I’ve been working through a list of “best” romantic comedies with my wife (which has vigorously reignited my love for Julia Roberts). Last night was Bridget Jones’s Diary and even within the framework of rom-coms, it’s very bad. I was kind of flabbergasted. Why was it such a phenomenom?

ICYMI, I have a story in the new issue of @oysterriverpages.bsky.social, which is officially out today. I listened to Mac Miller's Balloonerism, thought about my own death, and produced this little number. #amwriting #amreading #booksky

I spent today sitting with lit. Reading, writing, editing. It was a response to having my car in the shop. Now I wanna get rid of my car.

I've read some fucking killer books in 2025. My to-read list just keeps growing. Got anything to add to it? #Booksky

What's the best thing you read in 2025? #amreading #booksky

Excited to jump into this one @austinross.bsky.social !

I'm happy to report I'm once again watching Arrival.

I was inspired to write my new story after listening to Mac Miller's Balloonerism and wondering what it'd be like after I died.

Now reading thanks to Dzanc Books. #booksky

I watched the movie so many years ago, I feel like I'm starting fresh. Part of my issue is how cold it all reads. I get she's a scientist but it doesn't make for a great reading experience.
