Mike Davis reads it just the way I heard it in my head...maybe even better. That connection between strangers is the best reason to read, to write.
Broken Hours Book by Jacqueline Baker (@jakerback ) is a pseudo biography about H.P. Lovecraft. Read @RAforAll review of it here: bit.ly/2Hw3Z7l
So good to chat with the brilliant and funny @marinaendicott about her novel The Difference for @ReadersFest tonight. A book filled with grace and light, just like the author.

The reason so many authors have anxiety is because if you mess up at an office job, Linda in HR will only be mad at you until Friday at 5 PM, but I just saw a girl on Goodreads blame Sophocles for ruining her high school experience, and the man has been dead for 2000 years
So perfect. Speaking as another. Leatherback or Snapping, depends on the day.
