Grace's audio/microphone is finally fixed!! Grace and Alvina have an odd-and-ends Chop Suey episode where they discuss various topics. Since Grace is just back from the Boyd's Mills Asian American Voices retreat, they talk about retreats in general, the community benefits that come from attending retreats, and different kind of retreats. Then they discuss procrastination--Alvina is a somewhat "recovered procrastinator" and Grace talks about procrastinating on chores that she isn't good at doing. They talk about tips for not procrastinating, including "temptation bundling" and gamifying tasks. Then they talk about the Fall season in publishing and why it feels so busy, and they discuss whether editors acquire more in the Fall. For the final segment, children's literature specialist Alison Morris joins to share some book recommendations. And, they end as always with what they're grateful for.
