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

Perhaps, but if they try to arrest you can’t you just demand satisfaction & challenge them to a duel?

I get several emails each week from spoofed authors wanting links to my books. The fake James Patterson was jumping the shark, I thought.

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.

I would welcome a thoughtful assessment of disability evaluations and payment calculations, and for the VA to reform the process (it's "absurdly difficult"). I also don't think Musk possesses this kind of rigor. This is not the kind of thing you can reform with a chainsaw. Or without empathy.

Dale M. Nelson @dalenelson.bsky.social · 01/12/2024

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My first book took me years to write--it's still unpublished--the second about 9 months.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.
