GUYS LOOK AT MY NEW NAILS! They are not SGJ themed, but we can pretend they’re for killer on the road, maybe? If you want?

This is fun.

The most classic of all Pisces pastimes, making sad playlists

You Dreamed of Empires was the VERY FIRST bookmail I got when we moved to Colorado 2+ years ago, and it was one of my faves for 2024. Now I Surrender joins it at the top, and will definitely be a 2026 favorite. Thank you @riverheadbooks.bsky.social 🫶 Review: www.instagram.com/p/DVv61qjgPx...

Hiiiiiiigh high hopes for my next two reads! Some of my most anticipated for the year.

There seem to be a slew of signed @sgj.bsky.social books going up on eBay for 4X retail price or more—I just want everyone to know that you don’t ever need to pay more than retail for a signed book from Stephen. You can order personalized copies here, in fact: boulderbookstore.net/signed-steph...

Well, the dogs and I stumbled across a squirrel that had been hit by a car and couldn’t use his back legs. So when we got home I drove back with…um…the tool I guess isn’t important, but a way to end his suffering. But he’s gone 🥲

lol once again, I am the only person in my 11-person family that’s interested in trail riding on vacation. So I’ll be loping up to the Maui volcano solo, their loss 🤷‍♀️

Forgot to share with y’all my @victorlavalle.bsky.social mini reviews from earlier this week on insta! Plus I’m obsessed with these covers 🤩 I’m basically already out of text here so check them out at: www.instagram.com/p/DVYzbkMAOa...

Did you know that horses most likely originally disappeared from the Americas because we ATE THEM?! Hate that.

My therapist: “I randomly came across a podcast the other day with @sgj.bsky.social in it and was like, ‘OH I KNOW HIM! Well, by proxy.’” 🤣

May everyone be even HALF as blessed in their friendships as I am in @annarosereads.bsky.social

It’s astonishing how much I sound like Steve Perry in the shower

13 slashers on the page, by me:

A super fun night with @sgj.bsky.social and @thebrianasman.bsky.social in San Diego! Got to hang with some of my favorite people, which is always the whole point, right?

I’m late-posting this because I just got off another plane, but! Super fun night in San Jose with @sgj.bsky.social and Adam Johnson; think the whole crowd got an ab workout from all the laughing.

Happy Against the Wind day, to those who celebrate. Feb 25, 1980. I feel like @tvayyyy.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=2vRs...

@sgj.bsky.social thought you would enjoy this, for some reason: www.threads.com/@caseyhwilki...

It’s my birthday! 38. What better way to spend it than in sunny California with @sgj.bsky.social and Adam Johnson tonight?

Oh wow, I hate this 😂 BUT!!! New set of SGJ-themed nails on deck for tomorrow…I’ve got a new artist…

My favorite animal is my grandfather, who when diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and told he’d be mid-to-late stage by age 94, said, “well yeah, 94 is OLD old.”

Oh—this. THIS is my new favorite personal anthem. “You call it shame, I call it style l've been burning for a while” open.spotify.com/track/4DbnLT...

Luke literally only takes photos when we’re playing pool lol—related, 9ft tables are biiiiig

There is a huuuuuge push at my company to use AI and it is making me very stressed and uncomfortable

We went to Scottsdale, AZ for about 36 hours, ‘twas fun.

Me talking to publicists about the things we do for authors

My mailman Chad knocked on our door today to tell me that tomorrow is his last day on our route, and I don’t think he was expecting me to cry 😂😭

💖WELCOME TO THE BISHBRARY💖 Featuring, my new @sgj.bsky.social shelves (they’ve got glass doors!) Three weeks of blood (literally), sweat, and surprisingly few tears. I’ll add some before photos in thread!

Squeeeee look who’s here early 👀 @sgj.bsky.social Plus a sneak peek of the new shelves!

LIBRARY RENO REVEAL ON MONDAY!!! Hopefully I can get everything put back in there by then 😅

Yourself, as a cartoon.

People held at the Fort Bliss immigration detention camp in Texas report guards have crushed their testicles, beaten them, broken their teeth, and more. We're demanding an end to this inhumane treatment and to immigration detention at Fort Bliss for good.

Bet y’all can guess what’s going under glass?

Gym bro just watched me deadlift 225x3 and still came over to “help me” get the plates off after my sets. Don’t do this, this seems polite and helpful, but it feels belittling. Especially if the lifter is not struggling.

I would congratulate @sgj.bsky.social on Good Stab’s spot on the Stoker preliminary ballot, but we all knew he was gonna be there, right?

Getting closer…

I’m wiped but here’s an update for the new library 👀

New flash story:

This was time consuming but we sure saved a pretty penny

I’ve been using this library remodel as an excuse to call my dad like every other day about the smallest things 😂

Can you REALLY say you have a favorite @sgj.bsky.social story if you haven’t read them all? Here, let me help you pick a backlist beauty… Full post: www.instagram.com/p/DTvKX72AHi...

FINALLY hit my goal of deadlifting 2x my body weight. 124.2lbs this morning, 150lbs on the bar. Listening to Gerry Rafferty.
