My heart has been heavy these past few days watching the aftermath of devastating fires in Southern California. There are many ways to help those in need, such as donating to organizations like the American Red Cross or chef José Andrés’ World Central Kitchen.

In the last moments of 2024, I’m looking back at favorite Twin Peaks Blog stories you may have missed this year.

What a year! As the last seconds of this unprecedented and surreal year tick away, I’m reflecting on the highlights for TwinPeaksBlog.com in 2020.

It’s an exciting day at TwinPeaksBlog.com as another Bookhouse Boy is joining our writing staff. I met Jason McMahan virtually through our shared interest in identifying props used in David Lynch and Mark Frost’s wonderful and strange show.
