@sgj.bsky.social If you’re not already aware of it I recommend checking out @onalarkin.bsky.social’s forthcoming’The Unheld.’ I think it will resonate (and for anyone who likes your work). Really soulful and weird. Was lucky to get an @netgalley.bsky.social ARC.
I got there one time to watch a friend’s band but it was in 1988 and well on the wane even then. It was a real kip though and the toilets were even worse. 😁
Is it too meta to hope someone options if for a TV series? It’d be superb.
I’ve read it (thanks @netgalley.bsky.social) and I can confirm that is in indeed really good.
@manylittlewords.bsky.social yesterday morning’s new book delivery FB post from E Shaver, our very fine bookshop in Savannah, Georgia.

@manylittlewords.bsky.social I noticed 'Itch' has just been added to NetGalley in the US: www.netgalley.com/catalog/book...
Mine's always been Jim Rockford's gold Pontiac Firebird. As a child growing up in rural Ireland that was as exotic as they came. 💛
Grease - You’re the one that I want.
@manylittlewords.bsky.social Dis U? 🧐
I got it when it came out but have been saving it until after your very final book. It's like my @stephenking.bsky.social nuclear bunker for that dreaded time when you stop (one way or t'other ... 😬) publishing. I know I'll have that one left ...
Congratulations - entirely deserved.
It really is astonishing.
‘Zoonotic’ in that title must be inspirational for you, no? Brings to mind zoo animals that can hypnotize people. Think of the fun you’d have with that. 😵💫🐘🐅🦒
Great to see Zahn McLarnon in the ascendancy. The range he’s shown across Fargo, Longmire, Reservation Dogs, and Dark Winds over the past 15 years or so is impressive. Love anything he’s in.
Designer’s dilemma - on which side to put the barcode. 😱
Three heels present in that scenario. 🤬
Nice!
Seeing all of those covers in one place reinforces this NYT article about a current design trend - "Take a genteel painting, maybe featuring a swooning woman. Add iridescent neon type for a shock to the system."

Looks like something's emerging through your couch from the pits of hell. 😄 😈
Thoroughly deserved. 💚
This is just one of the thoughts I shared in my review of ‘The El’ on NetGalley - ‘I've never been to Chicago and wasn't in America in 1979 but Van Alst describes everyone and everywhere so eloquently and evocatively I can place myself there with no effort.’
Dying to hear this. 👏
This was spaghetti in 1970s Ireland.
Still have my PB Cosmos bought on August 21, 1983.
No Matsui? 😀
It had ‘Halloween’ graphics on the hood as well. Pretty cool.
One for you @sgj.bsky.social - Savannah, GA this afternoon.
@markhamillofficial.bsky.social as The Man in Black/Marten Broadcloak/Walter O’Dim/Randall Flagg/Richard Fannin/The Covenant Man in Mike Flanagan’s The Dark Tower series. Has to happen.
I suspect she has no idea that a 'theocrat' is.
Terrific so far in its own right (and the fun is just getting started) but so far in his ‘King Sorrow’ @joe-hill.bsky.social has already referenced his father’s ‘The Dead Zone’ and paraphrased the legendary ‘The Gunslinger’ opening line. 👏 💚 🐲
