As another non-idiot who self-published a novel, thank you for this acknowledgement. (Though I couldn’t ever even get an agent to respond to an email, so maybe I am an idiot.)

Yeah, not sure I’ve ever wanted any character to get punched more than his Euphoria character. (Though it didn’t really change him when it happened!) Look forward to watching Frankenstein.

I just watched Kiki’s Delivery Service and after seeing Jiji eat pancakes, I fully expect the same behavior here.

Look forward to watching, though I’m going to guess this partly includes the reveal that food in Porto is astoundingly good!

Thanks. Never would have found this since it’s not in the app. And knowing how fast you are at xwords, this is likely the only time I’ll ever beat you haha! (Though I doubt you were going for speed. I wasn’t since it’s a new game.)

That’s so great. I saw Hala Alyan read on a program with Ilya Kaminsky one night. Really incredible experience.

These delays are giving me flashbacks to 90s/00s when I traveled b/w Denver/Chicago/East Coast via Amtrak a couple times a year, no sleeper. Very different world, stayed up playing cards in the cafe or drinking in the smoking car. Nightmarish to even contemplate today, but it was a great time then.
