10p '23 YEAR IN REVIEW, pt. 1🖤☠️
We popped off w/perhaps our most audacious & hubristic move: declaring ourselves the New Arbiters of Good Taste™️ & launching the Brave New Weird Awards.
Anyone who grumbled did so quietly; otherwise it went over so well that Vol. 2 is coming soon!

An image by @midearthling.bsky.social of the four hobbits from J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings around a table preparing for dinner: from left to right, Frodo, Sam, Merry, and Pippin. Frodo is holding a pot of steaming soup. Sam, decked out in a hobbit apron, is setting four bowls on the table. Merry is smoking a pipe and laughing. Pippin is playing a lute and singing to entertain his friends.

Are you a fan of The Lord of the Rings? Do you identify as nonreligious? Would you be interested in talking to me for 1-2 hours about why you love Tolkien?

If you answered 'yes' I would love it if you filled out this questionnaire for my PhD research!

Anyway, if you have a podcast or blog (etc!) that you are looking for a RANDOM LARGE BUG to be on, I have two VERY DIFFERENT books coming out in Feb/March 2024 and would love to talk about them with you! :) (And you would get review e-copies!)

Can absolutely attest! I loved our conversation about folk horror and realized fears and dreams and playing with ideas and how good it feels to talk about bookie things, and ALL your cool books coming out next year!
