Starting!

Thank you to everyone who attended and read at the reading last night! Everyone was great and I ended up reading a little bit of a novel-in-progress, which was fun. Also thanks to everyone who stuck around for an hour plus to talk about beer, video games, etc. 🦤

We’ll be back on Monday with new literature (kicking off the new wave with something truly incredible from Will Cordeiro!) but until then, please take some time to read issue #2! I’ll also be catching up on subs over the next 4 days, so keep an eye on your inbox!

Check out Michael’s new story, which he read last night!

Happy to take a little credit for this connection, go read Madeline’s poem (even if you heard her read it back in November) 🦤
