Dispatches with Jonny Eberle Obscure Studios

Season finale! It's a recurring joke in my bio that I live with my family, a dog, and three adorable typewriters. In today's episode, we meet three vintage manual typewriters, explore their history and quirks, and find out why I like these old-fashioned writing machines so much. Consider this a coda to our season-long theme of nostalgia. See photos of the typewriters and more information I couldn't fit into the episode on my website.

Big changes are happening in my life. After years of collecting books, I've reached a point in my life when I need to get rid of some of my books. At first, I dreaded it, but as I went along, I realized that maybe now is the best time to let someone else appreciate the books that have brought me so much joy. This is how you say goodbye.

Creative Colloquy, the South Sound literary nonprofit that I'm involved with is celebrating its 10th anniversary! As someone who was there almost from the beginning, I talk a bit about the organization and why I love it. If you're in Tacoma on Monday, March 18, we're having a party with live music, featuring readings, a raffle, and more. I'm one of the readers at the event and I'll be performing a brand new short story. Details here—I hope to see you there! Also, apologies for my voice. I've been sick and still sound a bit gravelly.
