Hoping everyone has a stress and worry free Thanksgiving filled with friends good food and wonderful family and that none of you snap and have to bury some racist, homophobic asshole relative’s body in a hole in the desert like last year because digging pits on Thanksgiving is hard.

Want a book from me that you won't see anywhere else? A book that won't be available ANYWHERE after Christmas? One with rats, and bats, and all of that?

What if it came with a bunch of other books, many of which also aren't available anywhere else?

Harry Connolly (@byharryconnolly.bsky.social) is one of my fave authors.

He needs $ help. harryjconnolly.com/17553-2/

For a good binge read, grab his completed epic fantasy trilogy The Great Way.

His "A Key, an Egg, an Unfortunate Remark" is the best standalone urban fantasy I've read.

Okay. So. I need to update everyone on where things stand for me, why I have made almost no progress on the new novel in the past month, and how things are looking for the future.  What I don&#8217…

This is possibly my favorite product answer yet:

Q: Will this deodorizing spray get rid of dead animal smell?
A: Yes, but you need to remove the dead animal or you will need to keep applying it.

This. You can work non-stop and have all the talent and still not see a dime from that effort. It's not a complaint - just a feature of what it means to create art. For most people art is the journey not the eyes that experience it afterwards. This is ok but should also set your expectations.
Some close friends to be get a little frustrated in my tendency to priortise luck in my own career, as they know how I work. I try to explain that work just is buying a lottery ticket. It's necessary, but certainly not sufficient. I know many folks who've worked as hard but the dice have been cruel.

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

Why did I get rid of my 2008 Ford Focus this summer?

Because I was given a 2014 Subaru. I wouldn't have accepted it except the Ford's trans was dying. They're famous for that. I could see the future, and it had broken gears scattered throughout it.
stupid young people, stop buying a new phone every year if you don't want to be broke. wait no, not like that.
