- Always when I ride to this part of Lake Champlain, as I did today, I think of the ending of THE GREAT GATSBY.
- The view from Castle Black.
- Happy Mother’s Day to all who celebrate — and hat’s off to my lovely bride (one of the world!s great moms) and our amazing daughter. They’re what this day means to me. #mothersday

- Not making the bed right now! Also? I de-coned Jesse. (Shhhhhh. Don’t tell the vet.)
- The more I watch John Mulaney owning the stage with a suit and a handheld mic, the more I love walking a room and talking books with a handheld mic. So…thank you, Wilmington, Massachusetts for hanging out with me last night. Stay tuned for the Netflix special!
- The only good news to Judge #JeaninePirro being appointed interim U.S. Attorney for Washington, DC is that maybe we'll get to see Cecily Strong return to @saturdaynightlive.bsky.social .
- A throwback Thursday to the first reading of my adaptation of MIDWIVES for the stage and — a few months later — the beautiful marquee at the George Street Playhouse. Here with three people so much more talented than I: director David Saint and actors Ann Dowd and Lou Diamond Phillips. #tbt
- Recovering from the first of two eye surgeries. The only mammals who may hate the cone as much as Jesse are Victoria Blewer and me. (Yes, it’s a soft cone. But still. Tomorrow, Jesse’s plush doughnut arrives, which isn’t recommended after eye surgery, but we’re going to try it anyway!)
- This will be a very long two weeks for my Jesse. And this was only the first of TWO eye surgeries.
- Deeply grateful to my #Vermont readers and to @sevendaysvt.bsky.social . Honored and humbled to again be a finalist. Thank you. www.sevendaysvt.com/vermont/Seve...
- My amazing Grace Experience on the fantastic ABBA tour. #prouddad
- Thank you, @writersbone.com !
- It was 250 years ago that our great experiment with democracy began. So, I read the first volume in Rick Atkinson's wonderful history of the Revolutionary War.
- The Armenian Weekly — and @khatchig.bsky.social and Pauline Getzoyan — are WAY too good to me! Thank you!
- Lazy Sunday vibes: couch potato cushion queen. #rescuedog #pitbulls
- Had so much fun chatting about THE JACKAL’S MISTRESS with the wonderful novelist, Alyson Richman, to celebrate the Port Washington Library. Speaking of wonderful novelists I met Susan Isaacs! I still have my mother’s copy of COMPROMISING POSITIONS. Nothing would have made her happier than this photo
- Had a fantastic dinner last night with my great friend Todd Doughty, who reminds me to own my life like a boss. Bonus? We saw Sunset Boulevard, and it is over the top amazing. I have never seen anything like it on Broadway: last night there were FOUR mid-musical standing ovations.
- How fantastic is Sunset Boulevard on Broadway? Four times in the middle of the show we gave it thunderous standing ovations, including this curtain call. #broadway #sunsetboulevard
- This. Is. Fantastic.
- Calendar flip!
- Thank you, @nytimes.com , for this lovely review of THE JACKAL’S MISTRESS. @doubledaybooks.bsky.social @prhaudio.bsky.social @prhlibrary.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/04/30/b...
- I think popes are supposed to be celibate and live at the Vatican. So, I think Melania is behind this one.
- Yup. I absolutely loved HAPPY LAND by the brilliant @dolenperkinsvaldez.bsky.social . You will, too! @berkleypub.bsky.social
- Color me grateful!
- Timeline cleanse — today at lunch.
