Just turned on the comments, mea culpa. Still getting used to the substack interface...which is why it seems a little quiet here.
This is fucking great
I enjoyed this “occult noir” immensely. Thanks for a great read!
Thank you Erin.
Effervescence! A great read and I'll need a few re-reads. Thank you!
