    It's a well known fact that H.P. Lovecraft was a horribly racist man, and that some of his earliest stories reflect that particular worldview. This can make it awkward for those who would like to read his work and see what all the fuss is about but don't want to have to wade through the putrid swamp of his views on people of color and immigrants. 
    In response to this issue, I have put together this collection of the H.P. Lovecraft short stories written between 1917 and 1923, but with the omission of the really racist ones (there are still one or two lines in one or two of the stories included here that might raise the odd eyebrow, but nothing overtly racist). You may now peruse the works of the master of weird fiction without fear that you'll have to deal with his opinions of the master race, and that's a good thing. Lovecraft was a racist douchebag, but he was also a visionary writer of amazingly creative and breathtaking stories without which entire genres of fiction would not exist, and on that score the literary world owes him a debt of gratitude. 
    In this audio book version I will read you the stories as suspensefully and creepily they deserve to be read. For best results, listen on a good set of headphones. In the dark. Under a blanket. Just don't expect to get much sleep. 
    Come see (hear) what all the fuss is about.

    Welcome to the wild, wine-fueled world of dating in your 30s—where men are older, red flags shine brighter, and text replies are nonexistent. If you’ve ever wondered if finding love is harder than securing decent Wi-Fi, you’re in the right place! 
    Meet Rachel, who’s moved on from sugar daddies and is now searching for a guy who can spell “commitment.” She’s on a quest for something real, but might settle for a man who doesn’t use his mom’s Netflix account. 
    Then there’s Bianca, the queen of swipe-left. She’s dodged so many bad dates that she could win a gold medal. But after so many ghostings, she wonders if she should start dating spirits—at least Casper was friendly. 
    Suzan, meanwhile, has perfected self-love and wonders if anyone else can keep up. Spoiler alert: they usually can’t. But when the dating pool feels more like a puddle, what’s a girl to do? 
    And don’t forget Tom—Sydney’s most fabulous gay model. He’s a runway star and master at turning dating disasters into stories best told over a bottle of rosé. 
    Together, this crew navigates the highs and lows of modern love in Sydney, where first dates feel like job interviews and ghosting is a professional sport. Along the way, they’ll face existential crises, contemplate life (or why nobody texts back), and maybe discover that the best love story is with themselves. 
    So pour a glass of wine, swipe right, and prepare to laugh, cringe, and cheer as these friends date, ghost, and most importantly, love themselves along the way.
