Regarding the Bucks' "risky" attempt to keep Giannis, I don't think people realize how much money Giannis brings into Milwaukee. He's a one-man boost to their economy.

My novel is in the Milwaukee Public Library!

This is cool. If you visit this site and click on the DIGITAL CATALOG button, you can see the Dryad's Crown listed (page 19). It's a catalog specifically for librarians wanting to order indie books. www.ingramspark.com/indieauthore...

From my next novel: “First time I saw you, you had taken a nasty hit on the head. Second time, you had an arrow in your leg. Now, you’re eating poisonous berries.” Astor gagged and spit the berries out of his mouth.

Or to put it another way: I'm Juliette Nichols in Silo 17. Just trying to survive. And my novel-in-progress is Solo. This temperamental, juvenile, somewhat helpful Steve Zahn dude, and I'm not sure if they're lying to me or even safe.

Writing a novel can be a lonely business. Sometimes, not always, but definitely at certain stages. (This is coming from someone who writes best in busy, public spaces. I need people around me.) Right now, I'm at the loneliest stage. I feel it.

@clclark.bsky.social I just preordered The Sovereign and Fate's Bane from Raven Book Store!

I finished reading Shakespeare's Venus and Adonis. I know it was wildly popular during his lifetime, but it feels like Ovid fan fiction. Synopsis: Boy does not want love goddess. He wants to hunt boar. Boar kills boy. Love goddess is mad and ruins love for everyone else.

Finally got started on Silo Season 2. That first episode was so great. I love how they used silence and phantom noises as a form of dialogue.

Today's Connections on NYT Games was savage.

"Fairly reclusive author." But that's the thing. He wasn't reclusive, at all. We made him reclusive. (We? Actually, mostly you.) winteriscoming.net/patrick-roth...

I need to finish writing my series before Witcher IV comes out—because this is going to DESTROY my productivity for at least a year. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nthv...

My next novel is 32% finished. For me, this is the worst place to be. The "new project" energy is gone. I'm far from completion with nothing to announce. All my confidence has been depleted. I just need to keep working and hope that what I have is a novel.

Sadly, I think I could do a killer Red Guardian cosplay.

In my next novel, I have a scene where a person drinks the poison given to her by a person she adores, believing the poison won't affect her. If this isn't a political statement, I don't know what is.

Good news! The Dryad's Crown has been selected for the IngramSpark author exhibit at the ALA conference in Philly (June 26 to July 1).

Reader: When are you going to finish your next novel? Me:

How do you not know what habeas corpus is? We learned this shit in high school!

Random Instagram ad: "Authors! Are you tired of no one buying your books?" Me: Actually, my book sells. And what the hell, algorithm!

A wonderful, insightful review of the Dryad's Crown (courtesy of @sffinsiders.com) www.sffinsiders.com/blog/review-...

Friends! Some news! I wrote an ALIEN novel, thereby fulfilling a lifelong dream! It’s about art and religion and madness and monsters, and it’s out in September! Available for preorder now! www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/783000...

Today, I learned about how Anglo Saxons from the early medieval period weaved cloth on a loom. I love writing epic fantasy because you do learn some interesting things in the process.

Ian posted a photo of his Onitsuka Tiger shoes. Now I want some Onitsuka Tiger shoes.

BIRD PROTOCOL. Take a bird, leave a bird.

If I understand the WNBA correctly, we can expect a full season of petty flagrant fouls against Paige Bueckers—since she was the number one pick. Yes?

I've been working on my bucket list. All I can come up with is: * Take my wife to Italy. * Befriend a crow.

Oh hell yeah. Apple TV+ officially gets all my money, henceforth. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vEio...
