An experiment I recommend is putting your phone on silent on the other side of a room, or in a different room, from wherever you're watching a movie.

Each time you feel that twitch to check your phone? That's not the movie's fault. It's because they got you hooked and stole your attention span.
Oh my god. She's 1000% right. This makes so much sense.

#AuthorLife is a novel about an author who gets the wrong sort of inspiration from his dying career—because publishing is a bloody hard business.

Newcomer @joezagets-author.bsky.social brings us this pitch-black hilarious satirical thriller in Q3 of next year.

Had a tough/sad conversation with my son, Rocco, this afternoon (long story). When I finished up, he grabbed his bass guitar, started playing the intro to "Longview" and said, "Let's play, Dad." Then we jammed out together for a while. What a wonderful young man this guy is. And I am thankful.
