Well. I’m supposed to be deep into my novel right now, but I’ve been watching so much fun television that I need a place to dump my thoughts. I can’t say this “column” or “newsletter” or “blog” will be totally coherent or even deeply meaningful at times, but I have a lot of thoughts and a lot to say, okay?!
My goal for this lil substack (I’ve been brainstorming on this for months because I wanted it to be “cooler” and more unique than writing about TV & movies, but here we are) is to have fun. A casual, no-pressure exercise to word-vomit my musings on the things I watch that make me feel… more than I already do. And that we can discuss the pop culture we love together!
According to a casual~ IG poll, potential readers (aka my gracious friends who responded, thank you) want my thoughts on Interview with the Vampire first. But to be honest, they haven’t even watched it yet, even though I’ve been begging them and posting about it non-stop. Also, I think that one’s going to take a lot more brainpower and maybe a newsletter on each episode (eeeeep, I know, but there is just so much in each one to unpack. And it will be worth it).
Before we dive deep into gothic horror and human monsters, I found my thoughts flowing and forming around a discourse on the internet about Wednesday, and I feel compelled to contribute. And to not go with the poll results at all, sorry! But I promise the vampires will be here eventually. And then good luck getting me to shut up about them.
Welcome to… The Highlight Reel!
My vote mattered! Haha I can’t wait for all the new content 😛
