Con tabling always makes me feel like I used to be an adventurer like you, and then I took an arrow to the knee

Booth 318. All random question were free. They are now 50-60 percent off.

Like good old-fashioned pirates me and @beansbaker5.bsky.social have commandeered Roi Faineant Press’s empty table and we’re slinging books. Come by and buy one! Please, I have a child! #awp26

Me and @chrisstevenson.bsky.social will be manning down the fort. Come for the literary tarot, stay for the JAKE!

Tonight at Club Charles, 7 p.m.

It is the last day of the book fair and I hope everyone had/is having a great time and bought a lot of books, not just ours, but hopefully some of ours.

My favorite picture from last night. These guys aren't just wonderful writers, they're also just so warm and so encouraging and super endearing. A lot of fun to hang out with.

Thank you Malarkey crew for letting me crash the function!

AWP Day 2!

I wonder if kristi noem got fired because of the godawful commercials

Yall ever just lay down

The one and only @joshuatrentbrown.com blowing everyone away post-intermission

A bunch of us are going to the cowboy jamboree/malarkey reading in a couple hours! Come through!

fake barrelhouse university "MFA degrees" to use as prizes at the Barrelhouse AWP conference booth

At @barrelhouse.bsky.social University we care about education, and that's why we will be conferring these MFA degrees next week to lucky wheel-spinning degree-seeking participants at Booth 1185 at the AWP Bookfair. The children are our future, even the poets.

Every time I see people praising the movie Weapons I feel like I didn't watch the same movie??? Like, I thought it was aggressively mid? They literally had a giant floating AR-15 over the one not missing kid's house at one point. It doesn't get much more on the nose than that

Oh man that whiskey drink was stronger than it looked. Ordered a second one before the first one kicked in, and still finished #2. Feeling pretty relaxed for being at an airport lol

Overpriced, but not bad for airport fare!

Officially omw to AWP

I'll have some sympathy for the bots when they're paying rent, not for some rich Harvard fuckers' yachts.

Lol. Was sending a text via voice control in my car, and while it was sending I started swearing under my breath due to some pretty justified road rage. The voice assistant started chiding my language lmao. "I may be an AI assistant, but your words still..."
