I just called both my Senators to tell them to support Sen. Chris van Hollen's bid to be Senate Majority Leader. I think all y'all should too. Both had an option to leave a message so you may not have to talk to someone in person. I made both calls in under two minutes total.

Finally. I haz it. Yeeees. Thanks @joabaldwin.com, once done with the current two books, this one will be the next.

Why do they call it Outlook when you of in the look of out not email the look?

Well my weekend is set. Thanks @joabaldwin.com I did flip through to look at the pictures. I had to.

I just finished a full edit of Book 6 and I'm feeling exactly like I felt the time I finished the first draft in 2022. These final chapters... man.

Book get!! Time to continue this wonderfully written saga~ @joabaldwin.com

I went through several titles before settling on Wings of the Wayfarers, and even designed the logos. - Aetheric Empire: bad alliteration (depending on your pronunciation). - Windward Wings: too much 80's power ballad. - Wrath of the Wingmaster: voiced by the "In A World" trailer guy.

I just finished the audiobook of Game of Life by @robmacwolf.thevoice.dog and @khaki.dog and I was thrilled by the directions it took (plus the narration is fantastic!).

okay if self-promotion is detestable, promoting the work of others is not: tell us about a book you want people to read! provide a link if possible! let’s pass some love around

If one could hold it open to a specific passage, we all know what it would be too. It's astonishing and sad how prescient this book was. This was _1995_.

A cool detail @caraid.bsky.social added on the Wings of the Wayfarers cover illustration is the reversible toe from ospreys. They can shift between ☮️ and ❌ to better hold to slippery fish.

It arrived today! Can’t wait to dig in! He said be careful not to get five hernias by holding them all but I can only count to 4 so 🤷 📖 : @joabaldwin.com Have you started Noss Saga yet? If not, what’re you waiting for??? www.joaquinbaldwin.com It’s seriously an amazing read you’re missing out!

🌈📚 Title reveal! 🐺⚔️🦌 It's only been a week since the release of Book 5, but I'm already deep in the edit of Book 6, which will be titled Confluence of Consciousness. This final volume needs a lot of love and polish. Coming soon, but not so soon.

Book 5 finally came!! It has been such a wonderful experience getting to read @joabaldwin.com's series. I'm especially excited about this one because planning to get a tattoo of the clades in February, but I've been waiting to finalize the design until I got the read the latest installment

Noss Saga V: Wings of the Wayfarer by @joabaldwin.com is out now!! Take to the air and experience the mysteries of the Yenwu Dome!

Hey there, bookseller here: can confirm! It is *already* really bad and it is only going to get worse, unfortunately. If you want something for the holidays, you would do well to order it RIGHT NOW. Like, RIGHT NOW.

Alma Katsu (INCARNATE is out now!)@almakatsu.bsky.social · 4d ago

Hey, just saw American Booksellers Association warning member bookstores that supply chain issues are forecast to be terrible this holiday season, so my advice to you is BUY THE BOOK when you see it on the shelf and don't wait until later. Because you might never see it again.

Wings of the Wayfarers is here! They look so good together 🥲🤍 Still halfway into Feral Flame but day 1 support as always 🙏 @joabaldwin.com #NossSaga

I switched to a non-Amazon e-reader just so I could support my local bookstore with my e-book purchases -- you can do it too! (I like and have tried: many different Boox models; the lowest-priced one is the Gen 6 (Gen II) and it is a full Android tablet which means you can also read articles on it)

your annual reminder that, every year, bookstores make a third or more of their money between now & New Year’s ☺️ meanwhile, Amazon supports & abets ICE most bookstores ship nationwide. A lot of them also have stores on bookshop.org

Good form. Proper bacon oblations for the Child.

I love this panel of the 737-900 safety pamphlet, which demonstrates proper procedure for how survivors should pledge fealty to ~T h e B u o y a n t C h i l d~

Time for a new cosplay thread from our last roadtrip! We got lots of good ones this time, from deep ferny canyons, to moody Oregon headlands, insane waterfalls (got wet!), and elk murdering sprees. Many photos by @dahlumii.bsky.social as usual, mixed with selfies. #NossSaga #Cosplay

Fox is doing a fantastic work with the music for Book 5. I had one of his new songs stuck in my head all day yesterday. Apart from the orchestral albums, he writes the music so that the narrator (Magnus Carlssen) can sing the songs in the audiobooks (with no instrumentation). It's such a luxury.

Fox Amoore 🔜 🇵🇱@foxamoore.bsky.social · last wk.

Hey! It’s #bandcampfriday - an especially good day to grab new music and support the artist. My soundtrack work at 50% off for just today (cause I’m feeling real hopeful ^.^ 🧡) foxamoore.bandcamp.com 🎨: @joabaldwin.com , @alector.bsky.social.

The author’s confidently articulated fetish, woven with elegance throughout the work resulting in a thematically complete object

Am I doing this right? 💪💜🐺

Please contact your Senators and House Representative and ask them to vote no on Schumer for Senate Majority Leader and no on Jeffries for House Speaker. This is more effective than a petition! To be connected to your members of Congress, call the Capitol Switchboard at 202-224-3121.

These cover illustrations by @caraid.bsky.social are so pretty and go so well together.

OH SHIT NEW NOSS SAGA BOOK LAUNCHED YESTERDAY AND WE BEAT FASCISM?! AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH (happy screams)
