Spencer Hall - Kind of Sort of Fine OUT NOW

TODAY is the day! KIND OF SORT OF FINE is out in the world! 🙌📚🎉 I poured my heart into this book & I’m excited to share it! I hope it makes you laugh & reminds you that it’s never too late be who you really want to be (even if it’s a 6-ft pencil in the middle of the street).

Me writing my book vs Me operating within the publishing industry

I think this is what they call a ✨vague publishing tweet✨

Me: I’m such a rugged masculine dude. I bet I would make an excellent lumberjack or wilderness pioneer. My Spotify daylist: Yeah, think again, champ.

Every cosplay I’ve ever done is mildly obnoxious. This year, I made a 9 ft tower of goombas to carry around #C2E2. I’ve already chased a couple Marios.

I read something that said since the average life expectancy in the US is 77 middle-aged is actually 38 and now I need to go lay down.

Goodreads CEO: Now that the scandal with the Book of the Year awards has died down, we can go back to being a great website where only real people rate books they’ve actually read. All that’s left now is for me to open Twitter while taking a big sip of my morning coffee…

Last night I saw “Love Actually” all the way through for the first time and it sort of feels like the writers were like Hey, let’s make a feel good Christmas movie! But still with plenty of fat jokes, right?? Oh yeah, of course!

@HerringAli Thank you, Ali! 📚😁

@spencerwrites Love it

No one likes the house that gives out school supplies for Halloween, but what about funny YA novels?? 🎃📚

My wife bought me a flannel jacket for my birthday so now I’m entering my Evermore Era.

Overheard at Barnes and Noble: Young girl: Mom, can I get this graphic novel? Mom: I don’t know, honey. This is about Nazis in Poland. That seems pretty heavy. What about something a little lighter, like this one? It’s about…Hurricane Katrina? Oh no.

@MielMoreland I had this same thought!

The writing process

No hate to anyone, but this kind of mindset is a symptom of our obsession with “hustle culture.” Every minute of your time needs to be dedicated to becoming the best version on yourself. Time spent relaxing is seen as a waste of time. It’s a poison. Enjoy your frivolous hobbies!

Me: I’m a clean, hygienic person. The inside of my AirPods case: You sure about that?

Happy #IndieBookstoreDay! 📚 This afternoon, my wife & I visited @unchartedbooks, @wcfbook, and The Understudy, each of them packed with people excited to buy books. Here’s the stack we picked up. Hope you got a chance to support your local bookstore today. #chilovebooks

Thanks, I hate it. 🤦‍♂️

My wife has always been annoyed I’d never seen any of the “Lord of the Rings” movies, so this year she insisted we watch them. Last night we went to a 20th ann. screening of “Return of the King,” thus completing my LOTR journey. We all agree Gimli’s the best character, right?
