Thanks for requesting the book at the library 🙏

This is amazing. Thank you, Mike 🤘

Need some noir in your life? @cwblackwell.bsky.social has you covered. Hard Mountain Clay from @shotgunhoney.com is a brutal novella, River Street Rhapsody is an amazing collection of poems, and WKTP from @rhppress.bsky.social puts society under a microscope. Pick up CWs stuff. You won't regret it.

Still so proud to have a story in this anthology. If you haven’t read it, I have to say it’s a complimentary read to On Fire and Under Water. So many great authors, like @vondoviak.bsky.social, @jamesdfhannah.bsky.social, @tomandes.bsky.social, @cwblackwell.bsky.social.

Not to be a reply guy, but I’ve been writing a novel with this band looping in my headphones. So good.

Absolutely. And I love that we now have Willy Vlautin picking up the mantle of writing lonely down-and-out working class characters.
