Balthazar emailed me a very dreamy twist on an unboxing.

It’s appropriate that I’m reading this in my childhood bedroom after my mom has gone to sleep.

“While I’m rarely inclined to listen to The Byrds anymore, I remember driving back to Brooklyn, enveloped in their chiming guitars, and how—in the wake of my meeting with R—I was filled with relief and regret, sensing that I had witnessed the end of my youth, along with a torment and fear that had for so long defined it, but which in the ephemeral twilight hovering over New York City seemed to evaporate as the day gave way to night.”

There’s good writing, and then there’s good writing. This story is the latter.

Matt’s story is so, so wonderful. I remember exactly where I was—Tillie’s!—when I read it and emailing him immediately after, waiting for Melissa to come meet me. He has a novel coming out in December, yknow. The Metropolis Case, which you should all pick up OBVS.

i’m gross, dirty and sweaty from a rather exhausting day at work.
it completely made my day to come home and find this in my mailbox.

Even the librarians at my high school love COMING AND CRYING!
I just said OH MY GOD out loud at my desk.

Bust Magazine reviewed the book, hooray!→
“Coming & Crying got its funding through a platform for artists called Kickstarter, which makes the book sort of a full-circle of helping. People helping people have popular blogs, people helping people have sexy times to write about in said blogs, and people helping people to get books made so that people who don’t have the Internet (can you imagine?) can read about them. I’m into it.”
Being a part of this project means I get to feel wide-eyed and flustered and starstruck with alarming frequency, what feels like every other day.
