Author Kat Rosenfeld thinks we should honor "grumpy old men" like Otto Penzler even if they've spent the last few decades saying & doing really offensive, stupid things. What do you think?

- This scene in Sue Ann's bedroom from the Mary Tyler Moore show absolutely destroyed me the first time I saw it. It still does. Here's my favorite snippet.
00:00 - Thank you, @nbcsnl, for Woody Harrelson's insipid anti-vax monologue. Who are going to have guest host next week, Scott Baio? Rob Schneider? Kevin Sorbo? Maybe invite Kanye back while you're at it.
- Replying to @todgoldberg and @alafairburkeWhew. That's a relief. At least she didn't say "he's a terrible writer."
- Today is our 33rd wedding anniversary. I met Valerie when she was a tourist in Los Angeles, visiting from France, and I offered to show her around. I am still doing it 35 years later. Should I be worried that she still hasn't unpacked her suitcases?
- These crime author/screenwriters say not paying writers is a crime! Gary Phillips, Ken Levine, Duane Swierczynski, Howard A. Rodman, Michael Connelly, me , Jordan harper, Steph Cha , Attica Locke, Ellen Byron & many others #wgastrong #wga
- Replying to @lethal_heroineMy brother @todgoldberg went into a bookstore where his new novel was displayed on the counter to promote an upcoming signing. Tod asked the cashier if the book was any good. The cashier said no, it sucks, we're only having him in as a favor to his publisher.
- THE LINCOLN LAWYER series is a terrific adaptation @Connellybooks' books & also a fairly-clued mystery, too! I loved it. Can't wait for season 2.
- COVER REVEAL! My novel MALIBU BURNING, a standalone thriller, is coming out June 2023. Many thanks to @MarkGreaneyBook for the great cover blurb! Find out more here: amazon.com/exec/obidos/as…
- I just read this terrible line in a novel: "With each breath she took, her breasts swelled out through the cloth, nodding wisely at me." Can breasts do that? I've yet to see a breast nod, wisely or otherwise.
- I fired up the gas BBQ grill, heard a screech & saw a huge freaking rat running around the jets. I shut it off. He's still there. Now we have to sell the house.
- This is very sad news for mystery fans: COLUMBO co-creator William Link has passed away. Not only was he incredibly talented, he was one of the nicest men in the TV business. Here's a treasured photo of me, Steve Cannell, and Link together in Santa Barbara for an event.
