If you're in Portland, Oregon, this Wednesday, I'm talking with @mrbrianbenson.bsky.social about THE ART OF BREVITY—and writing in general!

Come on by Broadway Books!

Had such an inspiring time talking writing in ever-charming Jacksonville, Oregon, with one of my favorite "in conversation" partners, Larry Rosen, at Anchor Valley Wine.

A big, special thanks to Rebel Heart Books, who generously sold my books. It's the sweetest, coziest bookstore in the world.

I wanted to share this cute cartoon of a recent podcast interview I gave on the subject of rejection. Loved doing the interview because I got to talk about my book on rejection--which was rejected!

Here's the link to the interview: hustlingwriters.com/grant-faulkn...

I discovered the most inspiring theater in the dusty cracks of Death Valley.

And I learned important creative lessons from the dancer, Marta Becket, who danced like a dust devil.

It's just so natural to celebrate Maw Shein Win! As a person and as a writer (and a performance artist to boot).

She just published such an interesting collection of poetry, "Percussing the Thinking Jar." I could have listened to her read the whole book last night. It's my next read, for sure.

My good friend Anya Grundmann sent me a drawing of me with my #100wordstory "The Toad" today, and I was just so touched by it.

Anya started drawing a year ago or so, out of the blue. For fun. But I think she should start an author portraiture studio. This made my day, my week, my month.

My first post: my dog Buster. He's a lover. He's got mighty aspirations.

Let's hope Bluesky follows suit. I'd like my social media to be more like my dog.
