Arrived safe and sound in CA @grimoakpress.bsky.social @shawnspeakman.com

For those of you who enjoy the anthologies I edit. This one is fantastic! Coming this December, publishing at @brandonsanderson.com ‘s #DragonsteelNexus. 🦾🎉🔥 Pre-order at @grimoakpress.bsky.social

@shawnspeakman.com take a look at Terrys Books. That whole side case is all @terrybrooks.bsky.social

@shawnspeakman.com we’ve rearranged and hunted down more Grimoire

I love the act of writing. But sometimes just sitting with my coffee and letting a story percolate until I know where its first two acts end is a better use of the caffeine. ❤️🔥🦾

I’m pretty tired. Think I’ll go home now.

Well how about that. Congrats to Peter Orullian and @shawnspeakman.com ! #BookSky

Unbroken anthology announcement video by @shawnspeakman.com Kickstarter coming soon. (Never could have imagined my name appearing in a line-up like this) #BookSky youtu.be/e3_lJbXPhcs?...

No Fascists Day is upon us. Again.

Tomorrow at @powells.bsky.social Cedar Hills.

Thank you @terrybrooks.bsky.social and @shawnspeakman.com for the FB live! A gloriously bright spot in an often dark world. Don’t have Facebook so you can add at least one lurker to your numbers Shawn;) Can confirm Mick Herron’s Clown Town is amazing, you’ll love it. Looking forward to next time!

I'm still reading James Holland's 'Together We Stand'. I'm also dipping into the first volume of 'Unfettered' (ed. @shawnspeakman.com). I'm really enjoying discovering some new (to me) authors in there.

I had the great pleasure of visiting the @grimoakpress.bsky.social warehouse yesterday to sign 500 copies of GRIMOIRE that debuted at the Seattle Worldcon. I was lucky to be able to sign alongside @shawnspeakman.com, @katogden.bsky.social, and Megan Lindholm!

Voters not taking responsibility for their actions is why we are in this mess. A vote matters. A vote has consequences. Every vote matters. And not voting is not the same as voting.

Was very grateful to sit down to dinner with @shawnspeakman.com and @terrybrooks.bsky.social for dinner - thank you Shawn !!!! and @grimoakpress.bsky.social for a chance to listen to Terry’s wisdom and @mattdinniman.bsky.social was there too as a tremendous bonus !!! So much fun!

Whoa TIL that @shawnspeakman.com & the terrific @grimoakpress.bsky.social are giving the special edition treatment to an iconic & highly underrated @tadwilliams.bsky.social series. The Otherland saga is one of my alltime faves & finally it’s getting the deluxe look & feel which it richly deserves

TWO WEEKS UNTIL THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT!

When you’re definitely not guilty.

No one will be fooled by this. People are asking for the release of the evidence from the Epstein investigation. The grand jury transcripts are something else entirely and would exclude almost all evidence.

For once, a very good headline, and of course @paolobacigalupi.bsky.social is not wrong here www.cpr.org/2025/07/12/i...

I'm seeing Superman in IMAX today. It is an emotional day. When being chemo-infused for both of my cancers, I wore a Superman t-shirt every day to treatment. But it goes back farther than that. Thoughts on my Patreon.

Stupid Is versus Stupid Does.

So @shawnspeakman.com of @grimoakpress.bsky.social just wrote to say the frontispiece page of their deluxe The Darkest Road is headed my way to be signed. I used to like him. (More seriously, with Fionavar done, we’ll start thinking about what to do next. They do have their ideas.)

Question: Is it NO KINGS? Or NO KKKINGS? Answer: Yes.

Fuck, I don’t even want to visit the United States. And I live here.

A nice interview setting up my event in Santa Cruz, Tuesday. www.goodtimes.sc/christopher-...

We need answers about what happened on Alderaan and assurances from the Empire that it won’t happen again.
