You know, at least Yzma merely had no concern if people had food. The Trump administration is now ACTIVELY PREVENTING people from having food.

I’ve determined I want the technology of the Battlestar Galactica. I want faster-than-light travel, non-networked computers, and corded phones.

My books are inherently political. I'm gay. My whole existence has been stigmatized and politicized, so I turned that into rage-and-spite-fueled writing. My series finale is ESPECIALLY political. The first chapter is a scathing indictment of the US healthcare system.

I'm. Not. Even. Fucking. Done.

Sitting in a hotel at 7:45 while eating my biscuits and gravy even I hear the dad in Poltergeist II(?) say, “Honey that wasn’t daddy in the bathroom! You know that!”

And now I’m fully awake.

BREAKING NEWS IN 2025 BE LIKE: It's terror time again! They got you running through the night. It's terrrrrorrrrr time again. And you just might die of fright! It's a terrifying time!

Just gonna say that I LITERALLY cannot think of a better way to get oodles of intel than by sending agents undercover as construction crew members during White House construction to plant a metric asston of bugs in the walls because they aren’t being properly vetted.

I spent 3 years writing The Bleeding Blue Sky with the explicit concern of a second Trump administration. If you don’t have the consent of the people you govern, you’re just a dictator. Even if I agreed with the policies, a government CANNOT function without its citizens leading.

I just applied for another book event! I love being an author! I don’t know what I’m doing! Help me, Taylor Swift, you’re my only hope! Weeee!

Motherfucking wind farms…

Some of us are coping with everything in a variety of ways. My method is by hoping to summon the Guardian of Destruction and Rebirth. Sailor Saturn…AWAKEN!!!!

Thinking about how this scene from Futurama will probably play out in the next few weeks.

Ya know, I wrote a book where the main antagonist ran for office only after his house representative resigns after it’s found out he was teaching s=% education on YouTube using sock puppets. Then he uses a supervolcano and vampires to become president.

Reality has STILL bested my creativity.

So…I wrote a complete series. It has superheroes. And a bisexual man as a MC. And Mothman. And other superheroes.

Well, the first run of the year….went. Did not enjoy. Did not pass Go. Did not collect $200.

There’s something very special when two introverts meet, and end up talking for 2 hours about how much they don’t like talking to others. That was me today.

A child at the airport was telling me about where to catch the big fish in Ocarina of Time. I was of two minds that are not mutually exclusive:

1. I’m glad that you know of the Old Ways. Well done, parents.

2. DO NOT CITE THE DEEP MAGIC TO ME

Washed, folded, and put away laundry all on a Monday. Not letting these fuckers beat me.

Still gay. Still working gay books. That’s not changing ever.

ME: Are you going to eat your toast?
COLIN: No. I’m gonna wrap it up and save it. Can you retoast bread?
ME: …..I’ve never had bread last long enough to ask that question.

Something very, very special arrived today. I can’t tell you what this means to me. It finally feels like a real series.

I’m not going to stop writing and reading books with gay characters. We exist and I’m going to create the stories I’d want to read when I was younger. 🏳️‍🌈🌈📚

The first four books of the STRIKER V series will be available soon!

The COMPLETE SERIES will be available in paperback, hardcover, AND audiobook on MARCH 14.

You know, there are times when I block a 🌽-bot will like one of my posts that I wonder...Have I just blocked a pretty girl who genuinely likes my books, thus missing out on an opportunity to have them in the background of her OF video?

Missed marketing opp right there.

So I realized that I was missing a crucial few lines from this series finale. At some point, they got jettisoned in a rewrite a while ago. I just found them lurking in a file...FROM 3 YEARS AGO.

And this is why I keep EVERYTHING that I write.

When millennials finally take over this heap (if anything is left), there needs to be an employee bill of rights:
-4 day work week (32 hours)
-Illegal to use “soft layoff” methods
-Hybrid or remote required where feasible.
-C-suite may not earn more than 6 figures.

Been thinking about this scene from The Mummy a lot for noooo particular reason.

In my final book, the main villain runs for Congress only after the seat is vacant after the rep resigns because it was discovered he had a YouTube channel for sex education.

I wrote the dumbest thing I could think of and it still doesn’t come fucking close to this week.

Is my series finale inherently political? Yes, absolutely. It is also realistic. And two of my MMCs are married and in a healthy loving relationship. It gets a touch spicy. 🌶️

Even in the darkest times, life…and love…find a way.

And yes there are also dinosaurs in this book. And Mothman.

Today I’m continuing my final read through of my superhero book about anti-authoritarianism and consent in governance. It also features Mothman and dinosaurs.

Welcome, readers.

I often struggle with my roles, whether it's work or just trying to break into writing. Despite having 5 books done, it never feels...good.

My intent during the next four years is to be a bright (if also realistic) spot, as much as I can, even when it's hardest.

One impossible thing at a time.
