To the man leaving the @columbuslibrary.bsky.social #hilltop branch just now who saw me walking in and shouted, “Hey, you look like Stephen King! I mean that as a compliment!” … Compliment accepted. (With perfect timing, I had just checked out King’s latest novel, “Never Flinch,” on Wednesday.)

I recently tried a new author. The Mailman by @awhcolumbus.bsky.social It's the first book about Mercury Carter and it bodes well for the future. www.goodreads.com/review/show/...

"This exciting thriller had me turning the pages, desperate to see what would happen . . . Action-packed and clever, this is a nimble mystery for the 21st century, with an unforgettable hero who’s my newest favorite fictional character." www.criminalelement.com/book-review-...

“Do you read while you write?” That is, do you stop reading as you craft a work in progress to avoid unconsciously adopting the voice of other writers? @awhcolumbus.bsky.social weighs in on this age-old question for Strand Magazine: www.mysterycenter.com/2025/04/18/r... #booksky #writingcommunity
