Revisited: Cacophony in B Minor Digging into my fiction archives. A personal favorite.

RIP Washington Post. Democracy dies in capitulation. #WaPo

Have a good Saturday night, all. Be safe. ☮️💙🎶✌🏻🕊️

We’re all angry and worried and maybe some don’t feel like creating or no longer feel like it matters, but keep writing, painting, dancing, making music, making art. Not doing the things that bring you joy—not making art—doesn’t help. Do what you love harder than ever.

Hello wife!

Revisiting some of my old fiction.

The dream ending is the biggest cop out without question. I dislike non-endings, when there is no conclusion to any story elements. Yes, I get the concept of life goes on, but it’s doing disservice to the reader’s investment in the story. Rushed endings are frustrating, too.

Turning the Bitter and Sour to Sweet and Savory Looking back at a strange and creatively unproductive year.

Happy holidays!

It's Been A Warm, Sunny Minute Checking in from a sort-of midlife crisis.

I wrote about my recent life change.

I never knew this was a thing until tonight.

This sounds interesting.

I need this reminder regularly.

It’s a great space. Reminds me of the early Twitter days, but better.

This is Not the Moment to Give Up Logging off was healthy. But it's time to re-engage.

This piece from @sykescharlie.bsky.social is essential reading at this moment.

Everyone take the time to internalize its message.

No more doom replies. No more 'anticipatory obedience'. No more 'Eeyorism'. No more 'premature capitulation'.

We FIGHT.

In near Disney World now. Your story about those characters in the tunnels lurks in my brain.

Not too stressful. We’re much happier here in warmth with no snow and ice on the way.

Doing well, thanks. Spent a good part of the past year editing a book and relocating. I’ve been dormant here for awhile, but getting back to it.

Ladies, gentlemen, and nonbinary folks, here’s your next Attorney General.

Hey @morganktanner.bsky.social - great to see you on here! How are things?

I haven’t been on here in a while. Should be interesting.

It's Like Screaming Into an Echo Chamber with Poor Acoustics Trying to write amidst our current cultural chaos is just chaotic.

Aspirations During the Week of Nothingness Dead Week, Feral Week, No Man's Land Week ... whatever you like to call it, it's strange and counterproductive.

A new Substack post on my aspirations during the Week of Nothingness.

Time to Begin Anew Complacency is the artist’s death sentence.

Kicking off my Substack! #writing

Nice!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Remember - today is about being thankful for all that you have, no matter how little. Appreciation and gratitude go a long way, much more so than a giant meal centered around an overstuffed turkey and its subsequent five-pound gain.

Today is the day -Christmas and Other Horrors is out with all new stories by a host of great writers!
