| 1638424195926315009 | @bclark_cgchar @MrsTad @tadwilliams Thankfully, @tadwilliams is THAT one #author who cares enough for his fans to include a helpful "the story so far" recap at the beginning of each volume. Of the hundreds of authors I've read, not one of them has been so thoughtful towards their waiting audience. | 2 |

| 1640761336694181891 | Into the Narrowdark was incredible. Some of the best fantasy characters I've read in a world I love. The story cohesion was brilliant. The entire Osten Ard saga just gets better and better. I can't wait to see where @tadwilliams takes us in this next one. https://t.co/dLLXm0sDLC | 1 |

| 1638216584505475072 | 1 blocked me when I said to their DM, 'No. Duuh.' Then I got polite: 'No DMs'. That 1 blocked me too. Suspect some real rip-off artists at work. I'm tired of it so I'm blocking all of them from @tadwilliams, & will probably block here too #editing #writing #bookpromotion #reviews https://t.co/mlsPkwJzAC | 13 |
