Thanks to @ninthletter.bsky.social for featuring an excerpt of the novel along with an interview and lovely introduction by Nathan Metz. I published the first gasp of Range of Motion in Ninth Letter way back in 2013.
Submit to the Northwest Review! I'm happy to be EIC and fiction editor, working with CNF editor @michaelcopperman.bsky.social and poetry editor Jan Verberkmoes. We are bringing this historic magazine back from the dead. Expect our first issue to drop in March/April!
One of my favorite comedians blurbed my book. Zach Anner, actor and writer for ABC's Speechless, gave my novel the kindest endorsement I could ask for. Please watch the hilarious Speechless episode where he gets tased by Minnie Driver. This man deserves his own TV show. @acrebooks.bsky.social

The last of the Maryland book tour photos. I saw some old friends and made a few new ones and did that absurd tourist thing where you put your finger on the Washington monument. I will miss the people and their traffic.
Including RANGE OF MOTION (@btrapperkeeper.bsky.social) and DEFIANT ACTS (@thejs3.bsky.social)! πππ #fiction #booksky
