Hello from many months (and a few years) of some of the most challenging things I’ve ever considered doing. And then, done. I’ve been writing the story of these years since I made the announcement earlier this summer that I would no longer be running Moop Shop. It begins on my birthday, in 2019. I was at a concert in a field, just before a thunderstorm that would eventually cause the show to end early and the audience to run to their vehicles, when I picked up my phone and read an email that entirely upended my life. A few months later, in March of 2020, it was turned over again.
