Jensen McRae, “Dead Girl Walking”
Good morning!
Wisconsin readers: tomorrow is the primary election for State Superintendent of Schools. I’ve been working at a polling place every election for the past few years, and usually for these local races, I spend most of the day reading (and get through 2-3 entire books). I really want to encourage you to get out and vote. These smaller offices have more of an impact on your daily life than positions at the federal level, and a lot of the resistance to illegal executive orders over the past few weeks have come from state-level authorities. If you need help registering or finding your polling place, myvote.wi.gov has everything you need.
I’ll be at the Spooky Frog Horrifying Book Fair this Saturday! This is my first event for the new year. I’ll be joining a delightfully eclectic collection of horror authors and artists from 11-5 at The Factory on Barclay here in Milwaukee. Here’s the Facebook event with more info.
On Wednesday, Episode 3 of The Well Below the Valley will be up here for free reading. I’ll be starting Episode 5 this week, and I hope to have some more updates on the comic as well by Friday.
Petitions for this week:
Via MPower Change: Tell Microsoft to stop partnering with Israel’s genocide
Via The Juggernaut Project: Denounce Trump’s hateful attacks on transgender Americans
Via Campaign for a New Myanmar: Call for a global arms embargo on Burma’s military junta
Via Win Without War: Don’t fund Trump’s Guantánamo Bay immigrant prison
That’s all I’ve got for today. Take care and stay warm!
