Hot off the press, ready for the shelves. One week until the official drop date! Check with your local bookstore anyway, though I hear some have escaped early... @igpublishing.bsky.social #booksky #writersky #indiepub literarysky

Author, retired educator, determined optimist. So f*cking tired of the fight but damn it if I'm giving in. www.warren-read.com
Okay, I needed this. It's been too many days since I had a genuine, feel good laugh. BINGO, my friend.
Wab Kinew reacts to Donald Trump renaming Lake Ontario: "You know when a rock band is really over the hill and you see them in a casino playing some song from like 50 years ago? I think that's the part of Donald Trump's presidency we're at now."
The thing is, they/he never thought his policies would make people's lives easier. Further enriching himself, his family and the rest of the 1% was ALWAYS the goal. He's never cared about the working class and he never will.
Neera Tanden with a Sunday morning reality check: "The reality is, Donald Trump's policies are making working class people's lives harder, when they thought he'd make them easier."
www.huffpost.com/entry/bill-c... “The reality is…He is the acting attorney general, and because he was previously confirmed as deputy attorney general, Blanche could have carried on as the acting attorney general for the rest of Trump’s presidency.” Except, for decent humans, integrity matters.
Bill Cassidy Says He'll Support Todd Blanche for AG, Clearing Path For Confirmation
The Louisiana Republican is the final vote Trump’s attorney general pick needed to be confirmed.

The galley has arrived! Always such a surreal and humbling feeling to be able to hold your created world in your hand. 😊 @igpublishing.bsky.social #booksky #writersky #indiepub #literarysky
Grand premiere of the book trailer for my upcoming novel, "The Light Between the Pines (Ig Publishing)." Feel free to give it a gander and if it piques your interest, pre-orders can be made from all the usual places. :) @igpublishing.bsky.social #booksky #writersky #indiepub #literarysky
I just can't understand why the repub party/admin is all about taking things away. Almost every policy, law and court case is about forbidding/disallowing/restricting (unless, of course, you're in the 1%).
This should never have even been up for debate. If you are born in America, you’re an American. Period. 🇺🇸
Many thanks to an amazing writer for not only giving my upcoming novel a read, but weighing in. Coming 9/8/26 from Ig Publishing. @jamieford.bsky.social @igpublishing.bsky.social #books2read #indiebooks #booksky
OMG it keeps getting better and better (or worse? Depends on your POV).
😕🤷🏼
Do you remember that kid who gloated when he won the game, and stomped and cried and claimed "cheating" and "rigged" when they lost? Back then everyone called him a whiner and a liar, and shut him out. Now, the sycophants spoon feed him his pudding and smooth his hair and tell him how abused he is.
Just signed the contract and received the cover art for the new novel, set to hit shelves in the fall--From Ig Publishing. More deets to come!
The problem: If there are laws, and no one is willing/able to enforce them, they're meaningless.
✋ Former USG war crimes lawyer here. Apropos of SecDef's remarks this morning: Denial of quarter—even the declaration of no quarter—is a war crime. And recognized as such by the US Government. From DoD's Manual for Military Commissions.
For those of us not in the cult, this is what we hear when anyone from the Trump administration speaks. For the people in the back, this is satire and so well done…

After two years, I'm finally done with the novel (my third). Now, the tortuous task of agent querying. Anyone looking for a portrait of "small town, family dynamics" in the world of Kent Haruf / Richard Russo / Raymond Carver / Daniel Woodrell?
I'm sure it's been said to death but, dude, Superman was an immigrant (and I'm pretty sure he had no papers).
The 59-year-old star of the 1990s TV series Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman says he wants to join the fight against illegal immigration.
Dammit. Now I have to stop what I'm doing and get back to work on that time machine.
Tell the world you’re high on K without saying you’re high on K.
Guy is high as a kite at the Oval Office and that NYTimes story from early today is definitely fake news 🤣
