Such a wonderful treat to open up my inbox and have a newsletter from you. Thank You, Joe. This was desperately needed. Yes, I have election jitters and something besides politics was greatly appreciated. We voted already, I have my Veterans for Harris signs up, and they have been well received in our neighborhood. If you have a chance, please provide more info on that carved piece you are standing by? I've seen quite a few chainsawed carved pieces, but that one with the dragon is stellar.

Enjoy your marshmallow covered pie. We live in ME, and we long ago decided to pardon our turkey and have seafood for Thanksgiving one year and the next year we pick a different cultural treat to try out. With it being just my DD and me, there is just too much turkey for two, so we buy a huge turkey and as much of the sides as we can afford, Then we donate all that to one of the places who cook for those who otherwise would not have a meal. We are thankful we can do that. Be well and hug your children extra tight given the state of the United States.

I liked what you said in The Book Review about how we take inspiration from the heroes in horror as to how to behave in the not so great moments of our lives… I’ve been realizing recently that I also love when I’m reading or watching horror and feel identified, like yes this is exactly how it feels (Even if it’s not the exact situation but a metaphor or something), and then think well I’m not alone and I can see the situation from a new perspective! That said, happy Halloween!! 🎃
