Your hold is ready! (Goodbye, 2021!)

Happy end-of-the-year and (12/19) 23rd birthday to me! Wanted to conclude with one final newsletter, now from my childhood bedroom as I visit my family. Hope you’re able to get cozy and spend some time with these recs (and those you love!) as we move into 2022.

Also, be sure to check out swallow::tale press, a Mad press for Mad manuscripts, co-run by myself and my co-conspirator and fellow Mad creator, Feyxuan. We have a bookstore and, of course, everything on there is highly recommended –– I chose and edited them, after all! Message for free ecopies if you’re in financial need.

Okay, now to the recommendations.

Today’s Recs:

Books:

Multimedia:

Albums:

Poetry & Prose & In-Between:

That’s all for now –– again, feel free to let me know what you think, what you’d like to see more of, and if you have any recommendations of your own!
