And welcome to BlueSky @kat-collins-books.bsky.social! Arriving with a bang 😎

I’ll be at BookCon this weekend (both days) and on Sunday I have a signing and a queer horror panel with @haileypiperfights.bsky.social, @ninocipri.bsky.social, @ajwhiteauthor.bsky.social, Jade Song, and @laurarsamotin.bsky.social. Come by and say hi!

My book baby's first blurb! I'm incredibly grateful to #cozymystery author Alex Erickson for taking the time to read and say kind things about GRACE & JO HAVE NEVER SOLVED A MURDER!

If you pre-order this you get not one, not two, but THREE coffins www.amazon.com/Three-Coffin...

POV: The MC in my #cozymystery updates her LinkedIn profile.

Times have changed. The old rules no longer apply. Our foes have grown in strength. We must adapt. Don't worry. I gotchu. With updated tactics and brand-new tips for every monster, REMONSTERED! THE MONSTERS KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING comes out this Oct. 6. Preorder at bookshop.org/a/511/9.... #DnD

Look, it’s an excellent book. My publisher and my mom both say so.

i have the privilege of knowing an above-average number of writers and editors. all of them would spit in their own grandmother's face before they chatgpt-ed their art. my information is anecdotal, but so is the majority of this reporting.

I'm about $40 from THE NOVA INCIDENT earning out its advance, so if people could buy about 50 copies of the ebook—and nobody returns any more paperbacks—I can probably hit that in my next royalty period. (If you're curious, this book came out the week my kid was born. 😅) dmoren.com/writing/gala...

You would get so many more amazing books if you had Universal Basic Income. Not even the most dream-scenario AI could compete with the creativity of a world of authors no longer afraid of affording rent.

I have some fun and exciting news to share! I've signed on with JABberwocky Literary Agency! They'll be repping my new cozy mystery series and I'm really excited to be working with them and agent James Farner specifically!

I'm thrilled to announce that @teribarnett.bsky.social is our newest @awfulagent.bsky.social client! I love the cozy little town she's created, filled with a cast of lovable characters that keeps you coming back for more and more. Throw in a dead body (or two...?), and it doesn't get any better!

If your books are in the Anthropic copyright settlement...don't be this guy. Yes, a crappy gift card is the expectation in many class action settlements, but not this time: per work payout is at least $3,000, & may be higher. If you don't file, you get nothing. Deadline is 3/30. File today.

A HUGE congratulations to JAB client @ajirving.bsky.social — THE BI BOOK is a 2026 Lambda Literary Award finalist in the LGBTQ+ Children's Books category! 🎉💖💜💙 A sweet, loving lesson in language and love, on a subject rarely covered." —Booklist, starred review! awfulagent.com/ebooks/the-b...

Look, I try not to be swayed by petty contests like sales charts, but it's always nice to pop in there in during pre-order week and find myself squeezed between Brandon Sanderson and Sarah J. Maas, no matter how fleeting. (Thanks, preorderers, you're swell.)

In case you missed this morning's announcement: new book! From me! Preorders open now.

It’s bad for motion pictures, and it’s bad for America.

Generally, it seems to me, the left gets excited about technology that actually solves real problems for regular people (mass transit, green energy, vaccines and medicines, etc.) while the right gets excited for technology that funnels money from regular people into the pockets of billionaires.

If my followers have been inspired by the fierce resistance the Twin Cities has put up to ICE, you should make it a point to take a trip here (April through October 😬), enjoy the wonderful things MN has to offer and support our small businesses. It continues to be a really tough time for them.

I'm very excited to be joining the @bklynbooksbooze.bsky.social Author Book Fair this weekend! There's a Pitch an Agent event I'll be participating in, and I'm told there's still room for me to take some more pitches. So if you have a mystery pitch ready to go, consider dropping by this Saturday!

The Washington Post is getting rid of its Books section. We’re losing the institutions—journalism, middle-class artistic and intellectual culture—that once made life bearable. Those things were a threat to the super-rich who increasingly govern us. Democracy dies in illiteracy.

The cover for GRACE & JO HAVE NEVER SOLVED A MURDER is now out for the world to see!! Want to experience the humor and hijinks hiding behind this cover? Pre-order it today to enjoy it this fall!

We at the Asylum are excited to host the cover reveal for @jessmeywrites.bsky.social's upcoming debut mystery novel, GRACE & JO HAVE NEVER SOLVED A MURDER! The expected publication is October 13, 2026, by @daturabooks.bsky.social. queensbookasylum.com/2026/02/04/c... #CoverReveal #ComingSoon

If Bezos had cared about the Washington Post’s mission, he could have just funded it at a loss. There’s no reason he had to make a profit off it. He could lose money all year every year and still have more than enough to last him for his entire life and more. Instead he gutted it.

Our billionaire overlords don't want you reading. Period. Hard stop. Books are good. Keep reading books.

Great to see ESPERANCE on the @locusmag.bsky.social 2025 Recommended Reading List locusmag.com/2026/02/2025... @awfulagent.bsky.social Published in the UK by @arcadiabooks.bsky.social

Such a good time tonight listening to @emilynussbaum.bsky.social talk with @stephenfishbach.bsky.social about his novel, ESCAPE! Best of all, I got to meet Stephen, babble incoherently in my excitement, and leave with a very special message in my book 🐟
