You can count on this prestigious literary magazine to speak truth to power.

A view of Rochester, obscured slightly by the smoke. I remember a time when this wasn’t normal, but now it’s every year. I am not a fan. #rochmn

SFWA’s Emerging Tech committee is fantastic and i do believe this will be worth a visit.

Is anyone else this happy that it’s finally cool enough out to go for a walk?

Picked up some books at the local author book fair at Garden Party Books here in Rochester, MN today. gardenpartybooks.com/

Quick reminder that this weekend you can read my interactive novel Wizard Confidential on Apple, Android, or PC. Prohibition-era Seattle noir with magic, guns, and a whole lot of wit.

I am SO happy to announce the table of contents for [RECORDED]: An Anthology of Found Media Stories, coming to haunt you on October 13th, 2026! 🎥 📚💙 www.backerkit.com/c/projects/m...

This cat wandered around the corner the other day. After spending time in my dog’s mouth, he… was just kinda chill about it. And he’s fine. Not really intimidated at all. Anyway, I’m looking for good metaphors for Minnesota this year so let me know if you think of one.

Back home after ConVergence. Highlights were readings by @joanmarieverba.bsky.social and @naomikritzer.bsky.social Great seeing all of you that I saw. Sorry to miss those I didn’t. Such a wonderful con. #cvg2026

Lies Authors Tell. I don't know if ConVergence is trying to say something with my panels this year, but if you're at the con you should come see me at 11:00 today. #convergence #CVG2026 www.convergence-con....

Watching it all burn. #4thofjuly

Evening approaches and we are feeling a little stressed about this whole fireworks thing.

Happy 4th of July for those who celebrate. May all your explosions result in an appropriately low number of injuries. #4thofjuly

Today at ConVergence, at 5:00, you can find me on a panel called, "Importance of Writing Badly" and yes you can assume that I deserve to be there. It's going to be great. www.convergence-con....

I suspect some people unsubscribe from my newsletter because of politics and I get that others are just not into my book recs or meandering essays about the weather, but this week I got, "I do not wish to receive any emails that have pictures of live cats." The picture:

BIG NEWS: We just announced the schedule for 21 town hall meetings! This summer, we'll be holding an in-person town hall meeting in every county across MN-01, because you deserve a representative who will show up, listen, and work to solve problems.

I’m honored to have @petebuttigieg.bsky.social's endorsement in our campaign to solve problems for southern Minnesota. I’m ready to fight for working families to create a government that works for everyone, not just the wealthy.

New Patreon post just dropped. What am I up to? Lots of stuff. What's next? Haha I have no idea. Oh and there's a picture of my dog. www.patreon.com/posts/update...

BIG NEWS: Today, we submitted over 5,000 signatures and officially filed to get on the ballot! Most politicians just pay a filing fee to get on the ballot. But to me, and to a lot of folks across southern Minnesota, $300 is a lot of money. So we chose the grassroots path instead:

Gas prices are skyrocketing. Our farmers and families are paying more every day. Our service members are in harm’s way. All because of this Iran War. Today, Brad Finstad was the deciding vote to keep it going. If I was in Congress, I'd vote to end this war.

Release day! Seattle, 1927. You’re a private eye in a city drenched in secrets. Crime isn’t the only thing lurking in Seattle’s misty streets: there are werewolves, vampires, and wizards. The wise citizen avoids the dark. But not you. anthonyeichenlaub.com/wizard-confi...

Josh from @cardsagainsthumanity.com and I teamed up with 4 awesome artists (@theoatmeal.bsky.social , @boxbrown.bsky.social , @shing.bsky.social , and one anonymous artist) to make anti-ICE urinal stickers you can pee on. Get yours for free at PeeToMeltICE.com bsky.app/profile/peet...

Hey Wizard Confidential can be added to your wishlist on Steam. Magic and mystery in a Prohibition-era Seattle drenched in secrets. store.steampowered.com/app/4245140/...

I made another trip to CD1 yesterday to join folks at their convention! Folks are ready to flip CD1 blue - and elect leaders that will fight tooth and nail for working families. Shout out to our next Congressman, Jake Johnson!

BIG NEWS: Our campaign was just endorsed by the DFL! Not only are DFLers united behind our campaign to solve problems and lower costs, but more Republicans and Independents were a part of the DFL endorsement process in MN-01 than any of the other 7 districts in MN.

Congratulations to @jakejohnsonmn.bsky.social and all the DFLers working to turn southern Minnesota blue this November! CD1 deserves better than Brad Finstad, and now they've got a fantastic champion in Jake.

BIG NEWS: Our campaign raised $130K more than Rep. Brad Finstad this past quarter, and we did it without taking a dime from corporations. I'm so proud of the grassroots campaign we're building that's funded by real people right here in our communities.

Great article on the front page of yesterday’s Star Tribune about our campaign in southern Minnesota. The momentum behind our race is growing every day! www.startribune.com/after-years-...

We've raised over $1 million without taking a penny from corporations, and I'm grateful for everyone who has put their trust in our campaign:

Hey there. Latest story, now out, "Scion." Strangeness. Estrangement. And the history that gets lost in between. A son and father in a moving house. Deranged relatives at cross-purposes. A community fleeing a murderous intruder. A crumbling lunar colony in revolt. Hope folks enjoy. Twisty one.

Totally makes my day when one of my favorite authors puts a story of mine on s list.

GUIDE FOR FICTION-LOVERS READING POETRY FOR THE FIRST TIME: So you've only read fiction your whole life, and now people are yelling at you to nominate poems. How the hell do you figure out what's a good poem? Let a guy with three degrees in fiction + poetry + publishing tell you.

Nebula Ballots are due Sunday, March 1st. This is the the first year for the poetry and comics categories. If you have not submitted already, here is the link: www.sfwa.org/2025-nebula-.... #SFWA #Nebulas #ScienceFiction #Fantasy #NominationSeason

SFWA's funding drive is closing down and the amazing Veronica Roth has pledged a 3x match. SFWA's doing some incredible advocacy for writers in this crazy industry, and 3x is good math. Do with that what you will. www.sfwa.org/winter-world...

Imagine being a congressman from Minnesota and caring so little about what’s happening here that you just copy and paste talking points. If you’re not writing your own statements and you’re not holding town halls, what exactly are we paying you for?

Federal immigration agents shot and killed ANOTHER citizen here in Minnesota today. This poorly-trained, well-funded militia needs to get off of our streets NOW.

Now for some sports news... (this week's cartoon for @theguardian.com books pages)

SFWA has named @nkjemisin.bsky.social the 42nd recipient of the Damon Knight Memorial Grand Master Award. Our congratulations! To celebrate, we’re offering a limited quantity of the signed, limited edition of The City We Became at 30% off for a very short time! subterraneanpress.com/jemisin_tcwb/
