So... exactly how many of those little red and yellow pills did you say you took before writing this story? Just the right amount, apparently. As far as Zara Shoestra, yes that IS silly. I wonder how many of your readers pick up the reference. Thanks for the laughs, Alexander.
Hey, for some reason you site doesn't come up in my inbox on Substack. I get your emails but I can never seem to find your latest when I'm just looking at my Home/inbox.

We can add Little Red Riding Hood and Death to Daniel’s intertextual comment!
This scene is so captivating, Alexander! You bring us all in. Really visceral imagery like the sound of the feet and then the cinematic timing effect. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
also im really sorry i did not get round to adding to the story line thing... i confess i found navigating the story to be confusing and kept getting interrupted before getting to finish it... then other stuff...
If this isn't a story about Dorothy Gale or Judy Garland or BOTH then I'M a little red terrier.
It's about all the Dorothys, Judys, and Totos, although we've never been in Kansas. Thanks for reading, Daniel!
Oh man, I really really enjoyed this. A wild trip. Surreal, weird, winding, all the kind of things I love.
Nicely done, Alexander!
Thank you, Nathan! All the desired ingredients for a successful defrag! ;)

"Also sprach Zara Shoestra," nothing gets by you, Sharron! Very happy to hear it made you laugh. Mission accomplished. ;)
Ah well, you live a long time you learn stuff. At least you did before tiktok.
TikTok might get banned in US... mayhem will ensue :D
Rioting in the streets. Batten down the hatches, my friend.
Interesting times, my friend, interesting times! ;)
Wonderfully surreal, the narrator really shouldn't pick up strange pills on park benches... ;)
Thanks, my friend! Not the most reliable narrator, methinks! ;)
Interesting read, as usual.

Yes, Indeed, we can! After all, it is a bit of a 'grimm' tale. Thanks, Kate. Happy to hear that you enjoyed it.
this was great! a perfect what the hell is going on story. 😎 so many questions... so many possibilities.
Thanks, Nick! I have no idea what's going on most of the time—a constant state of being. ;)

No worries, Nick. If you like, we can have a chat over the holidays and see what's what. Cheers!
