Important update: Occam's Razor has been renamed Rock 'Em, Sock 'Em's Razor. For coolness. It now states that whatever explanation is the most bitchin', no matter how gnarly it might be, must be the truth.

One of my favorite passages from WHERE THE BONES LIE... the incident with the Hummer is 100% fiction, but Angie is most definitely based on a certain real-life PR person. #amwriting

I know little of this world it’s implications but I’d imagine the questions arising about the large amounts of money are largely along the lines of “WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK HAVE YOU FUCKING JOKERS DONE WITH ALL THE FUCKING MONEY IN THE FUCKING WORLD THAT YOU WERE GIVEN?”

Have you pre-ordered WHERE THE BONES LIE? DM me your receipt and I'll mail you something cool and personalized! (Spoiler alert: I've found a trove of my books, including first editions and illustrated limited editions... roughly 30+ or so.) U.S.-only, just given the insanity of the postal system.

Sometimes a busy serial killer just needs to write out some basic instructions and even use a little ChatGPT, okay? No shame in that. #amwriting

I am a big fan of @nkolakowski.bsky.social not just because he's the only one of you willing to game out mass shooting events (for fiction, y'all...come on) but for many other reasons. Buy his book, or at least buy him a lap dance.
