A promotional image that says, "Booked Up Signing Event. Join us in welcoming Kalamazoo Native Jes Honard and Co-Author Marie Parks! Joining them is 4-time Hugo Award Winner Mary Robinette Kowal!

Folks in Western Michigan, if you wish to brave the snow this Saturday, I will be giving a reading and signing books at Booked Up in Kalamazoo at 1 PM along with @jeshonard.bsky.social and @marieparks.bsky.social. Come say hello!

Over a colorful blue and orange background, the words, "Booked Up Signing Event: Join us in welcoming Kalamazoo Native Jes Honard and Co-Author Marie Parks! Joining them is 4-time Hugo Award Winner Mary Robinette Kowal! January 24th, 2026, 1PM - 2PM, 4518 W Main St, Kalamazoo, MI 49006." Under this are photos of the three authors.

There's a brand-new bookstore opening in Kalamazoo, MI on January 2nd, and I'm honored to be their first guest author appearance, along with @jeshonard.bsky.social and @marieparks.bsky.social. I'll see you for a reading and signing at Booked Up on Saturday, January 24 at 1:00 p.m. ET.

Hey, those are my books in that stack!

If this Gaston movie happens, this the only version of him I want to see.

When I left Michigan last week it was fall.

When I returned yesterday it was winter.

Cue me shaking my fist at the (way too prevalent) clouds.

Yayyy!!

Tried a new therapist today. 20 minutes into my spiel she looks at me point blank and asks, "So, have you always had control issues?"

I've never been called out so fast and so accurately in my life. 😂

Thank you! They're by the incredible @laurenrayesnow.bsky.social

As another writer, I approve of this message.

🤩

Thank you!!

Thank you!!

Order Undeniable - The Grigori Cycle Undeniable is the second book of The Grigori Cycle. If you haven’t read book one, we recommend you head here to order Unrelenting first. This page contains spoilers for the first book, so continue wit...

Grab your copy of this supernatural thriller: www.thegrigoribooks.com/order-undeni...

And just drool over that amazing cover for a bit. SO good.

Book Birthday!!!!!!!! 🎂 🥳✨🎉

Undeniable is OUT! 💃

Here's a T. Rex bored to death trying to bite their own tail. My partner asked me to animate it in stop motion, after she watched a video about the very important topic of "could T. Rex chew its own tail like a dog". The puppet is still a work in progress 🦖

A blue unicorn holds an American flag.

Excellent turnout in #Kalamazoo, Michigan.

Thank you for the kind words! I'm so glad you enjoyed it.

Honestly, I respect her refusal to participate in unpaid labor

A Tabby cat looks up at the camera with her ears back. A paperback copy of Undeniable sits in front of her.

Roving hovers near her button board, looking scandalized.

Tried to do a photo shoot of Undeniable with the cat.

She immediately went to her buttons and pressed "All Done."

The moment I opened the laptop and my work login was stating back at me? I wilted.

Went to a Shut Up and Write event.

Brought the wrong computer. 😭

Everything is FINE.

My new book is in my haaaaaaaaaaaands!

It's honestly one of my all-time favorites. Between the music, the topic, and the sheer skill of the actors playing so many roles at once... I love everything about it.

Saw Come From Away at the local theatre tonight. Second time seeing it on stage and yep, it still makes me cry multiple times. SUCH a good show.

The feeling of holding a physical copy of your book for the first time never gets old. ARCs are here, and I'm filled with joy! Thank you for this stunning cover art @laurenrayesnow.bsky.social, for believing in our story @notapipe.bsky.social, and for being the best coauthor @jeshonard.bsky.social.

Is "all of them" a valid response?

Wish I was still in the East Bay! What a group.

Ok time to see what all this K-Pop Demon Hunter hype is about

And so much less of a sensory overload.
