Do y’all remember Love Shack, by the B52s?

I’m not a lyricist, but when I do write a ditty, it’s a love song to a social platform set to the music of 1980s cross-over pop.

Substack, Baby!

If you see a faded QR code bar on the back of a zine,snap a photo

Lookin’ for a writing getaway

Headin’ for the air b-n-b, Headin’ for the air b-n-b
