Listen, guys. I write. That's what I do. Books. Poetry. Stories.

I am what I create.

Frankly, I waste too much time pissing about with marketing and social media. That's not what I do.

Read me. Know me.

They refused to probe a murder. The people with consciences walked out.

🚨 NEW: At least four leaders of the DOJ Civil Rights Division resigned because the section's head, Harmeet Dhillon, decided not to investigate shooting of Renee Good.

If you've never thought about white rioja, think again. Discovered this little beauty at a restaurant in Aranjuez. Petrol, minerality, deeply aromatic. Super wine. Be careful, there are a few Becquers, but this is the one.

Buy a book.

Any book, it doesn't matter which. The one you've been looking forward to, the one with the title that made you laugh, the weighty award-winner you've been meaning to get to. Whatever.

Treat yourself. Step away from it all. In this time of gross ignorance & madness, read something.

I am tired of the perpetual social media grind.

Can some more people just read my stuff?

Used books are a low-cost way to see if you like what an author has to offer. If you do find you like them, then you can buy their next book new, possibly from the same bookseller. They're also a way to get books no longer in print.

At 15% this Cab Sav/Shiraz unfiltered might put you back on your heels a bit, but full of fruit, wood, balance and elegence. I fine year from Glaetzer. Personally, think it's worth the price point.
