What an amazing book! This is the fastest Iβve ever read 900 pages. Pacing was incredible, and King Sorrowβs Freddy Krueger-meets-Smaug-with-Robert-Shawβs-Voice vibe was so fun.
Congratulations on such an accomplishment. Wow.
Aw, thanks, Chris.

INSTANT CLASSIC.
King Sorrow is by far my favorite @joe-hill.bsky.social novel. It made me feel like I was back in high school reading one of the great books that set me on this path to begin with. LOVED it.

But Doyle was always a clever hand when it came to misdirection and of course the best Sherlock Holmes stories are great because theyβre really about John Watson.

Title: How to focus on writing your book There follow eleven tiny images telling a story. The captions read: Turn your devices off (a writer with a phone and laptop. The screens are dark). Put them in a drawer. Lock the drawer. Throw away the key. Leave the house. Do not look back. Keep to backroads and hedgerows. Feel your old life slip away. (the writer has shed his clothes) Sleep by day. Forage in the evening. Write by the light of the moon When you have a passable first draft, commit a minor crime and use your phone call to contact your agent. (the naked writer is in a prison holding a phone while an unamused police officer looks on).

"You will hear everlastingly... this argument that the rich man cannot be bribed. The fact is, of course, that the rich man is bribed; he has been bribed already. That is why he is a rich man."
In a congressional hearing today, RFK, jr, stated: βI donβt think people should be taking medical advice from me.β
The correct next sentence shouldβve been, βFor that reason I am today resigning my post as head of Health and Human Services.β
