Great to chat with @kevinmkearney.bsky.social about his excellent new novel FREELANCE. We cover it all: Raymond Chandler, gig work, Philly vs NJ. The list goes on.

Went to sleep way too late because I couldn't put down @kevinmkearney.bsky.social's FREELANCE, then had theeee most fucked up dreams. 10/10, if your book doesn't infiltrate my sleep state, I can't hang.

My second book arrives May 31 from @rejectionlit.bsky.social. It's a speculative noir about a rideshare driver in Philly. It's called FREELANCE.

Cover for the downright important, life-changing, and epoch-defining novel FREELANCE by Kevin M. Kearney

She was told to smile. She was always told to smile at the start of her shift. Cammie, give ‘em that smile. Not a suggestion, but mandatory. And she’d give it to ‘em. But tonight… The clients in here ...

New story from Terrance Wedin on Short Story, Long! In the intro, I shoutout @kevinmkearney.bsky.social's "The Sons of Jesus' Son," his review of Nick Rees Gardner & Michael Deagler, in thinking how this story feels in that convo & lineage (while hoping Wedin takes that as the compliment I mean).

“Advocate” by Terrance Wedin

"I told him what kind of drugs I did. I lied. I told him I did the boring kind. He asked how long it had been since I'd done them. I lied again."

See you at the Book Catapult tomorrow! I’m reading part of a story that features a person getting a massage at Kobey’s Swap Meet!!! I may decide it’s terrible later and abandon it but for now you can delight in my misguided errors!
