If you haven’t explored chapbooks, I highly recommend “maybe this is what I deserve” by Tucker Leighty-Phillips. Tucker’s stories evoke, they conjure, they stir. They get etched into memory.

Tucker is at the beginning of his writing. His first collection “maybe this is what I deserve,” is the first of what I hope will be many books to come. Check it out!

@IanThistlethwaite How lovely. My late husband’s name was Harold Lloyd. I felt like this was a wink from him. You just never what these list might spark. Thank you.
@Jtmoriartywriter I call this work book coaching. As a book coach, you are helping the writer grow the story by delving into structure, character, phrasing, etc. Looking at the story at the macro and micro level. My aim is to hone their writing chops for anything they write, not just for one story. I use my edits and suggestions to coach. Showing how to improve both the story and their writing. Another term for the type of editing you described is developmental editing.

So... Matt Taibbi’s Twitter Files tweets haven’t been deleted but Twitter is blocking users from searching for them! This has to be the funniest outcome from the so called #Twitter Files fiasco, which was centered around the "Twitter censors free speech" narrative and now you can't search for the Twitter Files anymore because #ElonMusk censored the reporter who posted them.

What a time to be alive!

Edit: Don't miss the Mehdi vs Taibbi clash. Priceless 👉 https://yewtu.be/watch?v=a597e6Wv_xg
