This is gonna be so awesome. Also, a book named after a line from "Swann Street" by Three, a mix tape staple for me in 1989, hell yeah! My inner teenage self is VERY excited.

Time for Rough Draft with Keidra and Liz #7! At times it’s shocking that anything gets done, & perfectionism can make even the smallest project feel impossible. Me & @kdc.bsky.social talk about the imperfect, sustainable ways we push through it. roughdraftwithkeidraandliz.podbean.com/e/rough-draf...

Hey! Hey! Hey! 🤟 Vote Caboose for Best Zine in the @chicagoreader.com Best of 2025! From the Always a Bridesmaid Never a Bride Dept.: I've been nominated in the past (which is in itself an honor) but I've never won. With your help maybe this will be the year! chicagoreader.com/best-of-chic...

My autocorrect always wants to change RSVP to TACO so my texts to my husband say “I will taco for the both of us,” which actually sounds like a pretty good idea

🎤 Pretty hilarious if I don't say so myself: me and Keidra Chaney @wildramppublishing.bsky.social released the next installment of Rough Draft on Thanksgiving, this one about karaoke philosophy. I am thankful for this fun episode! 🤟 roughdraftwithkeidraandliz.podbean.com/e/rough-draf...

The episode of the @chirpradio.org Podcast is up of my performance from the storytelling series The First Time! 🎉 tbh I think this is the best performance I've ever done of any spoken word thing ever. 🎤 And the First Time Three killed it with the song I picked. chirpradio.org/podcasts/fir...
