And PS – Happy book birthday to Meg Hafdahl (center in picture below) and Kelly Florence for The Science of Women in Horror!

Reading: I am still going strong with Chloe Neill and her Chicagoland Vampires. So good.
Writing Life: I’ve used this GIF before, but it’s still accurate:

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.
