@mikeflanaganfilm.com the library saved my life when I was in high school. It was a sanctuary, a stillness, and a treasure. Mr. Morton introducing Carrie to the library was a beautiful, beautiful moment. And, the fact that every book she has is a banned book? Gloriously amazing.

Dear Audible. I like to listen to book previews while in between listens to get a sense of tone and narration. I'm asking, nay, begging, to start @stephenking.bsky.social previews at the first chapter and not the foreword. I already know I'm a fan of King, I need to hear the narrator! Thank you!

@talkscaredpod.bsky.social @chuckwendig.bsky.social I was thrilled to hear discussion of soap operas around the topic of TV today. I used to tell my husband that Sons of Anarchy was a soap opera for men and Yellowstone was SOA on horseback. Also, I loved Silas even though I shouldn't.

@chucktingle.bsky.social I'm currently reading Camp Damascus and I'm so heavily invested. I love this story. Most importantly for me, the patterned finger tapping has made me feel very seen and comfortable in the character space. I love this book so far.

@danielkraus.com I just saw the trailer for “Whalefall.” I don’t think I can adequately express what that book means to me. It altered me fundamentally. I read it exactly when I needed it. I’m so excited for this movie and will be adding the poster to my office.

Many thanks to @penguinrandomhouse.bsky.social ndomhouse.bsky.social, @netgalley.bsky.social y.bsky.social, and @keithrosson.bsky.social on.bsky.social for the ARC of "Crone." I am wildly and desperately in love with this novel. Here's my Goodreads review: www.goodreads.com/review/show/...

@keithrosson.bsky.social I really do love "Crone." It is my favorite novel of yours so far that I've read. If you should have signed copies for sale at any point, I would love to buy one. The cover art is nearly as gorgeous as the writing.

@danielkraus.com I received an ARC of "The Sixth Nik." I'm about 1/4 through. I like to read while I eat breakfast and found some of the descriptions powerful enough to stop reading while eating. This is the most sciencey of science fiction books. #ughhair #thatwasgross

I'm rereading "I was a Teenage Slasher" by @sgj.bsky.social and I had already forgotten what a love letter this book is to growing up in the desert in the 80's. I love this book so damn much. Lita Ford, the smell of creosote, FFA jackets, and small town nights. Man, what a time it was.

My Goodreads review of @alexgrecian.bsky.social's novella, "The Boatman." It's a fast-paced exploration of the race between life and death. In 150 pages, it delves into humanity, fear, frailty, and gives us a sprinkling of eco-horror. @badhandbooks.bsky.social www.goodreads.com/review/show/...

@ericlarocca.bsky.social I just got the ARC of “We Are Always Tender.” I appreciate the warnings. I recently started grief/trauma therapy. I feel as though I’m digging scars out of my soul with blunted and bloody fingernails. As much as I adore your prose, I may have to sit on this one a bit first.

If you haven't listened to the audiobook of "The Buffalo Hunter Hunter," you're missing out on an amazing experience. The narrators are spectacular, and the writing lends itself magnificently to the spoken word. @sgj.bsky.social is a masterful storyteller, and this is him at his very best.

It's hard trying to restart a feeble writing career later in life. The rejection letters make me feel rushed, like I don't have enough time to get it done. However, sometimes the rejection letters hold kindness that helps you remember you can keep moving forward. Today is a good day.

@adamcesare.bsky.social This may be an odd question, but do you, as the book writer, make money when "Clown in a Cornfield" moves to streaming? It never came to my hometown, and I haven't made a trip to the city yet. I am planning on purchasing it when it streams, though.

@natcassidy.bsky.social "When the Wolf Comes Home" is so very, very good. Not once have I known where it was going. Also, I was a huge Piers Anthony fan when I was young. The first few novels of the Xanth series were my gateway drug. My mom bought me a calendar of Xanth art when I was kid.

@catrionaward.bsky.social Your story in "The Shivers" sundered my soul. I resonated so deeply with the emotions of dealing with an alcoholic. It was well-written and so staggeringly accurate that I had to take breaks in the reading. It was also cathartic, cleansing, and glorious. I loved it.
