Monthly reminder: Many people have a book in them, but it takes a special kind of freak to leave the Land of Laziness, cross the Plains of Procrastination and Insecurity Mountain, find the Blade of No One Made You Do This, and use it to cut your chest open and yank that book out.

Kudzu and murder go together like moonshine and funerals.

Defying corrupt sheriffs and beating white supremacists go together like gun-totin' old women from No Business Holler and raids on a salvage yard.

They all go into my crime novel SEVEN ANGELS.

Approaching the end of the first week of my crime novel SEVEN ANGELS out in the world.

The book’s gotten great blurbs and online reviews. I think you’ll enjoy meeting this group of allies trying to save their town and a Ukrainian girl.

@KMWriter01 My sympathies. This is a great pic. ❤️

Plainly, it is ALL ABOUT ME day on the Internet. SEVEN ANGELS was published today and here's an interview I did with Cold Caller about writing and readers and other stuff.

[Gabino Iglesias @Gabino_Iglesias]

Saw this today. Perfect way to say good morning!

[michelle kubitz (she/her) @shelkubitzwrite]

Ha. That message was from **me**. Seriously, this book is so good. Small town secrets, characters you want to know IRL, and layers of relevant social issues. Get this in your life!

[Keith Roysdon @keithroysdon]

It's pub day for SEVEN ANGELS, my Southern crime novel.

An early reader sent me a message just now:

"I hope you're gonna tell me this is the first in a series."

You can get it anywhere, including here:

Since we don't take any money from corporate PACs, we have to get creative to keep raising money the clean way:

It’s a problem when parents and teachers can’t afford basic school supplies, and when students show up hungry on Mondays because there wasn’t enough food at home.

I’m proud to have the support of the National Education Association as we fight for Minnesota’s working families.

I was a SNAP kid. Now I'm running for Congress against the guy who gutted SNAP.

[michelle kubitz (she/her) @shelkubitzwrite]

So, the best part about going with Jake to these events is meeting our neighbors. Then it's listening to Jake talk about how his experience & how listening to our neighbors will guide him in DC.

Finally, the event organizers are some of the finest cooks & bakers in the US. 💙

[Jake Johnson @JakeJohnsonMN]

Thanks to the folks in Houston for coming out for the fall working families social today! I appreciated hearing about your concerns and discussing how we can make life more affordable in southern Minnesota.

[michelle kubitz (she/her) @shelkubitzwrite]

Elect more educators. 📚

I’m Jake Johnson. I’m a math teacher and a union leader running for Congress in MN-01.

I’m taking on Congressman Brad Finstad, who takes millions from big corporations and then votes to help them.

I’m taking no corporate PAC money, because I work for you.

[michelle kubitz (she/her) @shelkubitzwrite]

Powerful letter from Jake. And he brings up some good points / questions. Particularly... where's Finstad?

[Jake Johnson @JakeJohnsonMN]

Happy National Farmers Day to all the hardworking farmers across southern Minnesota!

You feed the country and the world, and you deserve elected leaders who work just as hard as you do.
