Take a break from doomscrolling for me to tell you about how the theft crimes you hear about are literally the tip of the iceberg when it comes to what is actually being stolen and by whom.

GUESS WHO MADE THE INDIE LIST? I could not be more excited to have The Price of Mercy on this list---this is the *indie* list, meaning books that are selling well at real brick-and-mortar bookstores, and indie sellers online...ergo my readers are the coolest ;)

Santa Clara County Public Defenders! Today I got the deeply moving experience of walking back into the office where I began my path as a defender, and sharing The Price of Mercy with the brilliant champions moving us all closer to free and equal justice. My heart is so full.

When people run on a tough on crime platform, what are they really promising you? Nothing. They are promising you this status quo. Zero innovation. Such a pleasure to talk with Michele Storms about The Price of Mercy at @townhallseattle.bsky.social !

See you soon Mill Valley!

If you want to join the conversation, I may be headed your way, here's what's up next :-)

Sold out @powells.bsky.social last night! Huge thanks to Seth Gannon for an amazing conversation, to the Defenders of Portland for turning out, and to the crowd for asking some of the best questions I've encountered so far!

Today is pub day for The Price of Mercy. A book into which I have poured 2 years of my life and my best knowledge is starting to arrive at people's doorsteps and show up in bookstores today. It couldn't be coming at a better moment in my opinion. But let me take 2 seconds to tell you why.

Keen on America covered The Price of Mercy and I love to see stuff come out that is both snappy and correct

So this internet stranger completely made my night

"I have searched the depths of Legal Arguments not yet articulated or vetted on this subject, and will be presenting in a reputable one in the near future" is ABSOLUTELY how I'm starting my next argument in court.

Guys... a million thank yous from the bottom of my heart to those of you who ordered copies of this book and let me inscribe them to you at Keplers today!!!! If we succeed in getting this vital subject matter into the public discourse this year, it's because of your efforts and your belief.

This feels like a relevant category to be doing numbers in rn

I was asked a question about survivors of crime and their treatment in the criminal court system today...put me in mind to share a few of these shocking data points.

You guys... Amazon now has a bot summarizing books ... and apparently its key takeaway from my book is that we plant trees to reform justice I am DECEASED
