πŸŽ‰ Weekend Edition Vol.059

gotta catch em all

Hello hello hello! I'm currently being tormented by the ghost of allergies past, but the world inevitably keeps on spinning... And since there's no rest for the wicked, we battled through to give you an excellent week of writing, including two of my favorite things we've published in this weeks short story and essay.

So grab that cup of coffee, empty it, fill it up with some bourbon, and enjoy.
