I wrote a book of twenty alternate history scenarios (across 2400 years and 6 continents—sorry, Australia!) that is "sure to delight" any "history buff."

I realize I should have made this post more visually distinctive than the previous one. Anyway, the book is available for all! @ragesinggoddess.bsky.social , you are quoted (anonymously) on the back.

Okay, it's here! Available now in paperback and (inexplicably) ebook. Some typos fixed. A very nice cover by C. G. Coleman. No AI involved. A perfect Christmas gift. Only downside? It's on Amazon, alas. But I'm still excited. www.amazon.com/Blvd-Blood-H...

Um…a lady sips soda while sitting in a car. But it's a book cover!

My habit is to select images mostly at random, and then let the automatic system crop them as it will, but rarely had this habit produced such a clickable, attractive, accessible-to-the-kiddies marquee. haljohnsonbooks.substack.com/p/a-garland-...

I got so excited griping about how with a cop and a teacher on the ticket, the Democrats seem committed to only electing people who used to harass me when I was a teenager that I forgot to mention the release of my new book, a funny, amoral, over-researched guide to knights of myth and legend!

Picked up this adorable 1927 edition of Gentlemen Prefer Blondes at a library book sale yesterday. I'm a sap for a cute book (which I guess in this case is thematic).
