To paraphrase Elvis Costello, "Congratulations! You've just bought my worst issue!"
Written and edited during a strange and difficult time of my 20s, the last Writer's Block featured a report from the International Pop Underground Convention in Olympia, WA. I've regretted it for almost a third of a century now. In that spirit, each issue includes a two-page piece I wrote in 2023 called "Young and Stupid: Notes on Writer's Block #8." In it, I detail where I went wrong, why it happened, and what I learned from the experience. I don't know if there's such a thing as a completist of my work, but if there is, this one's for you.
