Hello my wonderful liminal and irl community. I hope you’re enjoying each writer’s takeover of the Hot Literati Universe. We’ve had Miss Ananya explore tech and addiction and lead a group of thought daughters around WSP (more eventually). We’ve had Vic do a reading while getting a tattoo for about 15 minutes (her idea not mine!!!). And now we have Anderson II, and if you’ve been here for a bit, then you know that Anderson makes nothing if not an impression and then a second and a third until his voice and his words are lingering in your consciousness. His/our next event will be a book swap/darty on September fifteenth on the lower east side. Mark your calendars, come ready to party and show the frat-loved Sunday Funday tradition how sexy readers make use of day drinking and music.

I’ve been writing extremely personal narratives and recounts of my days that are available in extremely small batches (3 each) on our shop, but believe me life has still been coming fast and hard and as my friend Sarah said the other day “I’ve been living extra extra hard.”
I’ve been very good at ending things. I was thinking about my last relationship and then my playgirl phase. My playgirl phase was an exercise in loose ends and possibilities. I liked to leave an open door (for the connection? For the story?) Now I am getting better at closing the door, or just walking away to go somewhere nicer and more suited to me.
For example, today I went to go pick up some stuff from this guy’s place. He texted me to at least let him make me a drink and I reminded him that I only drink on Fridays and Saturdays (except for our darty, I will make an exception for that). He’s very nice, I enjoy him a lot, and when I entered, he was playing piano concerto no. 2 or 3. We rushed to tell one another that we didn’t really see legs on this and he asked if I was running out and I said yes, because I had a call with Bella…
