Hey-ho! Inception Stripes!
So many of you have been so blisteringly, dazzlingly, incandescently supportive as I work to finish SAINT DEATH’S HERALD.
I’m not as fast as I want to be, and this book isn’t as short as it needs to be—REVISIONS SHOULD FIX THAT! Sort of!—but I have felt so loved and cheered through the incredibly weird human process called writing. THANK YOU!
One of the beautiful things Caitlyn Paxson has done for me during this last year and half was—in addition to listening to my chapters over SKYPE (we use Skype because it feels old-fashioned and not at all like Zooming for serious things like work)—making me these UNDEAD FLYING TIGER RUG EARRINGS.
Between Z. Z. Claybourne’s gift of Stripes the undead (flattened) (stuffed animal) flying tiger rug, and Caitlyn’s awesome earrings, which again, I reiterate, SHE MADE HERSELF, I am going to have to do some major googling to learn how to PAINT MY FACE LIKE A TIGER AND COSPLAY STRIPES!
I can’t recommend Caitlyn’s newsletter Book & Bramble or her incredible Instagram feed enough. And ZigZag has a book out… is it next month? NEXT MONTH! Local joy abounds.
