Twenty-seven novels in, I still spell check "mayonnaise" every time. And get it wrong every time.

This week: NorCal! Hope to see you there! Also? At Campbell, I'll be in conversation with my high school English teacher which I've unreasonably excited about.

Guess who made the cover of @NovelistPost Magazine? Spoiler: it's me, looking extra smolder-y! Great discussion about the evolution of Orphan X: buff.ly/h9JXwLG

This. Why hide truth at the bottom of a cesspool? There are clear ways to reward better social media that ALSO align with good business for social media companies. First and most obvious -- screen out bot networks, inauthentic activity, and digital toxins launched by hostile foreign regimes. They are weapons being used against us and fired directly into our (and our kids') faces. Users, advertisers, and the companies themselves can benefit from authenticating that their audience, their customers, their advertisers, are engaging with real accounts and real ideas (even bad ones) versus psychopathic algos or swarms of bots from a Saint Petersburg troll farm. Independent research access into network contagion is an effective first step. It's transparent, not regulatory. When distrust is this high, we should all lean into transparency. We can have a healthy financial marketplace as well as a free marketplace of ideas. In fact, they nourish each other.

Unfortunately social media is trending in the wrong direction. As world events happen, I increasingly feel that what I see online is 99% junk (AI slop, ragebait, partisan talking points) and 1% useful info. There are things that can and should be done to deal with bot swarms, AI fakes and people who routinely peddle lies proven lies that are exposed via great tools like community notes. Right now, finding good information on social media feels like wading through a sea of manure to find a kernel of something valuable at the bottom. This is in spite of proactively muting, unfollowing and blocking liars, bot-boosted accounts etc. The failures of the mainstream media are now being replicated online. We need and deserve better.

I was honored to be invited to write an introduction to the English translation of Suspicion, a 1982 novella by Seicho Matsumoto, Japan's best-known crime writer. You can read my intro at @CrimeReads. crimereads.com/seicho-matsumo…

Luke Devine decorates his plane for Orphan X’s book tour. So much for clandestine operations.

Huge congrats to the wondrous @1pcornwell for seeing #Scarpetta come to life on screen March 11. Patricia Cornwell has been a huge force in the world of thrillers for a long, long time.

@GreggHurwitz Big fan of the Orphan X series and always look forward to each release. I’m about halfway through Antihero and it feels a bit different than the earlier books—more extended environmental and emotional descriptions. Curious if that shift was intentional in Evan’s development?
