@danielmiller.bsky.social Jeff says this knife is his favorite, his everyday carry. When he flicks it, the loose, chipped blade snaps open. JEFF SAYS by @danielmiller.bsky.social www.bruisermag.com/miller_jeffs...

I answered some q’s & shared some pics of our new spot on the @asterismbooks.bsky.social blog, & they rec’ed a few of our books. Long live Asterism! asterismbooks.com/blog/post/pu...

Some rereads. Some first time reads. @emilylauracosta.bsky.social was, is, and will always be stellar.

🚨 christine (1983) -- one of the best stephen king film adaptations and probably my fav depiction of friendship on screen -- is on shudder 🚨

Cheering for Schmitt’s Gay, then cheering even louder for Robot Insurance. Probably could’ve just done a full night of ad parodies

I don’t write a *ton* of lovey sorta stuff, but I’m still hella proud of this essay I had pubbed in @major7mag.bsky.social a year or so ago about how marriage can be scary and unpredictable but also lovely and awe-inspiring and wonderful.

doing dumb things with my sister πŸ₯°

don’t wanna ruin the ending of this really fun new @aaronburch.bsky.social story, but I’ve always hoped for a similar scenario irl πŸ›οΈ

Recently finished GIRL ON GIRL by @emilylauracosta.bsky.social and man was it greatβ€”just an awesome, awesome collection that makes you wanna laugh and cry and watch old MTV clips and wander the mall. Can’t say enough good things about it.

Today my novel Supersymmetry is released. I started work on it in 2018. It was accepted by @ooliganpress in 2022. Needless to say this was a long process, full of hope, patience and anticipation. I hope you enjoy reading it as much I did writing it.

so excited to be part of this launch! thank you @femmeintheory.bsky.social & @kevinrmaloney.bsky.social !

Finished @emilylauracosta.bsky.social book GIRL on GIRL from @rejectionlit.bsky.social This press is building serious cred in my book. The stories are linked in a through vein of nostalgia, sadness, cynicism and a young persons idea of love.

Really surprised and impressed with the structure of this story in Girl on Girl.Feels like it will be taught one day, the dichotomy and rising action of each character couple in opposition to each other and then finally at the end, synchronous @emilylauracosta.bsky.social @rejectionlit.bsky.social

just got word from @clashbooks.bsky.social that we have maxed out the amount of preorders they can fulfill direct from their site (kinda bad ass, it now says "sold out"), so if you still want to preorder a copy, please go here: indiepubs.com/products/hey...

So psyched to be reading short story collections and thinking about the #100smallpress project. They are beautiful and strange, each in their own way. @egreenberg.bsky.social @emilylauracosta.bsky.social @sherrieflick.bsky.social @cowboyjamboree.bsky.social #booksky
