Probably a good time to remind folks that preorders are super helpful for books, especially first in series. Links to all sellers/formats here: penguinrandomhouse.com/books/735101/s…

@zyankalium @ViennaComicCon Thank you so much for stopping by! It's been really wonderful meeting folk (and it was a pleasant surprise to see that Dragon Age collection again!)

@AlexanderMFreed @ViennaComicCon It was really great meeting you and talking about Dragon Age. Thanks for signing my Dragon Age novel! I hope you have a great stay in Vienna and can see a bit of this beautiful city!

So looking forward to meeting folks at @ViennaComicCon this weekend! I'll be around to sign things as well as doing two panels: 16:30 Saturday I'll be at the panel stage with the great Claudia Gray and Andrea Boccardo. 16:00 Sunday I'll be doing a reading from The Mask of Fear!

Signing TODAY at Dragon's Lair Comics & Fantasy in Austin, TX, from 11:30 - 1:30. Drop by and pet the store cats, if they're not feeling shy!

@patrick_wheat Getting a PO box is on my to-do list--I know folks are interested and I'd love to assist. Feel free to ping me again in a month or two if I haven't mentioned anything!

@AlexanderMFreed Hello! Do you have a current PO box or address that would allow fans to send you mail? I would be interested in sending you bookplates to inscribe and affix to some of your works I have collected in case I can't make it to one of your conventions! Hope to cross paths with you!

Repost from another place.

@Valdez1Antonio It should be but I literally just created it this morning so 1) I may have done something wrong, and / or 2) it may still be propagating. Looks like I've got some followers showing up so give it another try? @alexandermfreed.bsky.social

@AlexanderMFreed Is your other place profile public? Can’t find it

Repost from another place.

Just finished @olgakhazan's piece on changing one's personality (I'm behind on my reading) and it's the most delightful thing I've read in a while. Funny and thought-provoking and empathetic. theatlantic.com/magazine/archi…

@NolesAndPhins No new Star Wars books in the works at the moment, but I always enjoy working with the Del Rey and Lucasfilm folk and they know how to reach me! (You're welcome to gently let them know you'd like to see more, but we're all on good terms. We'll see what the future brings.)

@AlexanderMFreed Any plans for any more titles? I hope so! If so, what era are they set in?

@AlexanderMFreed Mr. Freed, just dropping a line to say well done on Victory’s Price! I just finished it-I am a 46 year old Star Wars fan who’s been there since the beginning, and your books are most DEFINITELY Star Wars! Way to go!

@CT7056 I'll take it!

@AlexanderMFreed Don't worry, you made me smile, so that's somewhat productive.

Why have the Fantastic Four never fought a Boltzmann brain? (I would also accept a Boltzmann brain as a Doom Patrol villain, but only grudgingly.) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boltzmann…

Your move, Marvel. (Yes, I should be doing something more productive. Anything, really.)

Panel 2. The brain is generating enormous amounts of sinister energy. Somehow, its "brow" is furrowed menacingly. BRAIN: You have discerned my origin! But you cannot understand what it is to be born of pure CHAOS, denied the home, family, and body you remember!
