Zach and I, sitting in two chairs in a bookstore. Zach is wearing an orange graphic t and yellow long sleeve over it, with jeans and sneakers. He is holding a mic. I am wearing a brown sweater and jeans, also holding a mic, mid-question.
The cover of Zach Powers’ novel The Migraine Diaries. A dark blue-gray background with a brain made up of a thousand small objects related to regular life.
Got to celebrate a wonderful book from wonderful @zachpowers.bsky.social last night!
Read this book, friends! And give my bud all his 🌸🌺🌼!
Four improbably good-looking authors, one wearing a Strunk & White crown of ill-deserved triumph, and one wearing a PULPED sign of ignominy
A roomful of people holding up signs with the author's face, with stars in his eyes like nipples on instagram

For about a year now I've been fantasizing about an entirely new kind of literary event: exciting, theatrical, and a little bit combative. Yesterday at the @barrelhouse.bsky.social conference, @writesloud.bsky.social, @poeticmoni.bsky.social, and @zachpowers.bsky.social and I pulled it off.
Tomorrow @writesloud.bsky.social, @zachpowers.bsky.social, and @poeticmoni.bsky.social and I are trying something new at this conference: a "panel" entirely driven by audience questions, on-stage arguments, props, and a scoreboard. It's going to get rowdy. You want to be there.
We're 4 days out from the @barrelhouse.bsky.social DC conference on Saturday and we still have some spots left if you'd like to join us for a fun day talking craft & publishing & literary community. We're all in this together. Hope to see all you good weirdos there! www.barrelhousemag.com/conference

Jonquils are pushing up thru the leaves, the weather is warming (between snowstorms & tornadoes), & birds are singing--so it must be time for @wirobooks.bsky.social's spring preview! We've got large, small, & university presses on our list.

Snakes that are hands.
Post a comics cover that you love!

Saw you walk by our table!
a heap of about 100 books on a reddish couch with a blue blanket (from Ireland!) over the back. You can just see Kirby the cat’s head in the corner.
How many craft books went into writing my own, THE UNRULY WRITER? At least this many. And now my book is in the process of finding a home, so stay tuned!
Bonus: tiny cat head.
Only gift is to please give them back their egg.
The best part of the season!
Going in a couple weeks!
I got some coffee to "only have a little" and actually managed to not drink the whole thing. Today I am an adult.
Same! In my pal’s Dodge Dart with overpowered after-market tweeters.
