incarnating ideas to avoid their wrath
Last week I watched the phenomenal Sinners (2025), and despite its decidedly welcome double helping of Michael B Jordan, as the story progressed I found myself becoming more and more dismayed. I’m working on another book (tentatively titled Razor’s Edge) set in the same oppressive southern atmosphere as Six Mile Store (obligatory pre-order link! now with Audible audiobook!). As Sinners continued,

"4.5 stars! Thank you to Deixis Press for an advanced copy of this book.

“What’s true? What’s false? In case you haven’t noticed, the world has pretty much given up on the old Enlightenment idea of piecing together the truth based on observed data. Reality is too complicated and scary for that. Instead, it’s way easier to ignore all data that doesn’t fit your preconceptions and believe all data that does. I believe what I believe, and you believe what you believe, and we’ll agree to disagree. It’s liberal tolerance meets dark ages denialism. It’s very hip right now.”
