles from a recipe written by the whitest woman alive????

I keep thinking that I am done reading about princesses- that my long-term project about contemporary culture is nearing completion, and that I can go back to good books about modern times. I download something good, and then immediately download 9x books about Eleanor of Aquitaine instead.
