I want to celebrate my fiftieth episode by reading my yokai story, "Sand Walls, Paper Doors" from my book A Robe of Feathers and Other Stories. This is the one that got me my book deal, my agent, and my best friend. Also, yokai, lots of yokai.

Thank you for listening, sharing, and reaching out these past three and a half years. I'm looking forward to the next fifty episodes!
