Favorite pieces of clothing you own. 1. A T-shirt with a well-designed cartoon of me created by my daughter on it. I’m surrounded by books, including “Dull Vol. 1”, “Dull Vol. 2” and “Dull Vol. 3”. 2. A “SILENCE=DEATH” ACT-UP t-shirt. I was a charter member. Unfortunately the shirt no longer fits. 3. A red wool jacket with camp patches from my Scouting days 4. An inexpensive jacket I bought at Target ~20 years ago. It’s held up over the years, though I wear it often and run it through the laundry occasionally. It’s lightweight, but insulates really well and is great for the relatively mild Texas winters. 5. Stetson cowboy hat. Bought in Texas. 6. A black hoodie that I got from my sister-in-law. It’s a heavy and great for colder weather. 7. My Brooks “Essential Run” windbreaker, a perfect lightweight shell. Unfortunately no longer available in my size. 8. A black T-shirt with the Triforce of Courage highlighted on it in green, with the words “COURAGE - The Ability to Persevere and Overcome Situations That Scare Me”. 9. My LLBean ski bibs, which I bought at a garage sale for $1, 20 years ago. They’re warm and comfortable and still going strong! 10. A pair of black T-shirts featuring the logo of a fictional pub and academic department from my novel series. 11. A plaid flannel shirt I’ve owned for twenty-plus years. It’s nice and warm. ---
