Back from a community-building and soul-strengthening NonfictioNOW conference. Thanks to all the stellar presenters and organizers. Going to hold this galaxy of ideas in my heart in the coming turbulent months.

Couldn’t attend a #nokings protest, travel long home from the NonfictioNow conference in South Bend, IN. But thanks to @nikwalk.bsky.social’s prop work, everyone in DTW’s Terminal A knows where I stand.

While we were at the NonFictioNow conference, I held the camera while @amrangowani.com recorded this TikTok about substack, capitalism, misinformation, and his new novel Leverage. www.tiktok.com/@amran_gowan...
Doing #financial crimes at #notredame led to a chance viewing of bitch boy Amran Gowani's panel on #substack. #leverage #novel
