Ruby’s 10th birthday is this week. Three years after the cancer diagnosis that she beat, and she is going strong. Still in remission and as healthy as ever! The vet says she is the poster dog for fighting cancer. Happy birthday, Ruby!

Beginning a process that I have long considered, which is creating a small press. For now, this is a placeholder. But look for more details soon. We will be seeking offbeat fiction and literary mystery, with a sweet spot for Southern Gothic. @brownhoundpress.bsky.social

The results are in for my #BookBub feature last week. Not bad, not bad. Hit #3 in Mystery on Amazon, right behind a Jack Reacher novel. I'll take it. More at: joshboldt.com/bookbub-feat...

Last day of the BookBub Featured Deal. During the sale my Kentucky Derby mystery has sold 950 copies. Sure would be cool to hit the 1,000 mark... 😀

Hell of a crew of Kentucky writers here for the 250Lex literary celebration. @wesblake.bsky.social @gwenda.bsky.social David Arnold and Bobbie Ann Mason—finally got to tell her how much I loved In Country when I read it twenty-five years ago in college.
