Come celebrate Marlon James with me today at the Brooklyn Book Festival @bkbookfest.bsky.social! 1pm! Free!

Out tomorrow C. Mallon's knockout of a debut Dogs! Check out my quote in the August Indie Next flyer and read @isaacfitzgerald.bsky.social's excellent rave for Dogs in The NYT! Dogs is available at your local independent bookstore/neighborhood library.

C. Mallon’s debut novel absolutely rocked me, so it was a thrill to review it for @nytimes.com‬. Tremendous thanks to MJ Franklin for the assignment, along with his sharp, thoughtful edits. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/08/10/b...

This is just an @isaacfitzgerald.bsky.social appreciation post. Isaac, you're the best.

This article from @isaacfitzgerald.bsky.social is very New England, in the sense that my brother’s friends and my sweetheart’s coworkers have experienced a version of this.

If you're looking for a cozy Sunday read I went looking for a flat cap at the the world's oldest hat shop, Lock & Co. Hatters. www.gq.com/story/newsbo...

I wrote about finding the perfect flat cap and grappling with personal style for @gqmagazine.bsky.social. With tremendous thanks to Yang Yi-Goh for his thoughtful, in-depth edits. Here’s the piece: www.gq.com/story/newsbo...

Delightful read for a hat I like that my grandad often wore by one of my favs @isaacfitzgerald.bsky.social

Ah!! Stoked to read this, by @isaacfitzgerald.bsky.social Relevant to my interests...

Hat-guy solidarity @isaacfitzgerald.bsky.social

ahhhh @patrick-hoffman.bsky.social's FRIENDS HELPING FRIENDS on TODAY SHOW!!! Thanks to @isaacfitzgerald.bsky.social <3 www.today.com/popculture/b...

FRIENDS HELPING FRIENDS is "an atmospheric comedy of errors that shows how those that live on the margins of society are often forced into bad decisions and even worse situations" according to @isaacfitzgerald.bsky.social on the TODAY Show!!! 🥳 www.today.com/video/what-t...

Come have some fun, NOLA! 💜⚜️

A reminder that this magic is happening on Saturday in New Orleans. Come see @kristenarnett.bsky.social & @isaacfitzgerald.bsky.social talk books & life & clowns & how to be a dirtbag and more!

7pm and there’s still light in the sky. 🙏🏻

Listened to two memoirs this week, both exceptional even though they are quite different from one another. @scaachi.bsky.social and @isaacfitzgerald.bsky.social narrated their own audiobooks which, honestly, adds infinitely to the experience.

This is gonna be a *very* good time. Come party, NOLA! 💜⚜️

Coming up on Saturday March 22 in the Bywater, New Orleans, I am hosting two of my favorite humans/writers to launch the funniest book of the year @kristenarnett.bsky.social @isaacfitzgerald.bsky.social

London. I’m here, and I’m on a mission.

Tried to google the word count of On the Road.

When @awestenfeld.bsky.social told me that she was launching an editorial services firm, I was happy to write a testimonial. 📝🏆

Some personal news: I’m launching my own editorial services firm! I’ve spent my entire career empowering writers to do their best work, and now, I’m thrilled to continue that mission as an independent editor and business owner. (🧵1/4) adriennewestenfeld.com/services

My Philadelphia Wife™️ is making me watch the most unhinged shit right now.

In closing. 🦅💚

The Chiefs dynasty and all it stands for getting dramatically shot out of the sky wouldn’t heal America at this point, but it’s certainly a fucking start!

Show us ur bolts!

Every Super Bowl commercial thus far has been about American unity or AI.

Sorta love that the NFL robot mascot is throwing out Mardi Gras beads, thus implying that there are other robots out there lifting their tops.

Happy birthday @isaacfitzgerald.bsky.social! Much love to you on this solar return!

This is factual.

Happy birthday to @isaacfitzgerald.bsky.social. Fun fact: Pierce Brosnan’s look and vibe in the 2020 film “Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga” was based on Isaac…probably.

42.

It’s my best friend’s birthday! Happy birthday, @isaacfitzgerald.bsky.social! We love you, honey.

THERE’S MORE! I’m an artist-in-residence at Harvard Medical School as part of the Media, Medicine and Health Program. As part of my residency this year, I’m hosting a series of conversations this semester with @roxanegay.bsky.social , @isaacfitzgerald.bsky.social and @smashfizzle.bsky.social. 🦃

OKAY, I’m back. GOOD NEWS! On 2/11 at 4pm EST my dear friend @roxanegay.bsky.social is coming to visit me here at Harvard! We’re going to read some new work and have a conversation AND YOU CAN JOIN VIA ZOOM!!!! harvard.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

One time I traveled to Canada and used my birth certificate as identification. You... cannot do that anymore.

Jami recently reminded me that I used to get on flights with an expired passport and loose mail I brought from home to prove I was who I said I was. (Yes, it worked—and there’s even a page about it on the TSA website.)

At least 17 of these are mine.

I missed this earlier, but @isaacfitzgerald.bsky.social on the Today Show's "Open Book" podcast named BAND PEOPLE a "Best Book of 2024" (around 31:00): "beautiful, reverent—there's so much love for [musicians], while at the same time being so practical." podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/b...

It’s nice to see the classics still in circulation.
