Question for my parasocial friends at @ScreenCrush:

Hey, @ryanarey and @ColtonOgburn, is there a likelihood that Ned and MJ overlap with Riri Williams at @MIT?

[J.S. Puller @PullerWrites]

Stay vigilant, author friends. The publishing industry is crushing enough, without these scams crawling around.

Which one of my cast of weirdos is most likely to do this? I'm not sure. Let me know.

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of speaking with someone from @Humanity_Rising. This organization is producing some amazing anti-bullying programming for students. Make sure to check out their 2026 RISE UP challenge: https://t.co/nwI7cwJySI

Independent bookstores are magical places. Exhibit A: Booked Evanston, which I had the pleasure of visiting over the long weekend. Head over yourself soon!

I took a day off work, and decided to spend it doing something completely brainless. So I watched all the way through "Mortal Kombat: Defenders of the Realm." Shockingly, the series passes the Bechdel Test. I didn't have that on my bingo card.

[J.S. Puller @PullerWrites]

Mark your calendars! Thrilled to announce that on June 14, I'll be joining authors @SaraShacter, @NicoleMHewitt, @LieslShurtliff, & Natasha Tarpley for a panel on middle grade books, at the @BNBuzz in Hyde Park. Free and open to the public!

My third #QuestPit novel is something I've been working on for over ten years. It nicely dovetails my interest in X-Men and confronting school bullying. With a light seasoning of Greek myth. It's also the first manuscript I ever wrote in first-person!

My next #QuestPit book is one I'm obsessed with. The plot came to me in a dream, but in the dream it was a movie starring @RobertDowneyJr and @KChenoweth, among others. I desperately one this one picked up by a publishing house! Editors, please ask my agent for it!

Today is #QuestPit day, which means that writers across social media are taking a few moments to hype and pitch their current projects. Throughout the day, if you see anyone using that hashtag, give them some love. Meanwhile, here's my first piece in the pipeline.
