#FridayReads

I missed posting last week on Friday. I’m sure I could add a post back in, but I’m just keeping it real here on this site and blog. I have a lot to learn and figure out in this new iteration of regular writing. In one of the crosswords I do regularly a recent clue was something like “What a Substack is” and the answer was. . . “blog.” #EverythingOldIsNewAgain

Meanwhile, over on Twitter, #FridayReads begins to percolate. . .

@OccasionallyZen is reading the amazing Samantha Irby’s new essay collection Quietly Hostile:

If you’re reading this post, chances are you’re reading something right now, and/or have a book you’re looking forward to for the weekend. . . I hope you have a comfortable place for reading and the beverage of your choice as you turn the pages.
