Ummm…am I the only one who finds this description of the Lenny Kravitz concert on Amazon Prime more than a little suspect?

Not sure what happened to the photo - the books is not wide like that…bsky weirdness? I don’t know, but I do know it’s a great book in any format.

The cover looks fantastic, love how it ties back to the first book and continues Charlie’s journey in such a powerful way.

Thank you - this means so much to me. I wanted to connect to the first book and show the distance the characters have traveled - in space and time, and emotionally, psychologically. And on the back are some short white lines that end abruptly- these represent the broken road from the first book.

I’m a word nerd. And I like descriptive analogies and metaphors. Im also fond of festering, fly covered blister of noxious pus that has been steaming in the August sun. I apply that one to Tump🤣

“Slimy turd rope” - excuse me while I write that down I. Order to steal it for a future story.

Also, well said.

I’d love to figure out to turn one or more of my books (current or upcoming into a game OR learn how to get involved with narrative writing for games.

But I’m an old man now and I just don’t see how my work would fit into the Pong universe of my childhood.

@jcljules.bsky.social - I read your wonderful piece on Tim Berners-Lee in the New Yorker. Impressive long form journalism and I must say, a bittersweet tale of one man’s impact on all our lives. Well done. Highly recommend for anyone who cares about history, big tech, and the future of privacy.

Hey #UK readers and #BookSky - "Kill Sequence" by @writersteve.bsky.social and all of our other titles are missing from several UK retailers due to a Nielsen Title Data error. We're working hard to get this corrected. Books will be available on Amazon UK, and from the direct link we'll post Friday.
