I absolutely love the quotations in this piece. I've heard quite a bit about The Clackity, too -- it sounds legit terrifying -- a SERIAL KILLER in MG? How do authors who are not me get away with that!? My editor gives me side-eye if there are too many unhappy people in a story.

I am ...so tired. This has just been A Week and I want it over and it's only Tuesday and there's no amount of sleeping and waking up again that will make this a bad dream. The best things right now for me are books; books close down my first and second thoughts to let my third thoughts work more effectively. Books allow me to escape and believe that the world can BE changed.

So, we'll keep reading, yes? And taking just one more step, and eating those rolls, and saying, to these intrusions, forcefully, "NO."
