On Thursday I had an article in Esquire, a review in NPR, and was emailing an editor for something huge. That’s all further proof that if you keep working, all the years of rejections and ignored emails amount to absolutely nothing. Keep doing the thing. Always.

Reminder: Love a writer’s work? Tell them. Seriously. A review or an email or something on social media. Whatever works for you. Sure, some might be assholes, but most writers I know are insecure a lot of the time and hearing from readers brightens up their day.

Remember: It’s okay to buy more books. It’s okay to get more books from the library. It’s okay to buy books you won’t read for years. It’s okay to pile books everywhere. It’s okay to get different editions of the same book. Books are awesome. Do whatever makes you happy.

Memo to the media: Your “both sides” reporting on the debt ceiling fiasco is misleading the public. To become speaker, McCarthy made a deal with right-wing MAGA House Republicans to use the debt ceiling as a way to hold America hostage. This is their manufactured crisis.

Small Beer Press is having a massive warehouse sale this week, with 70% discounts. More great books per square inch than any other publisher out there. Also including the never-to-be-reprinted MONSTERLAND, w/ the alternate cover for NALM. Once they're gone, they're gone forever.

Yes!!!
In addition to ideas for novels and stories, I have a ton of ideas that are smaller, and harder to pitch as books. So after fretting over it for too long a time, I'm going to be starting up a subscription service where I'll be offering this stuff to anyone interested.
