They say it’s your birthday. It’s my birthday too, yeah.
Four! It’s a magic number. Yes it is. It’s a magic number. Because it’s our fourth birthday today. It doesn’t seem entirely fathomable that we’ve been doling out zest-infused literary postcards to you for four whole years. If HOOT was a person it would have already mastered the beginnings of language acquisition (and then on […]

Mysterious Mail
HOOT has chronicled its love of receiving random mail-based mysteries before (like here and here). And that hasn’t changed.

Britt Gambino, who works and teaches at Gotham Writers Workshop in New York City, was kind […]
