Welcome to Newsletter #272

A bunch of tales I wanted to share with you

A tale I read

Marie Makes Fun of Me at the Shore by Bernadette Mayer
[Marie Makes Fun of Me at the Shore by Bernadette Mayer]

A tale I heard

Businesswoman Deborah Meaden on her husband of 40 years: 

"'He is the most competent man in the world. He’s a fantastic cook. He grows all our own vegetables. He’s in touch with the earth. He’s not interested in doing what I do, but he still wants me to do what I do, and I want Paul to do what he does. We’re just two people who found each other, and filled in the gaps."

A tale I saw

Skipping Meals by James Acaster

A tale I wrote


I clicked ‘yes’
when the ATM
asked if I wanted
an advice slip

and out slid
a hair-thin
piece of paper
telling me never

to forget
the difference
between imagination
and a lie.
