Staff update: We asked Jane, our new Intern Dictator, if we could please, pretty please have at least one intern. This was her response. That’s a yes, right? Or at least, a strong maybe?? Anyhoo, Claudine has been in her feelings. She needs an intern.
Humans, it’s that time again. Yaaas! 🔥 Spoiler: we’re going to tackle the 100 word story and VOICE! 💚🤓💚 DM us to join!

Staff meeting: We are in our feelings today. Our EIC is overwhelmed (good kind) from her trip to the FFF in Bristol. Just incredible! Claudine refuses to be put down since our EIC’s return. Overwhelmed (other kind). Jane won’t respond when we inquire about new interns. TBD.
