Stand by Me was foundational to my childhood, my creativity, and my outlook on the world. It was the first movie I saw as a kid that felt honest about childhood and growing up.
Damn. This hurts for so many reasons. #RobReiner

My 8-year-old tonight: “Dad, do you know what the two greatest powers are? The power to make mistakes and the power of love.”
I asked him if he heard that somewhere or made it up. He said he made it up.
I can’t think of a better message for the new year. And I couldn’t be prouder of my guy.

To kidlit/YA creators: If you enjoy Bluesky, let your non-Bluesky publishing contacts know? Would be great to get more publishers on this platform, but I know many need to be convinced.
