This one hurts. Most of my short story success over the past few years is due to this publisher. They leave a great legacy of crime fiction and it sucks that they can't continue.

"A specific crime against her by someone who knew her" is a pretty simplistic reading of the Horton case. The guy who was arrested had a list of 45 potential targets including Dem lawmakers, abortion providers and pro-choice activists. He researched targets and surveilled homes., authorities said

Hi Katie: I very much appreciated your feedback on my manuscript after we spoke at the Chesapeake Writer's Conference. It was on point. I couldn't reply to the email, but I wanted to pass along my thanks. I will submit a revised manuscript soonest.

You’re on a roll

Appreciate it. And back at you brother

I'm up to 45 queries on what I hope will be my second novel. About 8-9 rejections and some nibbles. Sending out another query today. Life goes on.

The adults have entered the chat.

Thanks to @markatley.bsky.social for this great Q&A. While you’re at it, check out his fiction and learn about the Tulsa underworld.

What a gem. Ana Sophia Heger is mesmerizing as Polly. Same for Taron Egerton. I didn't recognize John Carroll Lynch after his turn in "Ballard." Saw this at 10 a.m. on a Tuesday when no one else bothered to be in the theater. Their loss. The book ain't bad, either. @jordanharper.bsky.social

Hey, ya'll. My novel is nearing its second birthday, and I'd love to get a few more reviews on Amazon. If you've read the book and haven't bothered to drop a review, now's the time. Gus will thank you from the bottom of his grumpy heart. (Also, the hardcover is half priced at the moment.)

Thanks, Gabino! Sometimes you just can't get rid of a body. Check out my story "Bad Man Down" here: bit.ly/44y6iNA

This is a good one.

This.

This looks great!

It sounds like he's referring to undocumented immigrants, who are generally not eligible for most federal public benefits, including programs like SNAP (food stamps), Medicaid, and TANF. It takes 30 seconds to Google this.

The fire alarm goes off in the theater about 45 minutes in, complete with strobe lights, and I will never be the same. We shuffled back inside after the all clear, but we were lesser people. Great film though.

Friends, if you haven't read my book, now's a good time. It's currently $1.99 on Kindle and $7.49 for the audiobook.

This. All the time.

Can't make this, but it looks like a good one. Get there if you can.
