Hey, thanks, Green Apple in San Fran, readers, and @colinwinnette.bsky.social for a great sold out Absolution event tonight! (Thanks to @sallyfisherprice.bsky.social for photos.)

The absolute best time!

reading a great book by our buddy @colinwinnette.bsky.social (who was wonderful at our SF reading) but the main character is named Miles and i keep shaking my head and saying “I would never do that”

graphic for the event, with a headshot of maris kreizman and the cover image for I WANT TO BURN THIS PLACE DOWN.

On Tuesday, 7/8, at 7:00PM, the brilliant and hilarious @maris.bsky.social joins us to discuss I WANT TO BURN THIS PLACE DOWN, a timely and righteous essay collection about how everything is broken. She'll be in conversation with @colinwinnette.bsky.social. Join us! www.booksmith.com/event/kreizm...

Thanks, Steve!!! I hope you’re doing well!

Thanks, Adam!!!

Independent Bookstore Day is this Saturday! Join us for morning beverages to help you browse, free tarot readings, a jewelry pop-up, and an author happy hour—bartending by Daniel Handler & @colinwinnette.bsky.social—supporting @booksnotbans.bsky.social!

Order: booksmith.com/search/site/...

Questions: orders@booksmith.com

This holiday, order any Winnette book from local indie bookstore @booksmith.bsky.social’s website, & I’ll sign it + gift you a copy of THE INVENTION OF MOREL (on me!).

Shop indie and get a great, weird book (a huge influence on USERS) for free! Just leave a note in your order asking for Morel. 🎁

Ummmmm, yes!

Here's your daily reminder that bookstores keep the love of reading alive — but they also keep neighborhoods beautiful. They are places to gather, to celebrate stories, to find community.

Please do your holiday shopping at your local independent bookstore, if you are lucky enough to still have one.

Hahaha!

Some news to start the day! My first foray into non-fiction will involve spending an inordinate amount of time with a film I grew up spending an inordinate amount of time with…

Thanks to @BloomsburyPub and Nic Rombes!
