COYOTE (Amphetamine Sulphate, 2024)
Pinned
Now that it's entering the public domain, I can announce my 4 part slasher remake of The Sound and the Fury!

The Sound and the Fury
The Sound and the Fury: Benjy's Revenge
The Sound and the Fury: The Curse of Quentin Compson
Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Fury
Caught up on Welcome to Derry... I think it is one of the most exceptionally stupid shows I have ever seen.

Think I'm gonna start watching WELCOME TO DERRY today. This will be my complaint/comment thread.

He forgot to mention that Kennedy is among the top 3 people on the planet who is the most truly afraid to die.

The more you read Negative Space, the less hopeless you realize it is. It’s a beautiful novel about faith and growing up and letting go.

IMO the best way to keep the joy of reading alive is by reading. Because, ya know, it’s pretty joyous.
Ahead of the National Year of Reading, the Education Committee has launched a new inquiry to understand how reading can be nurtured following the decline in the number of children reading for pleasure 👇 #BookSky

Damn. So, Butcher's Crossing by John Williams is stupendous.

Allowing myself a little "go fuck yourself" as a treat.

It’s wild how 2025 gave us two Luigi Mangione-coded protagonists and they’re both from dystopian, pseudonymous Stephen King novels from a half century ago.

Was sick over the weekend and listened to Superego Forgotten Classics version of Death on the Nile 7 times. @pftompkins.bsky.social is clearly the best casting for Hercule Poirot imaginable.

This is the only time I’ll mention this, but I’m very proud of these two stories that I published this year:

Our BodyPunk brother has slain the priest and married his Princess. Congratulations again, bud.
Ya boy got married! The priest challenged me to single combat to prove I was ready. His mistake was letting me use a halberd cuz I don’t know if any sword can take me that way. Anyway. New priest needed. But me? I married my girl, doggyyyyyyyyyyy

Any chance I get, I’ll take it. Wampler gave me a shot before I’d published anything, or proven that I had any ideas worth hearing out. A throwaway tweet that turned into a 1,000 word pitch that became an 80 minute Kingcast episode with ME as the guest… I’ll love and miss that man forever.
i wish wampler was still around i would be texting that dude right now
😱 oh, I may have underestimated Muschetti’s ability to play in this world…

Why Isn’t Pennywise in The Running Man? It's more complicated than you might think... bit.ly/4a04Vvk

The new Running Man movie contains my favorite moment from the book, which I really didn't think would happen.
November 15, 2025 at 12:49 PM
Hey, anything of note get revealed to the world in the last 24 hours? I haven’t been feeling very well.
November 15, 2025 at 12:43 PM
Yeah, yeah, Bachman Book movies have been cool and stuff but I really just can't wait to see Eddie Murphy in the new Pink Panther reboot. Now THERE is something with promise (I genuinely mean this)
November 14, 2025 at 2:38 PM
At some point today, I am going to see The Running Man. You will know once I have seen it. Trust me.

Thought I hadn’t done much writing since Coyote, but the 4 pieces I’ve published in the last year have a combined word count that well exceeds that of Coyote.

One time I hooked up with a world renowned supermodel because she saw me reading Bohumil Hrabal’s All My Cats at a Dunkin’ Donuts in Union Square.
Oh fuck off
