Moving Forward in America: Reasons to Hope

Welp, that happened. Of all the possible outcomes, I never would have guessed we’d have the results the next day, and that Trump would have won both the Electoral College and the popular vote. I am on the record many (many) times saying exactly what I think about Trump and his politics, and so none […]

A New Daylight Savings Proposal

I’ve come up with plans to fix daylight savings before, but for some reason, none of them seemed to have moved the needle in terms of actually solving this crisis. Well, I’m not one to give up just because one idea doesn’t work, so I’ve been ruminating on other ways to get the problem solved, […]

Son of a Witch

We’re almost to Halloween, and we’re almost to election day, and today I’ve got some thoughts that actually tie into both. This post was sparked by a Facebook post a friend shared talking about how “History has never been kind to women especially those who are alone and those perceived as different.” A few days […]

Next Cover Reveal: Death in the Dark

Happy Monday, all! Yes, Family of Killers just came out a few months ago, but believe it or not, we’re already looking ahead to my next book release. Coming in August 2025, it’s Death in the Dark. I’d say it was my second collaboration with Erik Larson, but I’m pretty sure he has no idea […]

Prejudice and Religion

It’s been a while since I gave a talk in church (8 months, to be specific). I don’t have one coming up, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t been thinking about religion. On a drive the other day, I actually started trying to think through the relationship between prejudice and true religion. (Yes, apparently this […]

However, it’s come to our attention that some rather strange and disturbing practices have been occurring at your store, practices that require immediate attention. As you […]

Boston Book Festival

Do you live in or near Boston? Want to come by and see me speak or get a book signed? Well boy howdy do I have good news for you! I’m going to be in Boston on Saturday for the Boston Book Festival. First up is my presentation on “Not So Perfect Families,” which is […]

Book Review: In the Garden of Beasts: Love, Terror, and an American Family in Hitler’s Berlin

I have yet to read an Erik Larson book that I haven’t really enjoyed, but his In the Garden of Beasts is on a different level for me. It details the life of the American diplomat to Germany in Berlin from 1933 to 1937, showing how Germany went from a country that was still largely […]

“Movie” Review: Mr. Boogedy

One of the Halloween movies I remember really liking from childhood was Mr. Boogedy, a Disney Channel exclusive that I recall looking forward to seeing each year when October rolled around. I have since asked my siblings, and they have no recollection of this whatsoever, so maybe I just saw it on my own twice, […]

Tomas Update: Week 105(?)

Guess what? I’ve got an honest to goodness update from Tomas this week. We went for something a little different: he sent a voice recording of what happened this last week. I had it transcribed online, and I’m going to edit it to try and make it a bit more readable, but it’s all basically […]
