Bottom Deal, A Vegas Noir Thriller, is free for the next two days on KDP. A desperate poker room manager. A high-stakes con. And a city where loyalty changes faster than desert weather. #indiethrillers #quickreads

Finished the Dark Tower series again. I read it every 5 years or so and it gets better every time. The only problem with it is knowing we're not going to have more. I've been reading #stephenking for 40 years now, and have read every book, but this is only one I've read multiple times. #greatbooks

The Eli Carver Supernatural Thrillers - Manifest Recall, Recall Night, and Ghost Recall - were originally published as novellas between 2018 and 2021. Now they're being collected into a single volume - RECALL - out in Feb 2025. Cover soon! Any keen reviewers, we should have ARCs soon. Pls hit me up!

Re-watched Children of Men last night for the umpteenth time. Not only does it never get old, it gets more relevant every year. Do yourself a favor and re-watch it soon. Unless you haven't seen it. Then give it a whirl immediately. #greatmovies

As I am a writer and must peddle my wares lest I die in the abyss, hey! In April 2025, THE STAIRCASE IN THE WOODS emerges from the fog and the trees and if you wanted to pre-order it from your favorite local bookstore -- or get signed, personalized copies from Doylestown Bookshop -- that'd be nice.

Mackenzie Scott gives nonprofits unrestricted money without strings attached, instead of micromanaging and demanding they spend it in a certain way like, say, the Gates Foundation does.

Really interesting long essay on Netflix & the streamers. www.nplusonemag.com/issue-49/ess...

You absolutely do not need to read a whole book or finish a book to review it. If your experience was that the book didn't work for you and you DNFd, that's a perfectly fair thing to review.

Seriously, every metal fan needs to be following @twominutes.bsky.social It's a no-brainer.

Shoutout to @twominutes.bsky.social. The multi-artist covers helped me get through Covid. So many great collaborations. But here's my absolute favorite. Danny Carey+Les Claypool = absolute magic. Plus Bill Kelliher? Genius. And I'm not even really a big Rush fan. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fULw...

Donald Trump tapped drug user Matt Gaetz, who was found by the House Ethics Committee to have had sex with a 17-year-old girl, as America's Attorney General. The country's top cop! If you're not outraged by such blatant hypocrisy, you're not paying attention.

"This is Jack Burton in the Pork Chop Express, and I’m talkin’ to whoever’s listenin’ out there." 38 years ago today, Big Trouble in Little China changed the world. Happy birthday to one of the greatest films ever. Must be time for a rewatch.

Currently listening to Clutch's Blast Tyrant and Robot Hive/Exodus. Man, these guys rock so hard. Truly underappreciated. I suggest you give them a listen.

Listening to the new Blood Incantation album ABSOLUTE ELSEWHERE pretty much nonstop over the past week. Weird, sci-fi, existential, death metal 70's prog crossover. A unique and amazing band.

Shoutout to @angrymetalguy.bsky.social for having turned me on to Blood Incantation many years back. If you're hungry for some of the best reviews on the planet, check out his website. More metal than you can consume in a lifetime.
