I don't usually find writing easy, but it was such a pleasure to write about my love story in LOST & FOUND. Order a copy from @eastcitybooks for your sweetheart for Valentine's Day and I'll personalize it for you. https://t.co/xfhyMKXFLh https://t.co/6BtLmE7hG0

I've been loving @cncep's running commentary on DEVIL HOUSE, the new book by John Darnielle of the @mountain_goats, and strongly encourage everyone to zoom in to hear them discuss it at @PoliticsProse on Friday: https://www.politics-prose.com/event/book/pp-live-john-darnielle-devil-house-casey-cep

1) This @magiciansbook backstory on Delia Owens, author of the mega bestseller “Where the Crawdad Sings,” is fascinating and disturbing and I can’t believe it’s gone mostly unremarked until now. https://t.co/z43Tc90ykA

Eudora Welty on a beloved book from her childhood: “It may only have words of one syllable, but one of them is ‘quoth.’” (I’d never read “One Writer’s Beginnings” & so picked it up in situ in Jackson. It’s so wonderful, especially on listening, thinking, & reading while young.)

Highly recommended: "Profiles in Ignorance," a new book by @BorowitzReport. Can't remember the last time I read something so maddening that was also so hilarious. Also, it is diagnostically astute about the rise of ignorance in American politics.

The one by @cncep is this spectacularly comic and interesting piece on Charles Portis (of "True Grit" fame), which opens like this and only gets funnier: "It was a source of some annoyance to Charles Portis that Shakespeare never wrote about Arkansas." https://t.co/uYlNFRLc6U

2) On Monday, 5/2, I'll be at @Powells, Portland's enormous & wonderful indie bookstore, to discuss LOST & FOUND and heaven knows what else with the brilliant & hilarious Karen Russell, of SWAMPLANDIA! (et al) fame. It will be raucous & fun (& free). Info: https://t.co/RTgW1skraP

“The Art Thief”, like its title character, has confidence, élan, and a great sense of timing. It is propelled by suspense and surprises, and it is neither ashamed of nor stingy with the fundamental emotional payoffs of the heist…Nor does it hesitate…to bring down the boom.
