I write what I want to read, and what I want to read is detailed town meeting minutes and creepy crematorium cults. | www.jrhandfield.com
My only contribution to today's Taylor Swift discourse is that it's a great day to read my story about an alternate universe Taylor Swift who runs Wyomissing like a dictator.

It also has zero references to Travis Kelce's genitals.

Last night, an adaptation of my piece "Break the Grass Ceiling" was performed as part of a writing showcase. It's about the first Sasquatch elected to Congress.

I AM SO PSYCHED TO BE IN THE DAILY DRUNK AGAIN!

This is one that I've had bouncing around for a while and The Daily Drunk is really the perfect home for it.

I have a piece up as part of the Blackstone Valley Heritage Center / Worcester Writers Collective this week. The story will be on the trail later this week, but we held a storytelling kickoff yesterday and it was awesome! tinyurl.com/wwchandfield

Been quiet over here since I'm trying hard to, like, finish another novel and query the one I've done.

1) Got my @tacobellquarterly.org submission in this morning. 4th time's a charm?

2) I have a piece going up in a public place next week, which is super cool. It's about Emma Goldman.

Once more for the evening crowd.
VOLCANO GIRLS: Teenage girls are turning into literal volcanoes, spewing magma in perpetuity. A journalist (and witness to 1st event) sets out to interview key individuals and connect the dots across a fractured society; oral history-style.

Comps in next skeet.

okay here's the thing, if you're an artist, a writer, any kind of creator: we all need to get A LOT weirder now, to fill the gap of weird Lynch has left behind.

are you with me on this
