Dear @Apple,
I have a gigantic monitor. Why can't I see my System Settings as wide as I want instead of scrolling like a philistine?

Hey, @LittleBrownUK, it's been 11 months since SLEEPER BEACH by Nick Harkaway came out over there. I know there's an audiobook for this. Any idea when you plan to release in the US?

[Johne Cook @SilentVanityE]

@ATRightMovies That's easy...

@HermanPHunter1 Link?

My favorite author's account has been hacked on Twitter. I contacted him on FB and he asked me to ask y'all to report the account.

Long overdue update on the THE BLUE GOLEM:
You may remember that I'm on the 14th draft of this novel, a page one rewrite that focuses only on the promise of a golem detective novel. I've just turned in chapter 42 to my trusty editing group. Only 5 chapters and an epilogue to go!

@ItsKieranDrew Pinging @WrongsToWrite. 🤣

[Johne Cook @SilentVanityE]

@WendyThePoohMN @ItsKieranDrew Same. While I'm sad for (the newsletter originator) it looks like that rarest of things, a bone fide win/win. I'll stick around. KD's the best.

fwiw, I'm making progress on the page one rewrite of THE BLUE GOLEM (where I focus entirely on the fantasy detective story everyone most wants to read). I'm currently finishing chapter 14 (The Break-in) of roughly 42 overall. Here's a taste).

[Johne Cook @SilentVanityE]

@monkeypenny34 @AaronNagler I have. I remember.

I know SOLO, A STAR WARS STORY is nearly universally despised, but don't sleep on the score penned by the legendary John Williams. This is my writing music for tonight.

Today's writing music from THE LAST VOYAGE OF THE DEMETER by Bear McCreary.

@RichardFulco Yeah, that's how I learned to type. I did 120 wpm on an IBM Selectric.

@AnneHawley I just watched this trailer at lunch!

[Johne Cook @SilentVanityE]

@AnneHawley I avoided COVID until the end of this past March. My taste / smell were off for a few days, but not really even a full week. It gets better.

[Johne Cook @SilentVanityE]

I've decided that the best Marvel show on Disney+ is WEREWOLF BY NIGHT, a one-off homage to the classic monster features I grew up with (with a score by the director / composer Michael Giacchino).
Yeah, I said it.
