Author of "Outer Sunset" @UIowaPress "Insightful and bittersweet — without qualification — a terrific novel." — San Francisco Chronicle

[Mark Ernest Pothier @MarkEPothier]

Stopped by @booksonthepark to sign stock, and they said Outer Sunset is still "flying of the shelf," after nine months out! That would be due to the great staff there! Thank you Max, Brendan, and Kar (and @UIowaPress sales rep Gary) for being such great indie booksellers!

Chris Holmes' @burnedbybooks1 podcast is the smartest book talk out there, full stop. And I'm not just saying that because he found my novel, Outer Sunset, "devastating and life-affirming." (Thank you!)

Portugal shut down their last remaining coal fired power plant and is fostering a renewable energy revolution. They could be completely renewable by 2040 if not sooner. It can be done.

We have the solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate

My life has been so enriched by writing to writers I admire; this week, that meant finally meeting my dear friend David McGlynn after 15 years. Thanks, buddy. https://t.co/ugofdgDq2L

Nevada rangers drove directly into a blockade set up by climate protestors on the road to Burning Man. An officer pulled a gun out, tackling a protestor and threatening to shoot

Environmental activists were demanding that #BurningMan ban private jets + single-use plastics
