Pho cafe, I love you, but even after all these years, I feel you don’t really know me.

New favorite joke:

Customer walks into a bar, and the bartender says, “Why the long face?”
Oh, and also the customer is a horse.

*Elliott Kalan.

It’s an example of setup for an unfunny joke, but it’s hysterical to me because it subverts expectation that a worn out joke be told correctly.

Think I could write CrossFit smut?

“She wanted to do lip pushups off his face and air squats on his hips.”

I suspect the answer is “No.”

If I rerecorded my voicemail greeting to just say, “Stop,” would that reduce robocalls?

I’m guesting on the reviewx2podcast (The Review Review) next month to talk about the movie Being John Malkovich.

I’m curious if there are other podcasts that would like to have me and my six-book series as guests.

Tips!? Recs?

I love this time of year: dried leaves, spices, hot cider, baseball playoffs…and Halloween.

I wrote this over a year ago, but it fits the season.

So few people see these posts. If you’d like to be on my email list for future books and events (literally only a couple a year), please DM me your email address.

Love you!

I love when the ‘Zon puts one of my books on a sale price. Maybe it’s due to increased traffic from Horror Con?

Too-skinny, baby Rob, early 90s, and 50 lbs lighter.

Also, I forgot that shirt existed.

“I’m whore.”

Is that about me or the barista?

It actually stands for Irishman Mocha w whole milk. But that’s not fun.

So cool! I received an awesome crystal-inlaid coffin gift from a friend who is reading The Omnist series.

She’s now on book five, Wide-Eyed Wyatt’s Liquid Nap. Saw this, thought of Coffin Club. Sent.

Thank you!

Social media crap I disregard completely or block:

"Let that sink in"

My comprehension is top level.

"Wait for it"

I watch 100% but that one triggers a block.

"I don't know who needs to hear this, but"

Get the f off your soapbox. Let people figure things out. Blocked, too.

If writing makes me happy (it does!), then I shouldn’t be disappointed that I haven’t achieved a million sales and reads yet.

Stress is the enemy of my happiness.

Revising my 7th novel. Not much about balancing vibes, exposition, and action gets easier.

Despite thickened skin for editor’s notes over time, the problems she highlights still reach my core.

When I hear a song where the vocals are loud, too upfront, I just picture the singer’s fat head, all face, right in front of me, obstructing tiny images of the rest of the band.

Safe to say I’m not a fan.

Vocabulary of the Omnist universe, part V:
What is Coffin Club?
An event where Consumerians (often terminally ill) build their own bespoke coffins and caskets.

Paint birds on it. Airplane cockpit. Dodger blue with LA logos. A lifesize skeleton.
