I’d like to say that switching to Genesis from Thesis was a “New Coke” stunt, designed simply to forge the bond between the 7 WVFF backrow members and the bloated novels I call “posts.” But I’d rather consider this a grand defeat, prefaced by a tremendous waste of time. My sister said the blog was…
