What is Friday Fare? As a recap, on Fridays I post link love to the various bits of arcane shiz I discover on the Interwebs. I liken it to a glimpse into my mind, but without the 80s song lyrics or mental cobwebs.

Happy book birthday to my friend Michelle Cox. She Writes had a neat piece with Michelle on their blog.
Given how weird the world is, I love finding “news of the weird.” This sounds like a delicious crime.
This editorial cartoon hit me squarely in the feels, sounds like I’m not the only one.

Listening: I’ve had a weirdly wonderful musical weekend / week. I saw the legendary Del McCoury and his band last week. On Sunday, I went with one of my dearest friends to see Lord Huron up at the Palace Theatre in St. Paul. (PS – I’m too damn old for general admission tix. Ouch.)
Last night found me at the Cavalier Theater in LaCrosse listening to Willie Watson.
I don’t know if there’s such a thing as “too many” concerts. I’ve found out the hard way over the years that if there’s an artist you’re into and you get a chance to go … go. (Ahem … missedoutonseeingjohnnycashandstillpissy.) My mind is richer because of these experiences.
Reading: How has this book been out for decades and I’m JUST reading this? Wow.
Writing Life: Plugging along. I attended an online revision workshop a couple weekends ago, hosted by Samantha & Cristina from ManuFixed. They’re holding a repeat and it was money well spent.
Be well.
