I did it, I finally did it! I wrote an About section for this newsletter. Were there a few words there before? Yes. Did I feel like they adequately explained the breadth of this corner of the Substack literary universe? No, I did not. Did I promptly set about writing a new version? Why would I ever do such a thing? Instead I only thought about it endlessly and in the kind of fits and starts that amount to the visual equivalent of a rubber wedge thingie you jam underneath a door to keep it open.
Whew, I was worried about your opinion on the Oxford comma, but it was more than made up for with the Succession and Dorothy Z. comments. (PS - Elizabeth Banks directed one of the Pitch Perfect movies and the most recent Charlie's Angels.)
I'm a new Flop Era reader who is indiscriminate with my phone number and insist that my young adult children use my number instead of theirs so I get alllll the rewards. I'd love to see Joan Rivers take on 'influencers' and I broke a few toes a few years ago and my feet have never been the same since.

Looking forward to it all!
