If you've read a book, written a book, promoted a book, published a book, care about literacy, want future generations to read books, PLEASE let @apnews.com know what a HUGE MISTAKE and terrible disservice it is to discontinue their book reviews. Bring them back! www.ap.org/contact-us/?...

It was fun to talk books and publicity with Mandy Jackson-Beverly on The Bookshop podcast: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/m...

My affirmation for the day.

Wealth. Power. Blood ties. @almakatsu.bsky.social's FIEND is a razor-edged horror about a cursed family dynasty and the ancient force pulling their strings. Learn more about it on #NightTideMag before it hits the shelves in September! nighttidemag.com/2025/05/22/s...

This is horrific on so many levels. Shame on you, Chicago Sun-Times. As others have so rightly said, there are countless smart and well-read humans who would have created a robust list of REAL and worthy books for free.

It's INDEPENDENT BOOKSHOP DAY! Would you like a signed, PERSONALIZED copy of You are the Detective? You can pre-order one from the OLDEST MYSTERY BOOKSHOP IN THE UNITED STATES! And we will personalize the hell out of it. Jay draws. I write long notes. www.mysteriousbookshop.com/products/mau...

The Puzzle Box by @danielletrussoni.bsky.social won the LA Times Book Prize for Best Mystery/Thriller!

In these weird and terrible times, it feels strange to announce things, but I made something I think will bring JOY! Do YOU want to solve a mystery? What if someone handed you the file with a sealed solution in the back... www.usatoday.com/story/entert...

It was such a fun day!

“Bless your heart” can mean a lot of things in the South. For author Leigh Dunlap, it just might mean murder. The Nerd Daily has the first look at her debut thriller, BLESS YOUR HEART, out 8/12/25 from @crookedlanebooks.bsky.social thenerddaily.com/exclusive-co...

I’m with you!

I ❤️ Vermont.

There's nothing scarier than a small town with big and deadly secrets! @emilycarpenter.bsky.social l tackles the buried truth of the idyllic and terrifying Juliana, Georgia. nighttidemag.com/2025/02/28/s... #booksky 👻📽️

Posting a pic of Dodger because I needed a cute cat pic today; maybe you do too.

A big loss to the book community.

So fun to watch Younger again. It gets so much of the book publishing biz wrong, but some rings true. Cracking up over this quote from Lauren: “Promoting books at a time when people can just as easily join an Oculus orgy feels a bit like magic, but I’m a witch…”

I liked the Yankees’ clean shaven policy; sorry to see it go.

Some happy news: Chocolat author Joanne Harris returns to France with VIANNE, a prequel publishing this September! And People.com offers the first taste: people.com/read-an-exce...

Happy news amid the horror and chaos. Congrats to all the noms and especially to @maureenjohnsonbooks.com for Death at Morning House!

Here we go again. Hughes fire growing, wind howling. Please be safe everyone.

MWA is donating two tickets to this year's Edgar Awards banquet. Proceeds go to the American Red Cross on behalf of Authors for LA: Here is the direct link but there are lot of great items to also bid on. givebutter.com/c/authors4la...

I’m heartbroken for my friends, friends of friends and everyone who have lost their homes, who have had to evacuate, who are on warning, who are worried and stressed and terrified. The devastation is beyond belief. North SF Valley residents- here’s how you can help tomorrow, Jan. 12.

@terryshepherd.com I’m following you in case you hadn’t noticed. 😀

Thanks for featuring me, Jeff!

As publicists, we often ask authors to talk about the backstory to their fiction. Pip Drysdale (The Close-Up) was brave enough to share her harrowing experience with CrimeReads. crimereads.com/pip-drysdale...

Yes.

This was fun to do!

Sharing…we have the scoop on upcoming books, plus lots of other things.

Second this!

I'm honored to be in @crystalking.com's Authors and Booklovers starter pack: go.bsky.app/CEG3bBB

Happy Friday! Lots to read this weekend, but first I must: OUTLANDER.

Ready for book club. Guests arriving soon.

This cracked me up. I think there’s always a place for salad.

Even though I’m diehard for the Dodgers, my dog’s name is Bronx, because I live with two Yankee fans.

Getting ready to host book club tomorrow night. We’re discussing ONCE MORE FROM THE TOP by Emily Layden. I’m making lamb ragú and butter lettuce salad (from page 143). Wish me luck!

deadline.com/2024/11/goth... This is cool news! Can’t wait for readers to discover Juliana, GA, the creepiest of creepy towns.

Every time I come on here Irving Berlin’s song pops into my head. “Blue skies…smiling at me…”

Happy Birthday, Dr. Banting. Grateful for your co-discovery of insulin and all your work in diabetes research. May there be a cure someday soon. #worlddiabetesday

Who needs a cat photo today? This is Dodger. Still basking in the afterglow of the WS win.

Hello bookish friends! Glad to be here.
