@stephenfishbach.bsky.social 's "Escape" is this winter's best-seller. It even has readers as far as Japan! #books

I'm over the moon that I got to write this week's @wsj.com 5 Best column, on Extraordinary Ordeals. I loved getting to feature some of my favorite novels, but then to also receive my own hedcut was the achievement of a life goal. www.wsj.com/arts-culture...

listened to this audiobook and it was great! also loved the fact that the voice actor changed as the narrator did since it’s a multi-perspective book

I’m so excited that Apple Books chose Escape! as a February #MustListen. Check out the audiobook here: apple.co/mustlistens

well I got a bonus at work and instead of waiting for a library copy I went into the wild - so excited to read this @stephenfishbach.bsky.social. Currency to @taranarmstrong.bsky.social are in my book bag for work😹

The commander in chief telling troops who they have to vote for is itself a presidency ending impeachable scandal.

I couldn’t put this down, @stephenfishbach.bsky.social ! Loved all the twists and peeks behind the camera. Made me even more excited for #Survivor50

The Escape! audiobook has won an Earphones Award along with this rave from Kirkus. Thank you so much to the incredible cast -- Julia Whelan, Sean Patrick Hopkins, and Imani Jade Powers -- for bringing this book to aural life.

Can’t wait to get back into #Escape! By @stephenfishbach.bsky.social on this flight. Knocked out the first 10 chapters at home and was hooked! The storytelling is excellent and I can’t wait to enjoy the hell out of this while on vacation with the family.

RFK Jr. is now blocking an updated flu vaccine for NO reason grounded in science. American vaccine policy has been hijacked by a conspiracy theorist—yet most Republicans are happy to just sit on their hands. They are allowing FDA policy to be dictated by DELUSION.

Feeling some emotions after reading Escape! Such a great story with some meaningful choices about the narratives we force upon ourselves and others. Thanks for sharing your novel with all of us @stephenfishbach.bsky.social

I love reality tv. Love watching, learning from, and reading about it @stephenfishbach.bsky.social nailed it. Escape! feels like watching Survivor: All Stars & UnREAL at once Enough easter eggs to make you smile w/o taking you out of the story. A triumph of the fictional reality tv genre #booksky

I guess when you’ve done what you were hired to do, there’s no reason to hang around.

The two-time 'Survivor' player-turned-author @stephenfishbach.bsky.social uses the mechanics of reality TV to examine how and why people construct versions of themselves. Read @goforgrace.bsky.social's chat now:

love this fantastic interview from the @washingtonian! Thank you so much Tristan Espinoza for the phenomenal questions. washingtonian.com/2026/02/04/s...

I read the first 3/4 of this book in one sitting and only stopped because it was literally 5 am and I could not keep my eyes open. Incredible book!

I spoke to @stephenfishbach.bsky.social about his debut novel, Escape! popheist.com/survivor-ste...

@stephenfishbach.bsky.social I just finished this. You absolutely crushed it. I need to know what’s next for Beck!

ESCAPE! is officially an instant national bestseller!! Holy sh@@! I cannot believe it. From on, I am signing all my emails as Bestselling Novelist Stephen Fishbach. Thank you, thank you, thank you to the RHAP community and all the readers who supported me. This is truly a dream come true.

The guy who owns Amazon shutting down the books section of the Washington Post is beyond parody

this is so bleak www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/...

Being a One Story Debutante was one of the milestone goals for me, I cannot believe it's finally here!! Tickets on sale in Feb, Event on April 24!

NEW ESCAPE! BOOK TOUR DATES, including Maryland, Chicago (Winnetka), and Denver!

current book! congrats, @stephenfishbach.bsky.social.

Is this real life? Never in a billion years did I imagine that the Atlantic would review Escape!, let alone so generously and penetratingly. www.theatlantic.com/books/2026/0...

Just one more thing the miserable idiot took over, slapped his name on, and drove out of business in record time.

as 1. someone who works in TV production and 2. a living person who can read, i can't recommend the new @stephenfishbach.bsky.social novel enough to everyone. what an awesome way to look at the human condition

"on a craft level, it's incredible on a reality-tv-fan-level, even more so" - I WANT IT ON THE JACKET, THANK YOU JESSICA.

Cool to see Escape! by @stephenfishbach.bsky.social prominently displayed at the book stand inside LaGuardia today

I'm absolutely dazzled and overwhelmed to be #3 on this week's EW Must List - right below Bridgerton and Wonder Man! Thank you so much @DaltonRoss for your constant support and kindness, this justifies any number of weeping memes!

If you're obsessed with reality TV and want to know why--or if you want to know why everyone else is obsessed with it--read @stephenfishbach.bsky.social's debut novel #Escape! I had a blast reading & reviewing for the @lareviewofbooks.bsky.social

We had @stephenfishbach.bsky.social on the podcast to talk about his book ESCAPE!, #Survivor, and why @robcesternino.bsky.social's podcast community is the BEST. Apple: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/e... Spotify: open.spotify.com/episode/35dj... @duttonbooks.bsky.social

@stephenfishbach.bsky.social on writing a novel (and taking inspiration from his time on Survivor).

I was thrilled to find my copy of Escape waiting for me at home. If reality TV and engaging storytelling are your interests, I recommend reading @stephenfishbach.bsky.social book.

Happy Book Birthday, @stephenfishbach.bsky.social. ESCAPE! is out in the wild today. 2 tours to the Island & 15 years in the making, ESCAPE! is a spot-on look at reality TV production, Survival shows & society at large. Witty, informative, scathing & a compulsive ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ read. #BookSky #HBD #ReadSky

This felt like a fitting location to start reading @stephenfishbach.bsky.social debut novel on release day all the way from the heat of an Australian summer. #rhap #survivor #escape

@stephenfishbach.bsky.social Can't believe I'm about to read the debut novel by the man who so brilliantly played Ebenezer Scrooge on RHAP D&D: Murder On The Holiday Express.

To celebrate the launch of Escape!, I just posted ANOTHER episode of Survivors Play BOTC Check out the trailer, and join us in the Escape Discord!

If you are in the DC area, come watch me harass @stephenfishbach.bsky.social in public tonight!

I'll be doing a Q&A in 23 minutes with @realityblurred, please join! us06web.zoom.us/j/8114005378...

@stephenfishbach.bsky.social @robhasapodcast.bsky.social Monday is my LEAST favorite day of the week. Unless I come home from work & find #ESCAPE! waiting for me via #BooksAMillion! 😍 My signed copy may be delayed due to weather up north, but no worries here in #MiddleGA, I'm still in business.

Before his debut novel "Escape!" arrives tomorrow, I spoke with @stephenfishbach.bsky.social about how #Survivor severe gastrointestinal distress kicked off his 10-year journey of writing a reality TV story. And how many people (including myself!) inspired the tale: parade.com/tv/survivor-...

It’s hard to overstate how freakish it is for law enforcement who just shot someone to be shuffled off to other assignments with no investigative period at all.

New video shows the man who was killed moments before the shooting. He was peacefully standing in the street observing before ICE agents started pushing him for no reason.

Having been there for 49 Seasons live, lots of rebinges, and "knowing" Fishbach since 2009, ESCAPE! is spot on & a treat for any fan of the show. One hell of a novel. And then some.

I couldn't have asked for a better piece than this from @russellfalcon.bsky.social, on Escape!, how it relates to my TV experience, and so much more. ktla.com/entertainmen...

ESCAPE! vibes are immaculate. As a writer, I live for strategy, twists, and a sprint to the last page.
