Had fun listening to @jonathanmaberry.bsky.social ask @peterclines.bsky.social about his new novel, God's Junk Drawer. Good times.

Had a great time as an orchestra played the music for beloved scenes from #Avatar: The Last #Airbender at SDSU. Ended with a stirring rendition of Secret Tunnel. #Aang #Appa #Iroh

Discovered a nice restaurant called The Henry with a delightfully whimsical logo. I feel seen.

Thrilled to have an essay in another issue of Weird Tales Magazine, along with many fine author friends. Come for the #cryptids, stay for the weird.

This family scores points for size, creativity, and economically sensitive re-use.

Iroh reminds you to stop and smell the flowers... or dog butts. Whatever works for you. #dogstagram

Guess who I chatted with at a signing of her Blind Date with a Werewolf. Go on, guess! That's right, the delightful and talented bestseller, Patty Briggs @mercysgarage.bsky.social and her trusty assistant, Sparky. #urbanfantasy

I can always get York the Husky talking and howling. Once he starts, all the other doggies join in. I feel like part of a pack. #dogstagram #HowlsWithDogs

Someone on Threads called 47 and Hegseth “Fat Man and Little Boy” because they bombed so hard yesterday, and if those aren’t their Secret Service code names by the end of the day, then what the hell are we even doing?

Tr*mp has taken a wrecking ball to the government, the economy, foreign policy, & what it means to be American. There is no cavalry coming to protect us from his unchecked power. It's up to US to protest corruption, incompetence, & abuses of power.

Time to stand a watch on the wall of democracy!
