Happy Anniversary! You made me think more about what to call my substack. I understand we get only one opportunity to change it, so I'm giving it lots of thought. I like the name you chose for yours.

I keep meaning to write a post about the reasons why the name is what it is. Stay tuned! I didn't know we get one chance to change -- yikes!

Bravo! Always love “visiting” you -- what are you reading, fiction-wise?

Likewise, my friend! I spent most of July immersed in The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt. It's one of my "big books" for Suzan Jackson's (Book by Book) annual Big Book Summer Challenge. I'll likely -- hopefully -- finish it tonight and am really engrossed in it. Don't know how it languished on my shelves as long as it did. Next up is going to be Signal Fires by the incomparable Dani Shapiro.
