Peter Straub has died. CaitlĂn R. Kiernan writes well about him. I did not know him more than professionally, but he was a pleasure to share panels, readings, podcasts with. My copy of Ghost Story (1979) is in storage, like the rest of my library. I read it for the first time waiting to fly standby to Gainesville.
asakiyume has read (and liked!) As the Tide Came Flowing In. It definitely feels like a present to receive such an attentive and appreciative review.
According to this afternoon's X-rays, my back looks unremarkable, so it could stop hurting any time now, thanks. I have been referred for PT.
Three more monarchs have emerged over the course of today, bringing us to (my niece has been naming all of them) Stripey the Ninth.
