- After a few years of planning, I started my new novel this week. The story begins in Cairo in 1940 and ends in New York City in 1999. Wish me luck. . (Illustration by my brother, Stokley)
- Taking my daughter to college in Ohio, we visited this giant coffee pot in Bedford, PA, on the LINCOLN HIGHWAY! The shot was the perfect complement to the one of me and my son at the giant donut in LA that I posted 7 years ago. ☕️ 🍩 🎉

- I was signing at @mcnallyjackson and ran into this giant! She was signing her newest, A BOOK OF DAYS. 1 thing I love about Patti Smith is that her art is always a call—to action, to love, to life. Her voice is at times gentle, at times fierce and the world is richer for it.
- I’m thrilled that Chris Storer, creator of THE BEAR, will be writing and directing the feature film of my novel THE LINCOLN HIGHWAY at @warnerbros

- Correct. My book coming out in April is TABLE FOR TWO, a story collection which includes a 200 page noir novella about Eve from RULES OF CIVILITY. The Cairo novel will be out in 2025, if all goes well…
@amortowles in your recent newsletter you talk about the book next year but this isn’t the one you’ve been writing which starts in Cairo right? Thanks! - At the premiere of A GENTLEMAN IN MOSCOW: Just when we have the family shot lined up, we get photobombed by Obi-Wan! 😂
