If you ever wonder if all the promo and reminders to preorder are effective, I will tell you that *this* reminder was the one that got through! I've been hearing you talk about preordering for months and kept thinking "I'll get to it". Well today I actually did! Very excited to read Escape!

100%. these ideas are so boring and trite, everyone thinks they’re a visionary liberated by ai but it’s mostly hackneyed tedium with a glossy tech sheen.

Assuming its validity: This is not funny because it’s awful, but I am amazed by the idea that it would be great to interact with a 10-foot AI Martin Luther King and *ask him what he had for breakfast*. And ask him how his day is going! WHAT IN THE BORING-ASS DYSTOPIA ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

This seems fake but it's completely real: Audio of Seattle's current Mayor dreaming of a giant computer-simulated Martin Luther King, something the King family has explicitly asked people not to do.
Big thanks to Erica Barnett for being the only reporter in town covering these events so closely!

Nathan Hill is one of my favorite authors. His books are vast and emotionally complex, but also hilarious and antic, wrestling with major social themes even as they delight in their comic characters.

Having him blurb my novel is such a profound honor, and hopefully speaks to Escape!’s DNA.

Stephen Fishbach @stephenfishbach.bsky.social · 5d

Thank you so much, Stacy!! I was beyond excited to get Nathan's blurb, because his book was definitely the target. You know what they say, shoot for the stars, and even if you miss, you'll go hurtling into the endless void of space!
