My latest novel is Attack Surface, a sequel to my bestselling Little Brother books. @washingtonpost called it "a political cyberthriller, vigorous, bold and savvy about the limits of revolution and resistance."

My first picture book is out! It's called Poesy the Monster Slayer and it's an epic tale of bedtime-refusal, toy-hacking and monster-hunting, illustrated by Matt Rockefeller. It's the monster book I dreamt of reading to my own daughter.

@pluralistic Cory, I understand that you would like to promote your work, but would it be possible to add the standard posts at a lower frequency?

While I love your original posts, they already are a large part of my time line, with the long list of ads it is really a lot of scrolling to get to posts by others.

@VictorVenema I post a roundup thread - with a colophon - every day. recommend using keyword muting if you don't want to see them.

@pluralistic Which keyword would I have to use?

@VictorVenema Just mute phrases from any of the recurring tweets you don't want to see.

@pluralistic Okay, added four filters. I always think that when a reasonable person voices a problem there are likely more people who have it.
