@ClassicShowbiz That's hilarious. And sad.

[Michael Sims @MichaelSimsBook]

@WomackWrites I love this. Wow.

[Michael Sims @MichaelSimsBook]

@jkpapin @BasicBooks @DGandBTweets Thank you! I am thrilled to be working with such a great team (beginning with you) on this dream project I have been moving toward during my whole career.

[jessica papin @jkpapin]

Delighted to announce a deal for author, polymath, nature-lover and dad, @MichaelSimsBook, whose newest work, Darwin's Child: Love, Fatherhood and a Wondrous New Vision of Nature, will be delivered into excellent hands of TJ Kelleher and the team @BasicBooks @DGandBTweets

[Michael Sims @MichaelSimsBook]

This is wonderful. Such justified outrage.

[John Fugelsang @JohnFugelsang]

This is only 2 mins and seriously worth watching all the way through.

[Michael Sims @MichaelSimsBook]

I've been reading about #charlesdarwin for, oh, half a century now, and I've written about him before, as in this @nytimesbooks piece: https://t.co/w4o0llPodS

[Michael Sims @MichaelSimsBook]

Now that there is an official announcement, I am delighted to take this opportunity to thank my wonderful agent, @jkpapin , Jessica Papin, VP at Dystel, Goderich, & Bourret, for her enthusiasm for and commitment to this project, and for her overall graciousness as a human being.

@HannahSWeber @TCRWUSTL Thank you!

[Michael Sims @MichaelSimsBook]

@HannahSWeber @TCRWUSTL Thank you! I am new to personal essays, after decades of other writing, and this was very important to me, so thank you much for the kind words.

[Michael Sims @MichaelSimsBook]

@bookcritics @TCRWUSTL Thank you! I think I am now less afraid of the personal essay, although still such a newcomer to it.

An essay about how much my son has taught me about myself and about life and #parenting and #fatherhood and #Autism , just up in The Common Reader @TCRWUSTL .

@darwinsbulldog Oh, man, I hate people who do that sort of thing. I've never said this sentence before, but good luck to the beaver.

"The world is still a dangerous place, which perhaps explains why this new collection will find a willing audience almost two centuries after the earliest of the stories was published."

NBCC member @MichaelSimsBook reviewed Carl Safina’s "Alfie and Me" for @washingtonpost: https://t.co/ffXEivhTTu

[Michael Sims @MichaelSimsBook]

@MargotWilliams @washingtonpost @nbkrug Yes, I certainly ought to have looked back over that a tenth time and realized that when I added Spade I ought to have deleted "Southern." Sigh.

[Michael Sims @MichaelSimsBook]

My @washingtonpost tribute to #josephhansen and his enduring detective #davebrandstetter. Thanks, @nbkrug & crew.

[Michael Sims @MichaelSimsBook]

@MargotWilliams @washingtonpost @nbkrug Thank you. And you are absolutely right. When I added Sam Spade, I ought to have deleted "Southern."

[Michael Sims @MichaelSimsBook]

How small and fearful must someone be to actually get angry at #BarbieTheMovie and call it dangerous? "The feminist agenda will kill us all" may possibly the stupidest remark I have ever read.

[TechnicallyRon (On all the platforms) @TechnicallyRon]

I took 1 star reviews of #Barbie from furious men on letterboxd and put them on the posters because it makes the film seem ever cooler.

@lauriemuchnick In audiobooks I find that I start with favorite authors, such as George Eliot, & soon find that the best reader is, say, the wonderful actress & goddess of audiobooks, Juliet Stevenson. Then I wind up listening to things I never would have thought of, because she reads them.
