This chat will surely be a highlight of my week. Thanks to the wonderful @ShorterBC folks who asked me smart, kind questions. What a blast!
THANK YOU to @dustinmhoffman and everyone who came to our meeting last night! It was so fun to discuss No Good for Digging, Michigan, and everything writing! (Missed it? You can still grab a copy of the book from @wordwestpress)

ALT A quote from the book, No good for digging by Dustin M Hoffman. “It was the first aviation drawing he’d created in his nine years of life where he’d gotten the angle right so that the wings didn’t look like disproportional stubs. He felt the chill of brilliance sneaking through his fingers and up into his throat.”

ALT A quote from the book, Little Feasts, by Jules Archer. The quote is, “It’s nerve-wracking: the ones who get taken, who are easily lifted and never found again. She’s covetous.“ The text is over an image of a car driving down a two-lane road with trees on either side.
