I'm not able to delete this account due to my involvement in class action lawsuits that require the preservation of it. However, going forward, I will post professional updates only. You can still DM, or find me elsewhere.
We want LeVar Burton to host Jeopardy for the same reason we venerate Bob Ross and Mr. Rogers, and the same reason the show Ted Lasso is so popular. Our culture yearns for, and desperately needs, men who are kind and gentle, and who will teach that by example.
Mitch McConnell stole a SCOTUS seat and packed the bench to overturn Roe. Now he wants to distance himself from Trump and MAGA. Fuck you, Mitch, you hideous shitbag.
Just saw a pirate site where a single book of mine…a book that never earned out its advance…has more than 41 THOUSAND ratings. It’s crushing to think about the difference that would have made to my family if it were actual sales. I know pirates wouldn’t pay anyway, but JFC.
PSA: If you see Knock at the Cabin and you post about it--or any time you post about it--please make sure you credit author @paulGtremblay for the novel it's based on, since the studio and filmmakers have gone to such lengths to avoid doing so. THE CABIN AT THE END OF THE WORLD
It's interesting to me how many people think this tweet is about Alex Trebek. It's not. It isn't even really about Jeopardy. It's about why so many of us want to lift up men like LeVar Burton.
Once again I've been told I'm alienating potential readers with my stance against Trump. Here's my reply: "I'd rather never sell a book again than stay silent about the racist, misogynist, corrupt, ignorant rapist in the White House." Priorities, people. Have a voice? Use it.
Chuck Wendig and every author and publisher who stand against book piracy are fucking heroes. Book pirates are thieves who take food off a writer's family table.
Obi-Wan Kenobi is excellent so far, and proves the best Star Wars formula is "aging, kinda broken warrior must rescue and protect adorable ward while hijinks ensue." Now do one with a 65 year old Rey and a ten year old Wookiee.
I've been a fan of Don Winslow the author from early in his career. I've been a fan of Don Winslow the human being for nearly as long. He's a champion, and we need more like him. Follow his new work. It's vital.
This will be my focus now.
"Democrats have better ideas, better candidates, and a better vision for tomorrow. What they don't have is BETTER MESSAGING and I'm going to try and change that."
I will be paying for everything myself and not accepting any donations.

Hugely disappointed to share that, despite its enormous success, Disney has refused to allow Audible to proceed with future seasons of SLAYERS: A BUFFYVERSE STORY. To my knowledge, they have provided no explanation. 1/2
