Thrilled that @hotchpotchliterary.bsky.social published “Bakewell Tarts,” my flash story about a failing relationship (among other things).

The most millennial book I’ve ever read—that is to say, I loved it.

Sunbeam + our stinky shoes. Rea’s dream combo.

“Why, Mr Stevens, why, why, why do you always have to pretend?”

I haven’t teared up from a novel in a long time. This is a book that will stick with me. What a masterpiece.

I’ve been stressing this lately. #noamchomsky #criticalthinking #knowledgeispower #medialiteracy

Just like her dad: nosy. #cats #catlover #catlife

Is there anything cuter (besides me) than a sleepy Rea in a sunbeam by her favorite, ratty scratcher? #cats #catlife #catlover

The Japanese title of this book is Quiet Crystallization, which I prefer, as that’s what the book is really about: people forgetting until they forget that they’ve forgotten. A novel that has stuck with me. Critical reading for our times. #yokoogawa #japaneseliterature #novel #dystopia #covid
