Fascinating story! Thanks for sharing this, I loved reading it. I love it when stories are very weird yet also very relatable in ways that are hard to articulate.

Man, I love Dubliners, too. This is the second Substack comment I've made today about it. I'm obsessed with writing something inspired by "Clay."

Thank you so much, Ivy! Yes--weird but relatable has always been a major goal in much of my writing. I really should re-read Dubliners, it's been so many years! I can't wait to read your "Clay" inspired piece! Similarly, I've always wanted to write something inspired by Sherwood Anderson's "The Book of the Grotesque"!
