AL-oween is just around the corner, and so…we asked ourselves what would “Tight & Nerdy” look like as a horror movie?

Just look 👀 at this 🔥 📖 cover!
THERE’S ONLY ONE SIN IN HOLLYWOOD comes out from @flatironbooks.bsky.social on June 2, 2026, and is available for preorder everywhere books are sold. As seen in, People, this novel centers on a gay Black movie star during the Golden Age of Hollywood. Sex, Hollywood censorship, and love abound.

The best 46 year-old I know…
Today is my birthday. I’m 46, and it dawned on me recently that if I want to write all the books and screenplays currently taking shape in my imagination, I’m going to need to live another 46 years — maybe longer. Time retains an urgency for me. I still have so much to do.

Thirty years after its short but memorable run on ABC, it is widely regarded as a miraculous one-season wonder that captures the era’s competing strains of irony and earnestness.
