RELEASE DAY! Pentecost & Parker are back and trying to beat a murder charge. Some very enthusiastic readers have called it the most dramatic installment yet. You’ll have to read it and let me know if you agree. And if you’re in the area, stop by One More Page Books tonight (2/4) at 7pm and say hi!

Yes, the world is a vampire sent to drain, but sometimes you come home from the reading of a student’s first play and find a box of fresh paperbacks on your doorstep.

Hello Bluesky. I understand the password is a cat and an artistic statement. This is Luna, and like me she believes that all art is political, even art that consciously tries not to be. Because it’s a political choice whose stories we tell and whose we choose to receive.

A cat in a window. Sorry—a very petty, very smart cat
