Lee Schneider On How To Create Compelling Science Fiction and Fantasy Stories | by Kristin Marquet | Authority Magazine | Jan, 2026 | Medium I always try to write first thing in the morning, because if I don’t get to it then, I won’t get to it at all.

Nice work: I'm featured in Authority Magazine, talking about writing, creativity, and getting up in the morning early (sometimes).

This has always been a Bluesky-first campaign. But as of today, we will no longer be using Twitter. At all.

And I'm calling on other candidates to follow suit.
