I'm thrilled to be part of @Narratively's collaboration with @cnfonline on the magic and destructiveness of water with a personal essay/reported feature on why people who get flooded often choose to remain in their homes. Please share it widely and ask @Raffi_RC to do the same!
Well, we’ve done it again! Another collaboration with @cnfonline that we’re super proud of and excited for. This time we’ve got a series exploring the shape-shifting magic and destructiveness of water in all its forms. Check it out. narratively.com/p/the-ever-p… 1/2

Check out the infamous essay that @TonyDanza called 'the craziest cat story I've ever read.' Or maybe it wasn't Tony Danza, maybe it was Tony DanzE my former neighbor who loved cats? Hmm ... Either way, worth a read: riverpeoplerebuild.substack.…

I can speak from experience -- Mr. Finkel is incredibly generous with his responses and his advice.
lot of young writers reach out to me
most have questions about where publishing is headed & pitching & agents & audience & sales & if they should self-publish
but you know...
it's still cool to want to write the Great American Novel
go for it. just start writing

Boom! You asked for it… You got it…
After I initially announced that Generation Griffey: Rankfest was going to be a digital-only book, about a dozen loyal B&B readers wrote me asking if I planned on selling a paperback.
This project is through my Meathead Media imprint, which are mostly digital books I make specifically for the Books & Biceps crew, so I hadn’t planned on it…
BUT, as the days passed, that first dozen people who asked for a paperback became a few dozen and then 50 and I stopped counting when we neared a hundred DMs and emails and social post replies asking if the book would be in print…
This led to two thoughts:
1) I am a creature of print and I loved the idea of making this available as a paperback.
2) I had an AWESOME idea for the back of the book.
Essentially, to continue the theme of the N64 video game front cover onto the spine and back… and the results are… PHENOMENAL.
Look at this. It's GLORIOUS!
Even better, I made it available today.
Right now. Order in the next post.
This is the 90s Nostalgia trip you neeeeed.
If there’s anyone out there who is considering not voting, please take a few minutes to read this typo-ridden but earnest thing I wrote about why I think you can’t sit this election out and why I think Kamala Harris is the candidate we need right now: riverpeoplerebuild.substack.…

Disaster Stories Galore! is the latest edition of River People Rebuild -- and likely one of the last before a big change.

This was a really rewarding experience, and holy shit, @jessesposato and the @Narratively team are incredibly talented and hard-working. I came in with a very rough idea, and they turned it into what it is now through some truly impressive editing.
Obsessed with this series collab with @cnfonline and the first story by @JaredBilski and the artwork by @AidiRiera. Definitely worth checking out.

I’m doing a night of shows right next to my hometown, in Medford, NJ on September 28th.
6 PM will be a family friendly show and 8:00 PM will be filled with all sorts of naughty sauce.
I want to sell out in front of my kith and kin, so help me spread the word! Tix at my website!
Writers, Journalists, Comms and PR folks: What tools do you use to keep track of sources and when you last contacted them (besides spreadsheets)? Hoping @Jon_Finkel and @tomlobianco have some interesting insights here

Congrats to @JohnnyMcKeever on this. He's been making ridiculously good comedy for years, and it's good to see him finding some mainstream success
