So if we were to do a #midwessay shirt, should we do a series of different shirts for each state, or one common #midwessay shirt?
@poorerthandead oh @EssayingDaily totally should. Closest they did so far is the WI: America's Diaryland shirt which probably isn't yr jam: https://t.co/7g5R0nCRgJ

"Summer rainclouds are different; they are vibrant, dark, inverses of their white cotton-ball good-day counterparts."

"I will never be able to deftly pivot between a philosophical discussion of types of nostalgia and how restorative nostalgia can have totalitarian impulse when practiced in times of economic turbulence the way O'Gieblyn does." —Natalie Tomlin: https://t.co/y8vVUZaBwz

In yet another drought year in California and one of the rainiest summers I remember in Michigan, thanks to @angermonsoon and @EssayingDaily, I have a new piece out in their excellent #midwessay series about the rain, and how we use weather to tell time.
"I remember rain this way, in flashes, though I’m sure there were weeks when it rained day after day. All rain in my memory seems moderate, in the middle, hard to pin down, near impossible to predict or name." —@jillkolongowski: https://t.co/s2gRKkry8v
Almost done with our #midwessay coverage (tho we'll be publishing more entries later in the year), almost 150 essays into this thing. Thanks to all of you who've contributed so far, and if you still want to send us something, do!
"The Midwest teaches me about age and aging." —a #midwessay from Melody S. Gee: https://t.co/HbJS0MFyfo
