On the Sunday following the Decatur (Georgia) Book Festival, feeling inspired by the meeting of minds there & being in the company of so many kindred spirits of authors & readers. It's enough to make me want to write another book. (You've been warned.) #DBF2025 📚✍️

Stopped by @ugapress.bsky.social’s tent at the Decatur Book Festival to say hi and thank them for publishing a paperback edition of my book with them, “Tracking the Golden Isles,” out in March 2026. #DBF2025

Went to this year’s Decatur Book Festival & saw my science-humor-author idol, Mary Roach! She was here to talk about her new book, “Replaceable You.” And yes, she was funny. DBF2025

Can't believe #DBF2025 platformed Steven Pinker. He's a sloppy thinker, a bad writer, an unhappy person (which I have sympathy for) and a racist (for which I have none).
I was asked had I “mentally cancelled Stephen Pinker” when I said I was disappointed to see his appearance at the Dalkey Book Festival. I said nope just making a moral judgement on his laundering of racist views and soft supporting of the alt right is something that needs to be called out.
