It's come to my attention that someone is attempting to impersonate me via an AOL account. Any actual correspondence would come from my HarperCollins.com email address. I would also never in a million years end an email with "Keep being awesome"

Catapult closing really sucks but is not particularly surprising if you know who owned it. The walls of my Perception Box are expanding!

just carved the muted post horn from Crying of Lot 49. If a trick or treater gets this reference I should probably give them money or something

Looks like my novel has been put on sale by our corporate Amazon overlords if you're into that kind of thing. Some cool people like the book, maybe you will too?

Recently learned that the short film I cowrote will play at the iconic Chinese Theatre next month. I don't think I'll make it unfortunately but it's pretty cool. If you're in/around Hollywood next month, keep an eye out. I'll post more details when I get them.

I was delighted to be Eric Idle's conversation partner last night. We talk all things Monty Python, The Rutles, comedy, writing, Provence, his upcoming book, and much more. I can cross "make a Python laugh" off my bucket list now. Link to the full conversation in the next post.

Fun cover reveal from @people for Idle in Provence. It's been a privilege and a thrill to work with Eric on this. It's very funny but also quite poignant with lots of amazing stories/pictures. The audiobook will be fantastic. Available for preorder now! people.com/eric-idle-idle-in…

I haven't written a song in probably twelve years but have written five in the last few weeks. I should probably record a very lo-fi EP or something just to get them out of my head
