I write a lot abt outliers. Debuts that land 7-figs; books that break sales records. This story, abt the 20-year partnership bw @AtriaBooks & @WmKentKrueger, is a glimpse into how this biz actually works & the persistence it takes to make it as an author: pw-ne.ws/f9a05

NY Journal of Books: "What is the cost of vengeance? How far is someone willing to go to both survive and seek revenge? These are weighty questions in Brad Thor’s new Scot Harvath thriller, one of his best." shar.es/a0IOln

"I skew slightly male in my body counts, but gender is normally a secondary consideration"—@MejiaWrites, author (not serial killer), in a fascinating discussion with other leading ladies of crime fiction, led by @HannahMMcKinnon (via @KillerNashville) killernashville.com/a-discus…

On this day in 1872, Chicago’s Common Council passed an ordinance establishing the Chicago Public Library. Our first location was in a water tank, which was fitting after the Great Fire of 1871 destroyed much of the city. #cplspecialcollections ow.ly/F4vX30ofmZe

Not sure of the infraction that kept @bsego's review of OVERWATCH by @MatthewBetley from being accepted—perhaps its because he clearly wrote 6-star worthy praise when 5-stars are the max. Regardless, we'll just RT until enough people end up seeing it anyway!
Amazon did not accept this review of @MatthewBetley's "Overwatch". I don't understand. Though I see a typo, ("day" vs "die") I can't find any term I've violated. In addition, there's no recourse. Amazon says I can't ever submit a review for the book now, even a DIFFERENT review.

The crazy thing about @BradThor is that he's one of the very best to ever do it, and yet I don't think we've seen his best yet. Other giants—Clancy, Ludlum, le Carre—all peaked at some point. Thor hasn't, he just gets better and better. BACKLASH is going to be special! #Harvath
