I curated a new Amazon Original Stories Collection called MAGIC & MYSTERY, with stories by: @robertjbennett.bsky.social @travisbaldree.bsky.social @sarahbethdurst.bsky.social @scottlynch78.bsky.social @tananarivedue.bsky.social, Heather Fawcett & J.M. Miro Out July 28! amzn.to/4gjGIDF

Magic & Mystery: an Amazon Original Stories Collection. A cat's face with eyes glowing with pink and white magic. Below it are seven book covers, described below. "Miss Gentle and the Case of the Very Flat Monk" by Travis Baldree: A figure in armor with a full closed helmet stands in the foreground, with a tall stone bell tower behind it. Purple magical energy swirls around a collection of trinkets hanging from the figure's neck. "The Lion's Tusk" by Robert Jackson Bennett: A stained-glass window depicts two finely dressed medieval nobles clasping hands, one holding a bouquet. "Battle of the Round House" by Tananarive Due: A figure in a wide-brimmed hat stands beneath a wooden gate at sunset, facing an enormous cloud in the sky in the shape of a bull's head. "The Wednesday Witches Book Club" by Sarah Beth Durst: A white teapot with flowers and a cat etched onto it pours tea into a similarly-decorated teacup. In the background are shelves filled with books. "A Labyrinth of Honeybees" by Heather Fawcett: A large honeybee with maze-like markings on its abdomen hovers above a garden. "The Wizard Who Kept Himself Suspicious" by Scott Lynch: A wizard with a long white beard stands waist-deep in water. He's holding a wooden staff and wearing a pointed wizard hat; on the had are several small trees as if his hat is an island, and some waterfalls cascade off the brim of it. "The Carindale Orphan" by J.M. Miro: A stout man wearing a bowler hat and overcoat walks beside a young boy down a dark Victorian-era cobblestone alley.

I do not yet have the words to describe what a mind-blowing experience the 2026 Launch Pad Astronomy Workshop was. A lifetime’s worth of learning, friendships, and deep joyous conversation stuffed into a single week. I will never be the same.

The cohort and instructors for the 2026 Launch Pad Astronomy Workshop stand in front of the University of Wyoming's 2.3-meter telescope at the Wyoming Infrared Observatory.

Look, if you don't want people to exhale a sigh of relief when you die, there's an easy solution: don't be an absolute asshat when you're alive. Alternatively: if you believe bad people go to hell, then perhaps hell is just an eternity of people talking shit about what a living horror you were.

No better feeling than when someone else’s dog or cat picks you to hang out with, and their owner's always all "awww he likes you" and you play it cool like "he probably just smells my dog" but inside you're just absolutely screaming OF COURSE HE LIKES ME I AM THE CHOSEN ONE AND VERY SPECIAL
