Message for the book clubbers!

Hello friends!

Sorry for my informality (and also pls excuse any typos I am dyslexic and have nails on rn). No reading for book club tomorrow-- I wanna get caught up on last week since I missed it and I want to ask about our general plans and programming!

I’m going to be back to making videos in December and I wanted to let y’all know what I’m going to be talking about and how promoting my Substack on my TikTok affects book club (bc right now it is such a small and insular community). If you’ve been coming pls come! If you’ve been wanting to come and you just haven’t been now is a really good time for that!!

I’ll send the link out tomorrow afternoon along with an essay about belly of the beast and toxic positivity. See you all soon!!

I feel like a queer English professor letting my class know about schedule lmfao. How down would y’all be if I had some of my English teachers on in this space? To like podcast with me or read or something? Talk about poetry? Would that be fun?

Cheers!!
