Still amazed that my AMA at r/fantasy got 73K visitors. It took me eight hours to answer all the questions. Should I do another when Endlords come out? www.reddit.com/r/Fantasy/co... #Endlords #JVJones @torbooks @orbitbooksuk.bsky.social @LittleBrown

Terrible decision to stay up for this Chargers prime time game. Of course they were going to shit the bed. It's nearly 4am now. Sigh. Maybe next year? #chargers

Choose 20 books that have stayed with you or influenced you. One book per day for 20 days, in no particular order. No explanations, no reviews, just covers.

Bolt up! Great win in the end, clutch throws from Herbae! That's what we like to see. Is Harbaugh the messiah? He just beat the Chargers curse (one game only, I know) #Chargers #nfl #BoltUp

This 2nd half is more like the Chargers we know. Please get the win Herbert 🤞 #nfl #Chargers
