Can't start the latest @tkingfisher.com book because I'm stuck on the dedication. My favorite author plays D&D and I haven't been trying my hardest to get her to one of the cons I'm working? What's wrong with me?

After decades of being overlooked and underrepresented at the Oscars, the horror genre is finally getting its due But I can’t help thinking it’s only because, at this point, horror is completely indistinguishable from our daily life and thus the judges don’t even think of it as genre work anymore

Living in Florida, I would guess that there will actually be a moment in my life where I'll have to deal with a gator. However, they're slowly outlawing reading here in Florida, so good luck finding a bookshop.

I should just go to bed at 1pm. If only I could be as tired at 9pm that I am immediately after eating lunch and taking a walk. At 1pm each day, I could close my eyes while standing up and take a small nap.

Having just read @travisbaldree.bsky.social 's cozy fantasy novels, Kindle is now telling me that there's an entire genre dedicated to this. Pretty sure these books, combined with the delightful @tkingfisher.com novels and Bujold's Penric series, Kindle has me buttoned up for a few months, here.

I maintain that Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon is best heard after a hard day's work, long after you really should have been in bed. Sometimes it's best heard while driving on a humid summer evening, with the windows down. Sometimes any time else. But mostly that first bit.
