"that guy with that website that covers debut writers" www.debutiful.net
You know that "turn a paperclip into owning a house" trade-up guy? I have an idea for a newsletter that uses that concept.

The Debutiful "2026 Debut Books List" is over 150 titles for January-June alone. I left a lot of books off because the book didn't fit Debutiful's coverage interests. I haven't even been pitched all of the Big 5 (4? idk I can't keep track anymore), let alone small and university presses.

The good reads debut shortlist for voting is okay. Lots of ones missing. Lots of ones I personally didn’t enjoy but happy readers connected. A few are in Debutiful’s Best Of list coming out next week.

NEW: Mississippi Democrats broke the Republican Party's supermajority in the state Senate tonight for the first time since 2011. It came as Democrats flipped 2 Senate seats and 1 House seat. “Mississippi just broke the supermajority—and the people have taken back their power,” the party says.

Hello! I wrote this op-ed because I've fielded some awkward requests from devs and PR (who shall remain anonymous) this year and I think it's indicative of a wider issue in the game industry that stems from some folks not fully understanding the role of reporters. THOUGHTS on Game Dev Dot Com:

We believe healthcare is a right for every American. But starting today, millions of people will be notified that they are being priced out of their insurance thanks to Republican policies. Enough is enough. The GOP may shut down the government, but we will stand tall for YOU.

Independent media is the only media we will have that will not be beholden to The State This means it will not have the same reach, influence, or attention as traditional models developed. This will like be both very good and extremely difficult to maintain.

This is the legacy moment for Disney CEO Robert Iger, a man who once toyed with a Presidential run as a Democrat. You stand up for unpopular free speech or you stand against all free speech. There's no middle.
