Galleys of my book DAD HAD A BAD DAY have arrived! 🎾 Dad is having a good day. Official US publication date is 5/19/26 astrapublishinghouse.com/product/dad-...

“When Teresa first arrived, about a year back, she’d tried to smuggle in cocaine stuffed inside a ball of knitting yarn.” Read from @delaneynolan.bsky.social’s new novel, Happy Bad.

Dad Had a Bad Day arrives 5/19/26 right before Roland Garros! Here is the cover and a link for more info: astrapublishinghouse.com/product/dad-...

Il s'appelle donc ROCK$TAR, est sensiblement plus court que son prédécesseur, a nécessité quatre ans de travail, et s'accompagnera d'une bande-son originale à sa sortie le 2 septembre prochain, chez Quidam Editeur. Mais on se reparle d'ici là.

Thrilled to share that my novel DAD HAD A BAD DAY will be published by Astra House! I’m excited to work with Emily Bell & the team at Astra House. Thank you to my wonderful agent Chris Fischbach @fishmpls.bsky.social for making this happen!
