I'm so sad about the passing of Rob Reiner & his wife Michele. Not only did Mr. Reiner direct some of my favorite films, he also rallied against unfairness and inequality and was never afraid to point a finger at those in charge. That makes him a hero in my book. RIP, Rob & Michele. You were loved.

NO SECOND CHANCES by Rio Youers. Drop this novel on your phone or e-reader of choice for $1.99 (for a limited time, US only). It's better for your soul and your brain than doom scrolling. It's better than Candy Crush, too.

Cool fact: @stephenking.bsky.social loved this book, and I think you will, too. NO SECOND CHANCES is only $1.99 on e-book for a limited time. For that price, it'd be a damn shame to miss out.

Sad to say goodbye to Robert Redford but happy for the movies, characters, and moments he gave us. RIP.

I went to see the Waterboys at the Danforth in Toronto last Thursday. Such a great show, and Steve Earle showed up on the big screen!

Might I recommend one of my novels if you feel like a shot of action in your life?

I'm supposed to travel to the US in August to help promote this, but it's looking increasingly unlikely that will happen, America being what it is.

Fact: @cgolden.bsky.social is one of the best horror writers working today. His new novel, THE NIGHT BIRDS, is out today - a serious contender for horror novel of the year - maybe the decade! Go grab yourself a copy.
