UNCA closes because of a credible email threat, demanding that our Black Lives Matter mural be painted over. The long shadow of Trump allows these night creatures to creep out of their holes. 

Spent the day correcting proofs of The One with the Beautiful Necklaces. The book is better than I remember it. The press’ edits were so organic that I didn’t even notice them. 

Rain all day. Began transcribing my play about Artemisia Gentilleschi from my notebook.
