So, upon finally finding herself in a situation where such a trip might be possible—being a writer may not always pay better than being a bartender or a cable guy, but at least the schedule’s flexible—she leaps at the chance, refurbishing a ramshackle 2001 Dodge van and setting off from Austin, Texas with her Husky mix Woody by her side. Her influences feel obvious—but a lot has changed about the United States since the 1962 trip John Steinbeck chronicles in Travels with Charley. And Lauren Hough isn’t John Steinbeck—unless the Nobel Prize-winning author of The Grapes of Wrath had a secret past as a six-foot-tall lesbian and Air Force vet.

It's October, so it's Fiends of the Library time again! And this month they're all based on true (human) stories.

Library Game's Kickstarter is in its final week. Pledge before Sunday if you want one! www.kickstarter.com/projects/amb...

Amy is offering Bigfoot a snack. Amy: I'm sorry someone stole your shoes. Would a few cookies help?Now she's offering her pink high tops. Amy: How about if you try mine on for size?The shoes only fit on Bigfoot's big toes. Amy (off panel): Don't worry, I'm just glad you're feeling better!Amy: Do we have anything in lost and found my size? Medusa, behind Amy, is holding two green feet / calves with bones sticking out of them. Medusa: Just these feet. But I'm not sure they go with your outfit.
