So, they’re altering the deal & we should pray they do not alter it further?

New #WriterBeware blog post: Gen AI-driven Nigerian writing scams have arrived recently & spun up fast. Two new ones: book club impersonations (charge a "spot fee" for appearance) & fake private book review communities (reviewers are "tipped" w/ a minimum buy) writerbeware.blog/2025/09/19/r...

Some of the crimes I've seen in Washington DC: — Beige sweater with beige chinos — Jacket sleeve tag left on — Tan shoes with navy suits — Giant Windsor knots (triple felony with the metal sports watch paired with dark suit and French cuffs)
Trump in a beige v-neck merino sweater and beige chinos. Donald Trump Jr. wearing a USA flag sport coat. The jacket tag has been left on the sleeve.Brendan Carr and Benny Johnson. Both wearing blue suits with tan shoes. Carr's suit is mid-blue. He has paired it with blonde shoes. Johnson is wearing a navy suit with walnut colored shoes. Matt Braynard wearing a navy suit with a white French cuff shirt and gold colored tie. He has a giant Windsor knot and a metal sports watch.

From Watergate to Havana Syndrome—America’s trust is broken, and crime fiction knows it. My new blog post explores how detectives evolved from Marlowe to Gage in an age of surveillance, conspiracy, and rot. www.dalemnelson.com/post/from-wa... #crimefiction #noir #watergate

Pardon my language, but “completely and totally obliterated” is one heck of a claim to make within *hours* of a strike on complicated underground facilities. We either have exquisite BDA resources in place, which is possible, or it’s a wishful claim made to sound big, which seems more likely.

So weird. Dropping in with no knowledge or understanding of the problem he tried to solve, or any real plan to do it & it spectacularly backfired. Weird.

The only fair way to handle this is to appoint a team of teenagers to tear this company limb from limb until we find out what kind of financial damage they are hiding and where

This is the cost of war. If we're going to send people into harm's way, we need to care for them after. This is something Trump and Musk, who have never served anything, do not understand. It's also callous to say veterans receive "absurdly generous" benefits. Tell an IED victim they get too much.

Insane article. The vast majority of this increase is because we were exposed to burn pits in Iraq and Afghanistan. It’s our generation’s agent orange. As a burn pit veteran myself, the economist is absolutely wrong here. My guess is there were no burn pit vets on the board that wrote this

My first book took me years to write--it's still unpublished--the second about 9 months. Now, I've got it down to 3-5 months for a first draft, plus 2-3 for revision. That's a faster pace than I'd like, but it's what the market demands these days.

I shipped my 14th novel yesterday. A difficult book to write & I suspect lot of work to do in revision. An editor once told me, if its kicking your ass, you're probably onto something.
