OMG, this story by @elissafield.bsky.social in @frazzledlit.bsky.social . I got to hear Elissa reading "Perfect Star" a few months ago and couldn't keep my face straight. I defy you to read it without sobbing.

"She trotted to you across the field. Stood for the leather halter to fit over her ears, the carrots, the brush at the crosstie. Old enough to ride but still. The pain in her legs."
Thanks so much, Emily! ❤️

"*Not now*, you say. *The vet is waiting*, you say. *When I’m home*, you say. Need the silence of the car, windows up. Drive out to the barn. Flash of copper, flash of star, as if there were maybe still a chance."
