Read excerpt
Hello, friends.Last week I wrote the introduction to the newsletter on a beautiful, pre-autumn day with sunshine and pleasant temperatures. Today the weather is gray and a nor’easter is hitting the area, bringing rain, high winds, and a sense of things to come. This week’s essay talks about it a little, as well as my short story “The Umbrella People.”As a treat because I reference it, I’ve decided to put the story in the newsletter this week, too. Originally published in 2004 in Dark Discoveries

Hello, friends.As I sit writing this on Saturday morning, the day before this newsletter will drop, the weather is a beautiful 64ºF outside. The sense that autumn is in the air and heading towards us brings hope. I love the fall. The coolness, the leaves changing, Halloween everywhere I look.

Hello, friends.I will try not to take too much of your time in this introduction since today’s essay got away from me and weighs in around 1,800 words (my typical essays are between 800 and 1,000 words, usually closer to 800).

I hope I did alright.Welcome to the 190th installment of Gauthic Times, the newsletter a

Hello, friends.This week happened, right? I mean, I know it happened, the memories are too acute and I’m too tired for it not to have happened, but it was so busy, and I was so tired, that it barely registered and feels almost like a fever dream than anything that actually happened.Monday we took G up to Boston Children’s Hospital in Weymouth for what was supposed to be her last post-op visit, but since she has that infection that doesn’t seem to be clearing up, we have to go back next week. We

Hello, friends.What a week! Two PD days getting ready for the 2026-2027 school year (the topic of this week’s essay) and an unplanned hourlong drive to a hospital satellite because G’s surgical incision became infected. She’s on antibiotics and such so I’m hoping it’ll clear up before she starts school this week.More writing happened, too, which is always important and the point of this whole newsletter thing.Welcome to the 188th installment of Gauthic Times, the newsletter about my writing, my
