Hi all, I'm Chris!

And at the risk of spoiling... well, absolutely nothing... here's my WIP in emojis: πŸ₯¦πŸ—‘️πŸͺ¦πŸ”πŸ§›β€β™€οΈπŸ‘ΆπŸΊπŸ˜±

01.03.2026 19:55 β€” πŸ‘ 6    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Hopefully, Z can play. He and Dejounte out there will help a lot.

Oh absolutely. I had high hopes for him to be a quality role player, but he's exceeded those hopes in every way.

01.03.2026 05:07 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Ugly game we should've put away in the third, and the Jazz obviously didn't want to win given that they again sat their star in the 4th, but a W is a W.

Good play at different times out of Bryce, Fears, Karlo, Bey, and Herb.

01.03.2026 05:06 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

The bench backcourt should be anchored by Fears & Bryce. They've earned the primary non-starter minutes.

01.03.2026 04:45 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 1    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Yeah, I just don't think he is a good fit for whatever reason. He can be a difference maker on a team. Maybe just not this one.

01.03.2026 04:56 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

That was a no no no no yes! 3 by Fears.

01.03.2026 04:55 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

How was that not a foul?! Bailey grabbed Bey as he went by!

01.03.2026 04:46 β€” πŸ‘ 3    πŸ” 1    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

And then Fears gets elbowed and gets a foul for it.

01.03.2026 04:48 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Huge 3 by Herb.

Poole sat and things started clicking again. It's not a 1:1 correlation, but there's a reason he's -10 in a game where we're up 15.

01.03.2026 04:39 β€” πŸ‘ 2    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 1

Bryce has been one of our only steady hands all night.

01.03.2026 04:36 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Travel, double dribble, reach, hack. Guess nothing's going to get called.

01.03.2026 04:22 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Please sit Poole.

01.03.2026 04:20 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

George has the SGA whistle. Run into someone, push off, and they get called for a foul.

This has been absurd.

I'm not sure the baby curling on display during the Utah jazz halftime show should be strictly legal. πŸ˜‚

That was a hell of a quarter without Zion.

Herbs like Nah, I'll just start hitting the 3s instead.

01.03.2026 03:40 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

More cuts, fewer 3s, Herb.

01.03.2026 03:28 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 1

Followed by another Poole turnover. Ugh.

01.03.2026 03:21 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Jordan Poole has had an extremely rough stretch of live ball turnovers and bad shots

It's really nice to see Yves back out there. Great pass by DQ too.

Karlo playing well enough, but Queen, Fears, and Poole together is just asking for trouble.

I love Herb, but neither of those threes looked like they were going in from the start.

100k Books A minor milestone to some, a rounding error to others, but a number I never thought I'd reach as an indie author: 100k books sold.

As February winds down, I've got a new status update on Godswar, news on that forthcoming Kickstarter for the Red Right Hand collector's edition hardcover, and a really, really big number to share. πŸ₯³

Even for a short month, I didn't make as much progress as I'd wanted. More family health issues have popped up and there's been a fair bit of stressful waiting.

I'm ~25% into Godswar, which means I really have to crank things up in March if I'm going to hit my deadline.

Operation Small Dick Energy was already taken, apparently.

WIP status: It's complicated.

(Not really. I'm just drafting. And very behind. For reasons that are only partly my fault. Look... it's complicated. πŸ˜‚)

All my coworkers who normally produce shitty work are telling me how great AI is in helping them still produce shitty work.
