Thanks so much for the question from Allan this month! We're doing a dive into what my favorite kind of writing is... and then taking a sharp left turn so I can talk about why I loved Classic Alice's Nathan so damn much. It gets unwieldy in here.

Any other suggestions that'll top "enormous necklace strung with black cord"?
