Your monthly reminder:

Keep writing. When no one cares, persist. When things appear to be crumbling, keep at it. When it's difficult, push through. When you feel alone, listen to the stories in your blood. Just write. The world needs you to tell your truth through your words.

Hola, amigo! Yo hablo muy poquitos espaΓ±ol, pero yo comare mucho elotes!
Probably the only thing I really miss about living in southern California is my buddy Joseph, the local elotes dude. That, and good sushi. And taco trucks.

Jawesome! Can't wait to hold my contributor's copy! This book will be my first publication for pay, and it really checked off that particular bucket list item. I want to read it again! Being a stay at home dad leaves me with very little me time, so I've been trying to write instead of read lately.

I'm sure you're sober by now, but how do you break through to your muse when you are not feeling it? I have this problem with writing. I can almost always journal, but poetry & fiction are elusive when I'm down.

You really are awesome, Jeani! This is what writers, publishers, and artists should do. Support each other. Lift one another up instead of tearing everyone else down. I couldn't be more proud that I'm being published by The Horror Zine!

Just got word from AlienBuddha Press that they have accepted an old drawing of mine for their March 2025 issue # 72! The editor wants to use it for the cover!!! I'm shocked, and delighted!

Thank you! I have been having a windfall of acceptances this week. It's kinda surreal, actually. Haha
Congratulations to you on 13 chapters! That's epic!

Haven't been able to write much more than journaling for my mental health, but I have finally been submitting some poetry around. Already got three picked up by a zine!

I have not one, but three poems being published in early 2025! More info once we get closer, and they have cover art.
I'm so excited!
