I write novels like ALL OUR WRONG TODAYS, television like THIS IS US, and movies like THE F WORD a.k.a. WHAT IF. Also Chapter 56.

Mickey 7 by Edward Ashton is witty & propulsive sci-fi, uniquely weird and a whole lot of fun. Bong Joon-ho is already making it into a movie—an incredible match of filmmaker with novel. Terrific summer read.

Never made it to the UK for the paperback of ALL OUR WRONG TODAYS, so the signed copies now at Waterstones Piccadilly are, I believe, the only ones in the British Isles!

Well, apparently I was in the UK in 2018 and signed a bunch of paperbacks so this is a filthy lie. But this is the first time… since the last time.

A terrible loss, Ron Cephas Jones was a massive talent who made every moment of his work on This Is Us (and much other work) gorgeously alive.

Question: I own land & want to build a house on it, so I go to a construction site to steal a brick & go to another site to steal wood & another to steal pipes & I keep going until I have enough to build the house. It’s my land but the material is stolen… so who owns the house?

I still think about how I read Adrian McKinty’s novel THE CHAIN by flashlight during a power outage and after that it might be impossible for any other book to freak me out so much.

Saw THE LEHMAN TRILOGY last night, Philip Akin directing for Canadian Stage. Watching the trio of actors play so many characters while hopping around the fabulous vertical set like billy goats was extraordinary. Toronto theatre is firing out of the pandemic like a cannon.

In memory of the immensely talented director and lovely human being Charles Officer—if you can help out his family this holiday season, please do so: gofund.me/ff2963f6

RIP the great Tom Wilkinson. I got to work with him on a movie I wrote called The Samaritan. An absolute pro, he asked razor-sharp questions about the character, shared wonderful anecdotes, and elevated every second onscreen. I only wish I’d had the chance to do it again.
