Two new interviews about THE GATEPOST
OverDrive & Libby feature THE GATEPOST
This one comes as a very pleasant surprise. OverDrive, the leading digital reading platform for libraries and schools (my agent calls it “one of the hidden behemoths of publishing”), has featured THE GATEPOST on their Libby Life blog, in a post titled “What is Speculative Fiction? Here’s what it means (and what to read first).” The Libby app allows users to borrow e-books, audiobooks, and…
The Toronto Star reviews THE GATEPOST
Thrilled to report that Alex Good of the Toronto Star has reviewed The Gatepost! It’s part of a monthly round-up, and is syndicated to appear in a bunch of other regional Canadian newspapers as well. Given the origins of the novel, which I’ve talked about here and here, for example, this is by far my favorite line: “The doors of perception are opened wide in Tim Weed’s latest.” —Toronto…
THE GATEPOST featured in three Vermont newspapers

We talked about my novel THE GATEPOST, its Vermont setting, the origin of its characters, psilocybin, dreams and hallucinations in fiction, and much more. My gratitude to Mikaela and the show’s producer, Jon Ehrens, for their hospitality and professionalism. You…
Kirkus reviews THE GATEPOST
It’s always touch-and-go when it comes to the big trade publications that specialize in forthcoming books. Will they review the book, and if so, will the review be positive? It’s quite important too, because these publications are influential with librarians and booksellers, and can be leading indicators regarding the potential success of new books out in the marketplace. Kirkus reviewers in…
The Colorado Sun kicks off early media coverage for THE GATEPOST with book excerpt, audio & print interviews
My sincere gratitude to Kevin Simpson and the The Colorado Sun for their early interest in THE GATEPOST, launching May 26, 2026! In addition to the podcast, The Sun published an excerpt of the novel’s first chapter and a wide-ranging print interview in which we talked about Oaxaca and the inspiration for the novel, the writing process, Mesoamerican shamanism, hallucinogenic mushrooms, the…
