From Booklist Online: Laugh all you want, but comedy is an art form. It takes skill to land jokes and coax chuckles from an audience. These novels, reviewed between January 2025 and September 2026, go for the funny bone and invariably hit their marks. booklistonline.com/products/98307…

Just signed nearly 4,000 tip-ins so that lucky fans will be able to get autographed copies of my new graphic novel, Aren Anime: The New Realm, which comes out March 2, 2027! It’s the first of a exciting new three-book series. Can’t wait for U to see it! #graphicnovels #knicksin5

Saw SpiderMan in 3D at @EpicTheatresInc in Orlando. Realized it was not in 3D after about 20 mins. But since no one complained until after the movie. “There was nothing they can do” even though we paid for 3D. Oh well.
