@mhelt096.bsky.socialToday is very exciting! My flash fiction piece "Clepsydra" is officially online in The Broken Teacup's latest issue, Volume 9! It's a literary fiction surrealist piece that explores grief and healing. This little story means a lot, and I'd love you to check it out!
@mhelt096.bsky.socialWhat scene makes you emotional no matter how many times you see it?
My family and I have been watching It's A Wonderful Life for Christmas for the last several years. The second they start singing Auld Lang Syne, I turn into a blubbering mess. Every time.
@mhelt096.bsky.socialThis movie looks INCREDIBLE. October can't come fast enough!
@mhelt096.bsky.socialThis is an awesome article! Kevin does a great job of outlining Tron and its relevance in our current day and age.

@mhelt096.bsky.socialI had a lot of fun writing this feature for MovieJawn. Check it out!
@mhelt096.bsky.socialI'm excited to share my contribution to MovieJawn's Fall 2026 zine! I got to write about another Gene Tierney classic, The Ghost and Mrs. Muir. Preorder your copy now!
@mhelt096.bsky.socialAgreed. There is a difference between saying something doesn't click for them (narratively, pacing, etc) versus saying something "wasn't made for them," and treating it like a personal insult. Anytime someone tells me something "wasn't made for them," ergo it's bad, I lose braincells lol
@mhelt096.bsky.socialI love this idea! My favorite Disney world theme is the Nutcracker Suite Op. 71. My favorite Disney world boss theme is Rinzler Recompiled.
