Ways to tell that scam email isn't really from an editor at Penguin Random House: 1) It's a long, glowing, AI-regurgitated synopsis of your book followed by gibberish-level corporate speak 2) Actual editors PROBABLY won't email you from "penguinrandomhouse@firstname.lastname.co.site"?

My favorite tea shop was broken into very early this AM, and suffered property damage and theft. If you wanna support them in their recovery, one of my faves from them is this super dessert tea. They also do custom blends, have a book club and much more! www.fridaytea.com/products/wit...

We have the chance this year to not only take back the House (or if we're dreaming, even the Senate), but to primary the hell of a lot of D losers and shift the party significantly to the left. We have the chance to lean on ALL of our reps to actually do something.

Launching a big ad push for Spellmonkeys, but the AMZ sales page is crying out for reviews. How well this goes will literally decide whether I continue the series (which I want to REAL BAD). So if you want more of Frinzil and her friends, please go drop a quick review on Amazon! bit.ly/4qkvMqG

Made the mistake of saying "let's get down to business" when I started making buttons to give away at Orycon this weekend and now I have the entire fucking Mulan soundtrack stuck in my head so that's how my day is going orycontemp.tezhme.net

Had maybe the most fun I've ever had on a panel yesterday at #Worldcon2025 - How to Survive the Zombie Apocalypse for Teens. The kids were super engaged and we had a blast. Plus my kid sat in on a panel for the first time ever! Highlight of the con so far, but it's only Saturday so BRING IT WORLDCON

Proofreading the new book, and found a typo in my own name on the copyright page. ...Where it was copy-pasted from the old book, which has apparently said "cover design by Matt Youngmak" in print for three solid years.
