Wow. Check out this scary story by Chuck Augello in @wallstrait.bsky.social . This will by in my dreams tonight.

This was a wonderful read.

Haha! My parents, not me. I can’t even commit to a hair color!

Sometimes a story you wrote lands in exactly the right place. That's how I feel about "Keepsake" landing in @cowboyjamboree in their new issue Hidden Behind the Door that Sorrow Locked.

A fantastic story. My step-dad died of complications from Agent Orange so this story hit me extra hard. I think this is a great example of spec fiction addressing issues & heartbreak in a way realism can't reach.

Ooh, how can I hear it?
