Congrats to my brother @todgoldberg.bsky.social FANTASTIC @altajournal.bsky.social review for ONLY WAY OUT.

"Violent, hilarious, and thought-provoking by turns, 'Only Way Out' further cements Goldberg’s reputation as an heir to Elmore Leonard or Carl Hiaasen."

This Grifter’s Town Is Built on a Corpse and a Lie
In Only Way Out, Tod Goldberg leaves the desert for the Oregon coast, unspooling a hilarious, violent noir that redefines the meaning of hustle.

california is too interesting NOT to have its own magazine. enter: alta.

our upcoming issue is basically a love letter to california’s soundscape. headphones highly recommended.

california is beautiful, unpredictable, and mildly unhinged—which is why alta covers it so well.

the california book club meets next week with lisa see, and yes, it’s going to be iconic.
December 10, 2025 at 2:25 PM

“can we regroup this week?” absolutely not. it’s holiday mode. we regroup in the future, theoretically.
December 2, 2025 at 2:18 PM
if it’s not done now, it’s a 2026 problem. i don’t make the rules.
December 1, 2025 at 2:31 PM
happy leftovers day to those observing.

may your thanksgiving be cozy, peaceful, and completely free of unsolicited life advice from relatives who haven’t opened a book since 1998.

just a reminder: lisa see is our next california book club author and my calendar has been cleared accordingly.
