The Ninth Gate
The Witch
The Thing

Self-publishing is an exercise in humiliation, if less so than the query trenches. But even if no one ever buys or reads your book, there is something to be said for seeing your book(s) exist in the world, and holding them in your hands.

The beauty of art is that artists can disagree on method and express that disagreement by creating art.

The Brodernist nightmare: an existential novel that is less than 1,000 pages long, wasn't written a single sentence, has paragraph breaks, and even—sometimes—punctuates dialogue.

Instead of a midlife crisis, I wrote and published novels—or, they are the midlife crisis.

👍 Can't beat having a library in your pocket, and phone screens are big enough these days for it to work just fine.

I don't have a Kindle, but I've found the app to be useful on my phone.

People need art, but the industry at large now exists for itself. Art still being created outside of the industry—but people have to be willing to seek it out.

Still with the Collen Hoover ads, but maybe what they’re saying is that PLAYING GOD is as toxic as a Colleen Hoover novel, to which I must reply... True. 😅

Almost required reading for GRENDEL WEPT. Almost, but you can skate by without it if you pay attention.
