I can now proudly attest that the esteemed Audre Myers, perhaps the one figure at the epicenter of my personal blogosphere, has contributed her first piece to The Portly Politico. What a treat! Even the way that Audre contacted me about her contribution is quintessential Audre: she framed it as giving me a day off from the blog. Very sweet!
I’m happy to give a day—or weeks!—over to Audre’s writing. Her own blog, Words on the Word, is a lovely daily devotional; I recommend it highly.
Audre also shares my love of the spooky, the weird, the unexplained. One of the first ways I became acquainted with Audre’s interests were her posts about Bigfoot over at Nebraska Energy Observer. Here was someone writing with depth and seriousness—not conspiratorial goofiness—about Sasquatch!
That love of spooky weirdness is perfect for Audre’s contribution this week: her broad review of the series Stranger Things, one of my personal favorite series as well.
