Cannot wait to read this one
Writing Tyrant Lizard Queen is the most fun I've had with a book. I'm letting myself by a maximalist about what I want to see in it, goop and gore, comfort and tenderness, terror and warmth.

My intent is to write a dinosaur book that lets you know that no one could have written it but me.

So amazing to see this book at the top of the bestseller list today- in a time when absolutely everything is vying for our limited attention, to see a book on history, science, public health, and human spirit reaching so many readers is positive and hopeful.
EVERYTHING IS TUBERCULOSIS is a #1 New York Times bestseller!

THANK YOU to everyone who has read this little book and responded to it so generously. It's been a long time since a book about TB topped bestseller lists, and I'm so grateful to know more people are learning about this needless scourge.

Remarkable, moving interview b/w @mariashriver.bsky.social & Oprah on I AM MARIA, out 4/1 from @theopenfield.bsky.social. Well worth the watch/listen. The book is "an astonishing work," in Oprah's words, & I 100% agree. Courageous, inspiring, healing, & a must-read.
