The events and scenarios described in Hibiscus Tea are fantasy fiction. But I tried to write the poems in a way that matched the styling of poetry about love and loss and rediscovering joy. Because that’s what it’s all about. It’s one of my favorite things I’ve ever written.

Thinking about the similarities between the ending of The Diplomat S4 and the ending of Zach Stone is Gonna Be Famous.

Bob the boson spun up to the arugula factory and looked inside. Was this vegetable a lettuce or was it not? Surely it couldn’t be both. Somewhere, a cat mewed sadly (or not). . . . Anyway, looking forward to what everyone comes up with for #MicrofictionMonday!

@GetFalcontext 6.0 finds the places your book names, which chapters each one is in, and where each chapter is set: guessed from the text, or set by hand. (Pro)

Been listening to the latest album from The Chilling Alpine Adventure. Across this and all of his projects, Jessy Ribordy’s writing endlessly impresses and inspires me. Though often cryptic, the emotion of it somehow seeps into you.
