If you want to support a charity for youth literacy and writing, or just buy yourself a tin of fear, like I did, there's a Monster Supply shop that needs supporting:

@neilhimself I was going to suggest that if you like this sort of thing, you might check out one of the 826 centers in the US... but a quick web search suggests you're familiar with a few of them. Fantastic places. I used to tutor at 826 Boston. The more places like that, the better—happy to help push this one forward. "It takes a village" sounds so trite, but in education it's key.
@neilhimself It reminds me of David Eggers' Pirate Supply Store at 826 Valencia, San Francisco, CA, USA.
Similarly, 826 Valencia is about inspiring and assisting young writers, and the various locations are all themed, and have unique storefronts. I'd love to say I've visited more than the 3 in my city, but no...
@neilhimself Fab idea. Thank you for highlighting this. Much better to get kids to use their own imaginations rather than ChatGPT.
