This is my last tweet. I struggle with social anxiety and general antisocial issues, and this platform has done nothing to make that better, especially under the new management. I have met several great people here, but no one I cannot interact with elsewhere. So I abstain.
Probably not going to go the way I would like, but... Fuck yeah, Maine!

The inexorable relentlessness of time and nature, the real world horror of dementia. No ghouls, no gore. Just a reflection on what life is for small island folk. I hope you all enjoy

@KyleToucher @m_lawrence2 @BechtolJay I say we blame the many idiosyncrasies of the English language and call it a day. (Also, super-cool of Joe to accept updated proofs.)
@BechtolJay @m_lawrence2 These things are literally invisible to me until after I’ve hit send. After that, they glare off the page like the flashing lights of a dozen police cruisers outside my motel room window.
@m_lawrence2 @gr8stewart @BechtolJay I submit typo catches and little changes sometimes as close as a day or two before the shallow waters story runs. Joe's been great about allowing that. ;) But still, I see some cringers in my stuff. The other night, I even caught an error in my Dead Letters story. Whoopsie.
@BechtolJay Oh man, no worries at all. I should have caught it before I submitted it, and it’s hardly my first silly typo in print. Wouldn’t want it to overshadow that I’m thrilled you selected it for inclusion (despite the extra’s apostrophes’.) 🤣
Today's story is "In Hindsight" from @gr8stewart . Noir, mystery, horror, all wrapped up into a tight, reflective story. "A hundred splintered Hal's stare back from the fractured glass." Wade in...
Today's story from A.K. McCarthy is "Skritch Skritch Skritch." One of those titles that had me sucked into the story even before I started reading. "They lurk in dark corners and in the reflections of mirrors. Always just a little bit out of view." Wade in...
