A little Chocolate Before the Big Sleep
I feel like I read my own writing with a specific cadence and intonation, so I wanted to put this here too. But if you'd rather just read it written out, it's on Hot Literati substack too. I might keep doing this with these "essays" if you all like it. Thanks.
