As I have noted in the past, Twitter is great for me as an author less because it connects me to my audience and sells books (which it does!) and more because it lets me hangout digitally, by-proxy, with a bunch of other penmonkeys doing their penmonkey thing. Sometimes those authors talk. Sometimes Sam Sykes is involved.
This is one of those times.

Well, that wasn’t the read I was expecting. But that’s okay because I really enjoyed it anyway.

This is officially the only thing that needs to exist on the Internet. The rest of us can just quit now.
