No, your calendar doesn’t lie — we’re closing in on the end of July and I’m just now getting around to posting the May license plate report. June will follow shortly, and I promise July will be more or less on time.
New sightings in May: Iowa and Kentucky, for a total of 36. That’s a bit off the usual pace but not by much. It’s definitely odd, however, to be missing two of the three West Coast states at this late date. Spoiler alert: This will be fixed in June, and since I’m running so late you won’t have to wait long.
Susanna edits for a living and writes to survive. Having been preoccupied with electoral politics since 2016, she is now getting back to writing -- and she's got plenty to write about. Her blog "The T-Shirt Chronicles," started at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, is a meandering memoir based on her out-of-control T-shirt collection. Her other blogs include "From the Seasonally Occupied Territories," about being a year-round resident of Martha's Vineyard, and "Write Through It," about writing, editing, and how to keep going.
