Sending hugs, friend! I hope the youngest feels better soon.

If you want there to be F&SF fiction mags, we need to do something now, while Amazon is removing their support. Check out one mag's website today and support them, if you have the means. Or just RT this if you can't, because the situation is pretty dire.

Bro excitement over “AI” art strikes me as another example of the notion that an “idea” is worth more than execution, as in “I’ll give you my idea, you write it, and we’ll split the proceeds 50/50.”

Ideas are cheap. The execution of ideas is the part that takes skill, & skill that makes great art.

My mom was a notary. Really fascinating!

Apex Magazine Subscription Drive update: Things have definitely slowed down with the drive. We're currently at 157 new subscribers, which is fantastic, but its also very far from our 300 goal.

If we do not hit 300 new subscribers, we will have to cut the size of each issue. All the details here:

When facing the "All we need is STEM!" approach to education, my usual response is: Developing the vaccine was the STEM problem; distribution & getting shots in arms was the Social Science problem; getting people to trust it & combatting misinformation was the Humanities problem-- which did we fail?

Decided to make a very simple chocolate mousse last night. Just cream, chocolate, more cream, vanilla. It worked out fine in the end, but I couldn’t keep my chocolate from separating. Too much heat, I think. Next time I’ll try a more traditional mousse with eggs. See if that works!

Right!?! It is too much!

Yes, absolutely!

I’ve had a tough time reading for pleasure this year, but I finally finished a book I began in February: Allende’s House of the Spirits. The book is profound and will remain with me for a long time. It is not an easy text to reckon with, but it felt so timely even after 40 years.

Welcome!

I know it is news to no one here, but I’m seeing my students drop like flies as a round of COVID makes its way across campus. Several down in my seminar. This is the future we didn’t want.

First day of the fall term! I am, despite a rather difficult summer, feeling pretty energized! And look what a student made for me!

I just received an email telling me about a committee I have no memory of ever volunteering to be on. Have I come to the point of saying yes so often to service that I can’t even remember what I’ve said yes to??

Thank you!

Just finished grading my summer class. There is now one week until the fall semester begins. What a summer. Whew.

Thank you!

I had a dream last night where I was back in grad school, except they’d changed all the exam parameters. What’s up with that, brain??

You win. That photo is epic!

Things I’m reading: finishing up Isabel Allende’s The House of the Spirits. Fascinating read. Troubling, complicated, magical. It is not something I would have picked for myself, but a friend sent it to me and I am glad they did.

Bagels are awesome. The perfect bread.
