"The Indifferent Stars Above" is so vivid.
Ok BlueSky: what are your favorite history books in terms of sheer page-turning, narrative propulsion? Thinking along the line of Killers of the Flower Moon, etc. Nonfiction chronicles that read like novels or movies.

The Athletic polled hundreds of players from across the NBA, NFL, MLB and NHL about their opinions surrounding how sports betting impacts players — the responses were haunting.

I think "Bluets" crowbarred my writing mind open. Once you trust your voice, you can follow it anywhere. And a story will tell you how to trace its shape if you listen
performative reading, lack of reading skills, nobody's reading anymore -- NO!

tell me about a book that changed you

for me? the *extremely* ahistorical novel, THE AGONY AND THE ECSTASY which I read at 13 and was like, "Oh, art can be *everything* to a maker, for good and bad"

Weird that we have a planet-wide magnetic defense system that self activates when the sun decides to attack but it is very pretty

Writers truly play with magic. And sometimes writers are shockingly uncreative when you least expect
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”

Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:

“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

Baseball is the worst because my team was eliminated 2.5 months ago and the next pitch might kill me. It is Nov. 1

Baseball. A game of feet. That’s why they call it football

Just realized I must’ve forgiven the Blue Jays for the Bautista bat flip around Game 5. Once a Rangers fan, always an underdog fan.
