Had the chance to read an advance copy of Eminence Front by @rebecca-rowland.bsky.social and it’s a damn solid piece of horror. The perfect book to read as the snow piles threateningly outside.

I feel the clients now using GenAI to do stuff and going "good enough" when they used to nitpick at every last detail is due to them finding out all those nit picky changes take time and work they cant be bothered to put in.

Following Jesse’s lead it would be also satisfying for my brain if the Pixel Lit youtube hit 500 before the year was out:

Man the 40k Primarchs had some nominative determinism ass names in terms of hero/villain. You got your Rogal Dorns and Leman Russes on one side and Stabby McSkullfucker on the other.

It was a big year for writing, less so for publishing, but I’m damn proud of what’s out (and currently eligible for fabulous awards and prizes).

So here’s my obligatory eligibility post!

We’ve got a very special episode for you this week, but you’re gonna have to wait til Thursday for it!

So be patient, Marshies: it’ll be worth the wait.

Hint: it’s got something to do with video games!

This weekend, the belt in my dryer snapped. I figured I’d replace it when Graham was napping.

HOWEVER my son decided against a nap. My wife wasn’t home, so I repaired the dryer in 8 minute intervals. Why? Because episodes of Bluey are about 8 minutes long, and Disney Plus doesn't autoplay them.

As a horror writer, I highly recommend moving to an area that scares the spit out of you early in the morning. Also, at night.

Apparently Ghislaine’s horse was named Bubba and I can’t believe more hay isn’t being made of this.
