14 years after I penned this teenaged love letter to #pinkfloyd singer Rachel Fury, her mystique & the awareness of my ode to her has only grown. I've recently updated it with some fascinating new information.

Having finished this collection overnight, I'm convinced Jim Harrison was one of the greatest poets of my lifetime.

This is my Magnus Opus - a novel I was told I had no business writing. How could I - a white man - write a black woman's story? This was my answer...

@chatterton.bsky.social's Summer Of Our Discontent is a surgical examination of the past decade of our cultural moment. It a clear eyed review of contentious American outrages, a fierceless critique of the political spectrum & it offers ideas for solutions.

It is 'The Rebel' of our time.

@chatterton.bsky.social My print pre-order is still in play but I couldn't resist when I saw it in the Audible store. Great to finish my night duty with you.

@walsh.bsky.social accidentally introduces @lukeburbank.bsky.social to the “Kubrick Stare”. They also find out how one TBTL Ten got a piece of a rocketship permanently embedded under her skin.

(it's Vincent D'Onofrio's stare for me).

"A powerful and luminous collection of stories, verse and reflection recalling the spirit of Albert Camus, Jim Harrison & Rainier Maria Rilke. This is Dean Mayes' most compelling & personal work - a perfect primer to his back catalogue."

@lukeburbank.bsky.social and @walsh.bsky.social recount their time in the world’s busiest Subway sandwich shop. They also hear from a former McDonald’s employee with a story about the strangest fast food order she ever received.

@walsh.bsky.social saw a concerning post on Bluesky that has him worried about the future of his favorite thermostat. He & @lukeburbank.bsky.social check-in on the TBTL VM's concerning old coots at baseball games & the dangers of parents explaining swear words to their kids.

I am a working writer. If you like my work. If my work moves you, consider buying me a 'Kofi'?

In their ongoing efforts to listen to every message on their voicemail line, @lukeburbank.bsky.social and @walsh.bsky.social delve into Tens’ garbage anxiety (and the anxiety of their trash collectors.) Andrew also accidentally flirts with a listener.

There was a great crowd in Adelaide this afternoon Tim. I almost didn't go (my legs weren't agreeing with me today). But my wife convinced me and I went and I'm glad I did.
