reading a great book by our buddy @colinwinnette.bsky.social (who was wonderful at our SF reading) but the main character is named Miles and i keep shaking my head and saying “I would never do that”

Thanks to everyone who made this happen. It has been one of the most unimaginable months in my entire life. I can’t wait for y’all to meet Saul!

This holiday, order any Winnette book from local indie bookstore @booksmith.bsky.social’s website, & I’ll sign it + gift you a copy of THE INVENTION OF MOREL (on me!).

Shop indie and get a great, weird book (a huge influence on USERS) for free! Just leave a note in your order asking for Morel. 🎁

Here's your daily reminder that bookstores keep the love of reading alive — but they also keep neighborhoods beautiful. They are places to gather, to celebrate stories, to find community.

Please do your holiday shopping at your local independent bookstore, if you are lucky enough to still have one.

Some news to start the day! My first foray into non-fiction will involve spending an inordinate amount of time with a film I grew up spending an inordinate amount of time with…

Thanks to @BloomsburyPub and Nic Rombes!
