I’ve been waiting on this one from Thomas Mullen for a long time. Don’t miss it in April. He’s one of the smartest thriller writers around.
A Flicker in the Dark is eligible for Best First Novel at the Anthony Awards!! Congratulations and good luck to all the deserving authors, see y’all at Bouchercon!
I'm still fairly creeped out by Kevin Roose's experience of AI love. Who can explain it better than Isaac Asimov, who, as Jeremy Dauber tells it, even found something hopeful about robots that want desperately to be like us. (don't miss the killer GIF) theatlantic.com/books/archive/…
Congratulations to professor of Jewish literature at Columbia and Yiddish Book Center board member, Jeremy Dauber, for his new biography, "Mel Brooks: Disobedient Jew." For more on Dauber's book, check out a review from The Forward forward.com/culture/538930…
Proud as punch to have *two* clients nominated for ITW Organization's 2023 Best First Novel Prize! Warm congrats to Erin Young (THE FIELDS, from flatiron & Hodder & Stoughton), and to Stacy Willingham (A FLICKER IN THE DARK, from Minotaur Books & HarperCollinsUK)
Watch out, Connecticut! The CrimeConn invasion happens on May 6—lock your doors and bar your windows!! Kelley Ragland
Lately, I’m in awe of everything that Mary Gaitskill writes. This morning I read her incredible new story in The New Yorker, Minority Report. Which led to her beautiful remembrance of Rebecca Godfrey, whose novel The Torn Skirt I published in our youths, and who died last fall. ❤️💔
This brief interlude, a single paragraph of exquisite tenderness in Mary Gaitskill’s amazing The New Yorker story “Minority Report”…
Congrats to Macmillan Publishers for publishing so many great (and award-worthy!) thrillers--including two by my own clients, Stacy Willingham and Erin Young! Kudos to everybody else on this list too (but howdy especially Jennifer Hillier & Chris Pavone) ITW Organization
Great thread here about the communication between authors & their agents. The timelines Joy McCullough (is on Threads) lays out here seem fair & reasonable (even tho' I'm a slow-reading agent myself!) And if I've fallen behind? At very least, you deserve to hear from me w/out having to chase...
