So excited to announce that my debut novel, The Catch, has published! Links to order in the next tweet!
I'm looking for people to chat about Chad Harbach's The Brightness with - let me know if/when you read it! The Art of Fielding conversation also welcome. Chad is of the great writers of this 26-year-old century.

If you have jury duty in Los Angeles, you call in the night before to see if you have to go in the next day. Would you expect to be told to come in on December 23?

In the excitement over the 2024 World Series champion Los Angeles Dodgers (!), I missed the first anniversary of the publication of my novel, "The Catch." I'm going to do some promotion this week with the goal of promoting some anniversary sales.
The international language of baseball!
Hear ALL the amazing calls of Freddie Freeman's historic grand slam that ended Game 1 of the #WorldSeries 🎙️
