I wrote The Companions We Lose years ago and after a handful of rejections, and one publisher contract dissolving, I honestly didn't plan for it to see the light of day.
It's the second book I ever wrote, based on the simple but gut wrenching concept that everyone can relate to: losing a pet...

One the best book series I've ever read. I could read it forever. So so engrossing and smooth, flowing prose. I hope for a 4th book 🙏

Phenomenal book - never read anything like it.
The Night Ship is fishing up some happy netgalley reviews. Someone called it fun, and Publisher's Weekly called it an "unsettling and immersive sci-fi thriller", and that is everything I wanted.
It's still on the 'galley, but if that's not your jam let me know!

Fantastic book. A queer weird lit Sea Wolf.
From the Belly by Emmett Nahil is a claustrophobic tale set aboard a whaling ship. This isn’t quite the Moby Dick you were expecting. #Horror #BookSky 💙📚 #SSBA2025

Wtf
I'd classify this as "Not The Onion" but it doesn't even have that *so absurd it's kind of funny* vibe. It's just fucking infuriating. "Potentially divisive" indeed.
U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify swastikas, nooses as hate symbols
The military service, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, has drafted a new policy that classifies such items “potentially divisive.”

Back in 1793, a penny could get you a biscuit, a candle or a piece of candy. These days, many sit in drawers or glass jars and are basically cast aside or collected as lucky keepsakes.
