Happy pub day to my lil crime thriller The Guilty Sleep. Filled with gratitude for @RozFoster, @tmargaritaplum, @DiversionBooks and everyone who has supported this book. When I started in Oct 21, it just felt like a bunch of words and references to pie, and now, here we are!

@davidclowery Good LORT I love me a Jarritos

@ap_org @Richard_Kadrey That is, in essence, what they were teaching us. Applying countermeasures impacts the ability of the polygrapher to effectively read the results—but you combine that with NLP manipulation during the pre-box questioning period.

@jdbaker11058 @Richard_Kadrey They taught you wrong. One absolutely can beat a polygraph (as numerous spies have), because the method is vulnerable to simple and effective countermeasures.

For the record, I was polygraphed twice, lied like a son of a bitch, and passed both times. Only idiots and 1970s cop shows believe in polygraphs.

@lhallwriter Same! Plotting and plodding, I call it.

Writers, how do you flesh out your ideas? I tend to stare at a blank screen until I decide going for a walk will help...

@JBotzenhart @lhallwriter Oh man I love that, what a retro look, done really well!

@lhallwriter Coming Spring / Summer 2026

Authors, show me your awesome book covers and I will happily repost some! Be sure to include links also :)

@lhallwriter That’s a great cover!

The Teleporter is a unique and off beat super hero comedy with boozy undertones mybook.to/drunkenpaperba…

@lhallwriter I was really pleased with how this came out. a.co/d/0hxUslwA

@_DavidMorrell @joelansdale So many of them clearly AI-generated as well.

I’m getting more phishing emails. If you’re an author & you receive any communication from a stranger offering to publicize your work, connect you w/a book club, or enhance your online discoverability, don’t pay any fee or deposit they might ask for—in fact, don’t respond at all.

@GothicOrnate AI slop

二战背景中的科幻短片，制作的相当精良！

Has anyone ever made a tv show or movie about the spy suburbs of northern Virginia?

@CryptoCyberia I wish my house had a coat bath

Every AI worker replacement product so far summarized perfectly in a tweet.

@dc_dummies 💯

People make this “who’s in the DMV” thing so hard. It’s not that difficult. Did you grow up with this amazing gentleman on your tv telling you if you had a snow day? Congrats you’re living in the DMV.

@cterlson Great list. Goood LORT I loved The Last Good Kiss.

Yep - George Saunders, Jennifer Egan, Joe Lansdale, James Crumley come to mind.

@cterlson Got one today, said the most lovely things about my book, only they named a completely different book written by someone else. Just lazy at this point LOL.

I think I hate fake book club scams the worst. They feed right into our fragile writer egos. And for those brief seconds you wonder… well, maybe it’s legit. It’s not.

@cterlson @joelansdale Lansdale too, of course, NK Jemisin, James SA Corey, SA Cosby, Dan Abnett, King and Koontz, Andre Norton, Douglas Hill, Gary Paulsen, Lee Child, Tolkien and Lewis and Lawhead.

DeLillo has written 17 novels. I've read 12 of them. Might need to up that. I've read everything George Saunders has published (after I read Vigil). Lost track of how many @joelansdale books I've read. Who are your multiples?

Hidden Peak Press is back! Which means my story about Bigfoot and marital dysfunction is available once again. hiddenpeakpress.com/2025/02/10/tho…

@heyThomasTrang Yep, that’s the one!

Can confirm. This is a hell of a read.
