This is where the juicy, amusing, and all-around awesome tidbits that Jim drops on Twitter will be archived. The Library of Congress does it, why not us?
DRESDEN FILES:
Phantom2448 @Phantom2448 Jan 15
@longshotauthor Just to clarify, is it still the plan to have a new Dresden this year?Jim ButcherVerified account @longshotauthor
@Phantom2448 I hope so, yes.
Samantha Aguilar @whisper_wind · Jan 25
@longshotauthor Sorry in advance! My husband has been hounding me to ask you for weeks: have you started working on Peace Talks yet? SorryJim ButcherVerified account @longshotauthor
@whisper_wind Yes.
Jim: RT @fredhicks: Double shot of @longshotauthor cover art: Ghost Story and Side Jobs: http://bit.ly/by0Jvj
LugD213: @Longshotauthor No glove? Is that significant?
Jim: @LugD213 It is accurate. 
Jim: By the way, my fantasy casting for Morgan: Clancy “the Kurgan” Brown!
RobJDurand: @longshotauthor I can see that casting. Adam Baldwin I could see too though I did just watch Firefly so I’m jaded I suppose. Smiley
Jim: @RobJDurand Adam Baldwin was actually one of the finalists for Dresden in the TV show. Paul was considered edgier, Adam more bulldog-like.
Jim: By the way, my fantasy casting for Morgan: Clancy “the Kurgan” Brown!
mexicantt @longshotauthor As he is now, or when he was younger? And now I have to ask, who are your fantasy actors for Murphy and Harry?
Jim: @mexicantt As he is NOW. Did you see him in Lost? That’s a friggin’ PERFECT Morgan.
FitzMelech: @longshotauthor Is Rashid the mad Arab Abdul Alhazred?
Jim: @FitzMelech He’s the guy who took /down/ AlHazred.
FitzMelech: @longshotauthor That makes Rashid, if possible, even more badass than I thought!
Jim: @FitzMelech Rashid is, by far, the most dangerous of the Senior Council. Which is not the same thing as most powerful. Smiley
LugD213: @Longshotauthor Any chance that youre gonna be wacked out enough to tweet some Ghost Story spoilers?
Jim: @LugD213 Why not. Smiley It begins immediately on the heels of Changes. Like the transition from Back to the Future 2 to BttF 3.
LugD213: @Longshotauthor How soon are we talking? Immediately after Aftermath, or maybe during?
Jim: @LugD213 Immediately-immediately. Like, there’s a train coming at him. Smiley
theliz13: @longshotauthor Your fans respectfully request that you get the faerie queens to stop messing with the weather! PLEASE!
Jim: @theliz13 Whaddayoo, nuts? Ain’t nobody can give those people orders.
mlvalentine: @longshotauthor Hearing fan speculation and seeing comments on our review about how many books are left in the series. Can you clarify?
Jim: @mlvalentine 20ish, yep. Though I’m a couple behind where I thought I’d be, so it might be 21 or 22 before we get to the capstone bit.[/url]
Jim: Honestly, I don’t get it. Cliffhangers are when you DON’T know what happens.
Jim: I stand by my earlier reasoning. Not a cliffhanger when you know the outcome.
Jim: And I make the first concealed quote from book 13, GHOST STORY, baZING.
ydnam: @longshotauthor you have far too much fun toying with your fans, don’t you?
Jim: @ydnam It’s like a drug.
Jim: The title? Implying something? Would I do that to you guys? 
Jim (on Changes): Dear reader: MWOO HAH HAH HAH HAAAAAAHHHH! That is all.
Hellflwr: @longshotauthor Begging for a pre-skull Bob story. Even a short one. Or, you know, a whole series…Dont make me cast dominate..
Jim: @Hellflwer Well…. there /was/ no pre-skull Bob. The only question is whose skull he was in originally, before he got his own.
Quote from: Zachary Ready @DeusSolisQuestion among my @HarriedWizard RPG group for @longshotauthor : would changelings be sterile? and if not how would the genetics work?
Quote from: Jim Butcher @longshotauthor@DeusSolis @HarriedWizard No, not at all. And cautiously.
@DeusSolis @HarriedWizardQuote from: Zachary Ready @DeusSolis@longshotauthor @HarriedWizard So a half-elf changeling could have kids that when exposed 2 faerydom, child could exhibit faery qualities?
Quote from: Jim Butcher @longshotauthor@DeusSolis @HarriedWizard Yeah, though they’d need more exposure the wider the generation gap was. It would be impractical at some point.
James Burnell @SuperSnapper61 Feb 10:
@longshotauthor is it possible for the Erlking to create a Wyld Knight or some equivalent?Jim Butcher @longshotauthor:
@SuperSnapper61 Engh. He could feasibly take a part of his own power and fashion a new mantle from it. Much weaker than the WK though.Jim Turnage @jim_turnage Feb 12:
@longshotauthor Wait, Mab as strong as she is despite wrapping enough of her power together to make a Mantle?! Or someone else made it…The Honorable Dennis @den_down_unda Feb 12:
@jim_turnage @longshotauthor I’m guessing the fact that there are three Queens to a single King of the Wild Fae has something to do with it.Jim Butcher @longshotauthor Feb 13:
@den_down_unda @jim_turnage The Erlking is simply not on the same scale of power as Mab, though he could probably hand Molly her head.
@therealcarew:
@longshotauthor Hey Jim, can I ask a DF question? What were the Knights of the Cross doing during the Crusades?@longshotauthor:
@therealcarew Trying to bring them to an end@therealcarew:
@longshotauthor As unaffiliated but superpowered mediators, like the Jedi? Or was there supernatural ass that needed kicking?@longshotauthor:
Well, Saladin was one for a while…
CODEX ALERA:
EpeeBill: @longshotauthor I’m reading Princeps Fury and last night I got to Gaius’s ‘I look outside my window’ speech. Awesome soliloquy.
Jim: @EpeeBill Thanks. Gaius was an extremely fun character to write. I wish I could have given him more screen time.
BeeGirlBlue: Headline: Calderon Against AZ Law – Me: Shit. Tavi’s pissed and he’s gonna come at Brewer like she’s the Vord Queen. Blame @longshotauthor
Jim: @BeeGirlBlue I think the Octavian Administration would have put Varg in charge of the border long since.
priscellie: @longshotauthor Not that the Alerans have to deal with illegal immigration anyway.
Jim: @priscellie Are you kidding? They’ve got this whole issue with Vordian-alerans and everything!
studliestmuffin: @longshotauthor What exactly could i compare a gargant to in real life? I having a terrible time picturing them in my head.
Jim: @studliestmuffin A megatherium (http://bit.ly/a7wHmR) is pretty close to a gargant.
indigohaze: @longshotauthor Feelings on the map being higher bid than the book right now?
Jim: @indigohaze ALERA FOR THE BOOBIES!
FANDOM:
heynonnymouse: @longshotauthor How does it feel to go to a reading/appearance, and see all kinda people dressed up like Harry, staff, leather duster & all?
Jim: @heynonnymouse It’s a bit odd. I mean, I don’t know how to react other than to feel geekjoy. Which is just not professional. Smiley
TamarBatAvraham: @longshotauthor @ShannonKButcher Have you guys seen this? http://www.geekyclean.com/product/bob-the-skull
Jim: @TamarBatAvraham Oh, Bob WISHES he could be a bar of soap!
CASHY MONEY:
YevP: @longshotauthor Was at the library, tryin to wet Changes, and they only had an audio book, what do you get more $$ for? paper or tape?
Jim: @YevP I’d have to check way too many documents to be sure, but I’m fairly confident that it basically makes no nevermind to me.
WRITING:
Kat Richardson (author of the Greywalker novels): Sometimes I even forget character names.
Jim: @katrchrdsn I have occasionally forgotten that a given character was DEAD.
Kat: @longshotauthor yes, but in our genre, dead is not so much of a barrier….
mexicantt: @longshotauthor If a major disaster struck Chicago, would you change anything in your Dresden storyline to include or reflect it?
Jim: @mexicantt Almost certainly. I try to incorporate world events into my thinking, at least. Like that sinkhole in Guatemala!
MISCELLANEOUS:
Iago: @longshotauthor “So what would you do with the oil spill, Mr. Butcher?” “Hmm, I’d get a crew of Knights Aqua in here… Or maybe Carlos?”
Jim: @fredhicks Nuke it from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.
myyrdneopia: @priscellie I quote @longshotauthor: “Nuke it from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.”
Jim: @myyrdneopia Actually, I’m sort of hoping that they ask Cameron to use Big Geek to carry the bomb down to the leak. Because, irony.
theliz13: @longshotauthor Thats the problem with people. They hear ‘nuke’ and think Hiroshima. Suitcase nukes are much more specific. :->
Jim: @theliz13 Yeah. Nuclear reactors always draw screams of Chyernob… Cherno… Chair-Noble. But they’ve gotten much more stable since then.
Jim: Chernobyl, dammit! I KNEW I would remember it if I tried it enough times.
westonian: I once said of Joss Whedon “He’s an absolute bastard and I love him for it.” I now say the same of @longshotauthor. Fantastic storytelling.
Jim: @westonian Hi praise! Thank you!
MargoEve: After finishing his latest book, I’m nominating @longshotauthor for the “Whedon, You BASTARD!” award for this year.
Jim: @MargoEve High praise indeed! Thank you!
Jim: Okay. Gonna walk around a bit and maybe hunt for a Hershey’s bar.
Shinga_the_Jedi (author of Head Trip webcomic): @longshotauthor If you’re going to go candy hunting, at least hunt for something GOOD 
Jim: @Shinga_the_Jedi Giving me geekgasms by doing a Dresden Files comic is no reason for you to be walking on the Hershey bar!
Shinga_the_Jedi: @longshotauthor … One of my favorite ever authors read my comic and had a geekasm. Best birthday present EVER. (Hershey still sucks <3)
Jim: @Shinga_the_Jedi Oh, I fired it off to my editor and agent too. Proof that the Dresden Files are going viral!
Jim: Perfection: RT @rdonoghue: American Airlines – Because you thought it would be faster than driving. Sucker.
