"The form is about the desire for hindsight, as if being able to see in that way would unlock missing evidences, would unlock the unknowable mysteries of our lives." —@jennyleeSD, 2022 Novella Prize winner with her story "Missing." Full interview: malahatreview.ca/interviews/…

I have generated two excellent sentences to a new scene. After such a stunning achievement, it is definitely time for a nap.

Writing tip: To polish your sentences, put several into a tumbler with coarse grit aluminum oxide, baking soda, and water. Tumble the sentences for at least 2 weeks before checking on them. Finally, rub each sentence thoroughly with some denim, corduroy, or upholstery fabric.

With 5 days left the @clarionghosts are still $14.5k away from their fundraising goal to get their entire cohort to @ClarionUCSD this summer. I'm shameless about promoting other people's goals, so let's do this. Help me retweet this
Since we were chosen as a cohort, the Ghost Class has chosen to be family. We'd like your support in ensuring our family reunion. The campaign includes some amazing services and goods in exchange for contributing. Please check it out, perk up, and share. indiegogo.com/projects/help-…

I guess changing the font was the bold, original move for the poster of the remake of Firestarter.
