Good morning. It is 3:49am on Sunday and I am typing this from the Doubletree By Hilton in Williamsburg, VA, host of many Scares That Care charity events, including our upcoming Holiday Dance, Borderlands Boot Camp 2023, and AuthorCon II convention.
Thank you for your willingness to put so much of yourself into this, Brian. That same vulnerability is IMO what makes your books cook and what immediately yanked me into THE COMPLEX, which I blew through this weekend.
Sometimes a good, ugly cry is needed. Sounds like you needed it to me.
Thanks for the update on the kittens and for your future work at the shelter. I'm so glad that all of the kittens found new homes. Looks like that makes you happy too.
😢 Now don't you feel better? Good for you for being able to do this and share it. So many can't.
You are gonna be a great feral animal keeper. The cats were training for what you were meant to do aside from writing. I don't know about anyone else but I am looking forward to all the stories you carve out from the experience.
I so look forward to your letters each week, to let us into what is happening in your day to day world. So hoping to see you again at a signing soon have enjoyed the two previous times I have had the pleasure of meeting you. Until next week
Since Andy and I have a large adopted cat crew-rescues and foster fails, one of my favorite things about your newsletter has been how you have been such a wonderful advocate and kitty rescuer. And still a hell of a writer! But this post really struck me in the heart when you wrote about how you said in the car and you cried out of relief and also fear of all the other issues going on in your life and in the world. I feel that too. Thank you for sharing. And I’m so excited for you that you’re going to be a volunteer in January! The cat and dog rescue world needs people like you.

Thank *you*. ;-)
Love reading these early Sunday mornings. Thx for your humanity.
Thanks. <3

Absolutely. ;-)
I'm glad you'll be helping at the shelter. I do it for a living and while there are some really bad days, there are amazing days too
Thanks, Anthony. <3

Thanks for everything you do for all of us.
It'll be fun. ;-)

Good luck for the midterms... I wish for the best, and fear the worst.
