    Join the rebellion and help me create the indie book platform readers and authors deserve! Three hurrahs for our 897 Founding Members who keep us independent and fund new features. Readers and authors can become Founding Members (both get special perks, and more perks are coming as we grow). It has been a wild couple of months at Shepherd! I am working like a madman to reorient everything as we build an app to bring readers to-be-read piles to life (plus light book tracking).

    Join the rebellion and help me create the indie book platform readers and authors deserve! Three hurrahs for our 853 Founding Members who keep us independent and fund new features. Readers and authors can become Founding Members (both get special perks, and more perks are coming as we grow). I am super excited about 2025! I am knee-deep in feature planning and have a massive year-end update on the newsletters coming soon. I got a ton of rest over the holiday, read 10 books, and feel energized.

Readers and authors can become Founding Members (both get special perks, and more perks are coming). Google is killing independent websites by burying them in the search results, even when we perfectly follow their guidelines.

    Myfavorite read in 2024…This is one of the best detective series I’ve read since Bosch. There is something about Detective Sean Duffy that I find utterly fascinating. He has a personal sense of justice (like Bosch), and he has an intense desire to see it applied no matter the cost. And as a Catholic policeman in a Protestant system, the tension of being this one-man island is heavy. The entire series is set during "The Troubles" in Northern Ireland, which makes for an exciting backdrop.
