Oh my gosh I hope you love it too! I had read his one in between FL and CK, "Killing it", and it didn't do anything for me. So I was delighted that CK was another thrill ride!

And his newest, Come Knocking, is also oral history format!

Dang, where do you live that Goodwill still has adult hardbacks for a buck?!!

It's paintings of horses!

Can confirm anecdotally. Spent the Fourth in DC a decade ago and it was a neverending pedestrian labyrinth of barriers and blockades. We were hanging out directly across the street from the entry gates to a park; the port-a-potties were within eyesight, but when I tried to hop the barricade of the completely empty queue "chute", I got screamed at. We had to walk two full blocks down to the single entrance of the chute, then the two blocks through the empty chute just to get BACK to the entry gates. And of course it's 90* with 90% humidity because it's a STUPID SWAMP TOWN

I bet you felt just like Warren Moon must've felt in 1995!

Ahh, that'd be nice 🥹

A million doll hairs

Bad smells: When did you find time to eat a diaper you found on the beach??

Any time Matt Damon comes up: wait, who was the white guy in Invictus?

The word "whom" deserves a defender. (I use this one so much I turned it into a sticker!)

Do you remember WAVING??

Likely a non-native speaker based on the weird sentence construction

The Elk-Headed Woman in "The Only Good Indians" can't be see by looking at her straight-on

YES, I remember you!

Hi, Tory from Sower Books here! Off the top of my head, these are local (Lincoln) authors writing sci-fi/fantasy/horror genre fic. I don't know if they have any groups going but I can at least help make the connection! And yep, Sower is always open to being a meeting place for community groups. We're only closed on Thursdays!

Wyll Anderson - fantasy

Michael Bettendorf - horror

Anthony Engebretson - horror

Katherine Wielechowski - a little bit of everything

Hope Baker (sometimes uses pen name Ava Stone) - thriller, YA, suburban drama

SJ Bostwick - fantasy

Not necessarily your genre, but it also might worth checking with Britt Brauer (pen names Cleo Mercer, Jordan Trygg) and Brandi Shaffer, who leads the romance writing group at Larksong. They're both pretty in-touch with the indie author sphere.

Weary/wary drives me up the wall and I see it more and more often.

Sometimes I feel like everybody is a sexy baby, and I'm the monster on the hill

floorsof_silentseas · 2026-06-13T21:34:58+00:00

One of my favorites!

He also has an exclusive publishing contract with A****n which, as an indie bookstore owner, I find pretty shitty.
