I am delighted to finally announce that my debut novel, THE AROOSI ARRANGEMENT, is coming October 14, 2025

This is the Iranian-Canadian, fake-dating romance of my heart, and I can't wait for you all to meet Sharzad and Sam 💜

arezouamin.com/books/the-ar...
A book cover featuring a man and a woman dressed nicely, set against the Toronto skyline, with text above them reading "The Aroosi Arrangement" and "Arezou Amin" The back of a book featuring the toronto skyline and the following summary: Sharzad Daryai looks like she’s got it all, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. She’s 32 years old, her dream job turning stale, and she’s desperate for a change. And then she finds out her brother is getting married. Her younger brother. Sharzad’s never been particularly lucky in love, but she doesn’t want to face another round of pitying aunties and uncles asking when it’s going to be her turn. When her siblings insist she needs to bring a date to the wedding, or else, she needs a solution. And fast. Sam Kazemi is a golden boy whose shine is tarnished. Sure, he’s got the fancy degree from an American school, but his girlfriend just dumped him and his dream project is in trouble. With a head for numbers, Sam has no flair for the creative, and no desire to admit he’s bitten off more than he can chew. After a pair of heated chance encounters, Sharzad and Sam strike a bargain: She’ll help him find a creative solution to his business woes if he agrees to pose as her boyfriend at all wedding-related events. The lines between work and play, real and fake begin to blur, but romantically-reluctant Sharzad and overly-confident Sam maintain that after the wedding, they’ll go their separate ways. After the wedding, things will go back to normal, with no feelings in the way. Right? Right?

I hope Bob and Alan’s pillows are forever uncomfortably warm and a little damp, and smell like moldy gym socks on both sides. Fumbling the bag doesn’t even begin to describe it

‘The Hunt For Ben Solo’: Steven Soderbergh & Adam Driver’s Secret ‘Star Wars’ Movie Was Greenlit Before Disney Pulled The Plug [Exclusive]
‘The Hunt For Ben Solo’: Steven Soderbergh & Adam Driver’s Secret ‘Star Wars’ Movie Was Greenlit Before Disney Pulled The Plug [Exclusive]
Shoulda, woulda, coulda, I guess. Six months ago, I learned that Steven Soderbergh and Adam Driver had quietly developed a post- “Rise of Skywalker” “Star Wars” film titled “The Hunt For Ben Solo,” written by Scott Z. Burns, but out of an abundance of reporterly caution, I didn’t go forward with the story. This week, Driver himself revealed the project’s existence in an Associated Press interview, confirming that he and Soderbergh had worked on a “Star Wars” movie that never came to fruition.

Adam Driver really saw all the Force Awakens trailer nostalgia and went “hang on, I’ve got a funny story”
a man says " i know what i have to do "
Alt: Ben solo says " i know what i have to do but I don’t know if i have the strength to do it"

BOB IGER: Your character is dead, the meeting is over, and when I kill your project, I will have killed the last Reylo! ADAM DRIVER: Amazing. Every word of what you just said was wrong. The pitch deck is reborn today. The negotiations are just beginning. And I will not be the last Reylo...[cut to Steven Soderbergh in his office]

To be 100% upfront, this year is rough. Due to the tariffs, NONE of the toy companies who’ve worked with us in years past are able to pitch in. I went to the store just to put together these demo baskets. Even if you can’t buy a full basket, smaller donations are appreciated!

I finished The Aroosi Arrangement by the superbly talented @arezouamin.bsky.social.

I seriously needed to read a full on romantic story between two Iranic people. With such beautiful prose, wit, and depth Arezou has made something amazing.

Colbert I do find delightful in a Catholic uncle way, but it IS just a little bit embarassing that we have to go to the mat like this for Jimmy Kimmel, a man I have only ever watched on television against my will

but here we are!!! and it’s what we have to do!!!

I just…no shade to actors just trying to work, but with all the Persian actors working today, why is the lone narrator for Audible’s “immersive” Shahnameh audiobook a white man 🫠
A screenshot of audibles Shahnameh audiobook, page promising a 12 hour immersive audiobook experience narrated by Marc Thompson who I’m sure is lovely but doesn’t seem the best fit to read the definitive Persian epic poem
