Surprise anthology release today!
Scott's planet is a shared world anthology about a colony abandoned on a world still in its Carboniferous period. That means giant bugs, no real trees, and a lot of wacky biology to play with.

The night will never stay,
The night will still go by,
Though with a million stars
You pin it to the sky;
Though you bind it with the blowing
wind
And buckle it with the moon,
The night will slip away
Like sorrow or a tune.

Bookselling is like the most "people go to the store and buy what looks cool to them without a particular agenda" type business left, and your purchases have a huge influence on what is ordered, what is displayed, and what is recommended.

NYC’s density really working against ICE today, much easier for a ton of people to swarm and shut them down once they realized what was going on

Confirmed: Earlier this morning a photog overheard agents inside the parking garage say “dismissed,” believed to be calling off their planned mass raid.
A source tells me they had planned for *hundreds* of agents to flood Canal St. They got flooded instead.

I can attest to this also. Pecan and pumpkin are the most American pies according to the Göttingen American studies department. Why? It's the two flavors that were mandatory for our Thanksgiving dinner.
Because, friends, say "American as apple pie" all you want, but if you are nearing the start of the traditional tryptophan coma, there are only two pies that are truly worthy of being served at Thanksgiving - and this has been proven by international experimentation.
Pecan and Pumpkin win.
