@annecenglish Thanks for reading!

[Ian Bassingthwaighte @iangbass]

Really excited to share this story, which was more years in the making than I feel mentally prepared to count. I hope you like it. Thanks @onestorymag for giving it a home.

@mediamolecule When linking a booth to a demo, you're asking for a door labelled with the name of the scene. Does it have to be a scene, or can it be a dream? And by door, do you mean a sculpted door or a doorway gadget?

@mediamolecule Lol crying while playing https://t.co/wcXemKFdw1. Get your tissues ready!

My One Story is officially live! This is a secret ode to my hs cross-country coach, whom I adored, even though I detested the sport. Since all writers are perverse, I decided to show my admiration with a story about power and coercion. Order a copy here! https://t.co/BvHgoec4R3

@GreatSchoolsP Also, teachers ought to be paid more. Just saying.

[Ian Bassingthwaighte @iangbass]

@GreatSchoolsP For me, I think the single biggest opportunity to improve public education is to address the inequity you mentioned. But it's not just one reform we're talking about. Socioeconomic, linguistic, cultural, and societal inequities - just to name a few - all must be addressed.

"The bookselling behemoth [Amazon] is making life harder for writers, but so is the public perception that art doesn’t need to be paid for."

Query for the day: How long does it take for defenders of the 2nd amendment to count to 14? Feel like I'm going to die waiting...
