If you caught a recent presentation I did, you know I like to slip in classic sci-fi references. I've only ever had a battered paperback copy of this book before finding this well-loved first edition today. #Heinlein #BookSky

Sunset on the Patomac... the night before SGIM Annual Meeting.

After reading Noir and Razzmatazz, I've picked up Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler. I blame @theauthorguy.bsky.social

W.H. Auden - BOTD #Caturday

He was a nurse.

According to Goodreads, I read 74 books this year, 14 of which were by Christopher Moore @theauthorguy.bsky.social who I will be quick to point out is my favorite living author.

Had a long delay at LaGuardia last night after my annual meeting with our publisher in NYC, but sometimes a delay comes with a bonus. I got to see the Rev Al Sharpton!!

“None of these books are obscene” A group of best-selling authors, publishers, parents & students sued over a harsh ban in FL, and this week "we pushed back, and we won,” says Angie Thomas. Books “are a gateway” to empathy. “They allow us to step into lives unlike our own" #VelshiBannedBookClub

Emmy appears curious... perhaps curious why she doesn't have a biscuit.

@missybbbobtail.bsky.social can just make my day. Now I have that song in my head, and it's a good thing. 😉

Books are medicine, and if one book isn't the medicine for you, that doesn't mean you burn down the pharmacy. --Sandra Cisneros (paraphrased) on book banning #velshibannedbookclub

I had an amazing time at the ISMTE conference. I have much to think about and consider implementing in my editorial office. #ISMTEna2025 @readwithjosie.bsky.social

@kevinjewett.bsky.social had some great insights at #ISMTEna2025

When in French Canada, I recommend the French toast with chocolate ganache, crunchy pistachios, and mixed berries... #HotelBonaventure #ISMTEconference

My Pacers doing what they can do!

I love this, and I love the McConnells. 😁

Find yourself someone that loves you like T. J. McConnell loves the hustle! #Pacers

Fun fact

In 49 other states it's just basketball.....

Reskeet with a favorite classic Doctor Who villain or monster that isn't the Master, the Daleks, or the Cybermen...

Almost a triple double at the half!

You just know he's going to blow it all on squeaky toys & catnip.

I love this!

I feel this meme.

Watched The Three Doctors after watching the new episode yesterday, and Arc of Infinity is first on my playlist today... refreshers on the history of Omega. #classicWho #DoctorWho

I have created my own watch guide for friends who want to get into Doctor Who. This article has a suggestion, and I think it's a good one. gamerant.com/doctor-who-c...

Next up: a bit of Omega history #classicWho #DoctorWho

If people don’t like you, it’s totally okay. If cats don’t like you, it’s time for some self-reflection. Happy Caturday!

I truly have not been this excited about Pacers basketball since the Reggie Miller days... I am loving this!

Last night, I watched The Mark of the Rani, and tonight I am watching Time and the Rani. #WhoPrep #ClassicWho #DoctorWho

Here's what's up, Pacers fans!

Today, I am wearing a Pacers necktie that belonged to my dad. He loved Indiana basketball.

From @theathletic.bsky.social: Knicks fans have seen it all. They've never seen this, though: a loss so jaw-dropping that it somehow silenced the city that never sleeps.
