We spent this week talking about the strange joys of revising poetry—line breaks that refuse to cooperate, words that suddenly look wrong, and that drive —it's not a compulsion, I swear!— to tirelessly edit draft after draft. . J.W. Surface joined us to chat about novels a decade in the making, typewritten poems, and how hard it is not to tinker forever.
Then we shifted (see what we did there?) into stories inspired by Proteus, the Greek myth’s shape‑shifting prophet—complete with quests, bargains, and an epic fight with mortality itself.
