The Monster Post!

2 weeks ago | authorstrator.substack.com | Meaghan McIsaac

The world is teeming with ravenous greed monsters and I don't know about you but I am exhausted. Who owes what at what rate and to and from where. Tit for tat. Pay for play. Subscribe forever. Your mortal soul for one shiny dollar. This is life. Gross. Gross ugly greed monsters setting the world quaking beneath our feet. Or maybe it’s always been like this. The monsters are just at our doorstep now. And as I write my little stories while the greed monsters rage, I have to wonder at the absurdity of it all.

Until the inspo is spent I suppose), and after days of deliberating, I decided on CIRCUS. It made sense for obvious reasons, I should think.

I’ve been quiet, I know this. The real world (outside the digital realm) has been a lot to work with and so my newsletter life has had to go on the back burner a bit. Why? My usual life routine has been thrown for a loop due to forces beyond my control and uncertainty about next steps have forced a lot of grappling and strategizing and evaluating.

Hoooooooooo boy. The holidays have come on hard and fast this year and I can hardly catch my breath. Between the present shopping, the food shopping, the hosting, the cooking, the decorating, the visits, the pageants......and the kids’ hockey.....I've barely had a second to take a minute to think. I haven’t even gotten to watch all the holiday hallmark movies as I wanted! How are you holding up?
