Excited to be doing the final edits of my #solarpunk novel after a two month hiatus while I was sick. I can’t wait to share this story of hope, sustainable living, community . . . And a touch of cosmic horror. #amwriting #writingcommunity #editing #hopepunk

It turned out to be much worse than I thought, and I ended up taking another turn and having to go to the hospital. After finding out I had a bleeding ulcer, I finally began to heal. So now I’m back to writing once or twice a week. Not much, but it’s something. Thank you for asking!

Finally on the mend from one of the worst illnesses in my life. At one point I was so dehydrated I hallucinated. I’m not the type to turn dreams into books, but every experienced can be mined. #authorlife #illness #lifeasart #gladtobebetter

You can be an independent writer/publisher. This path is becoming more salient as technology advances. What you want to accomplish is really up to you. Most likely your publishing path will be complicated, annoying and bumpy as hell. Wear thick boots.

I’m in the next stage of #editing and really enjoying the feedback I’m getting from alpha readers. Especially about the scenes and passages they think should be moved around. I’m excited for the next round of edits. #writingcommunity #indieauthor #solarpunk

I often find myself curbing my speech in public, but today I had the pleasure of having an open and honest conversation with my wife’s friends. We aligned in our values and speech, and it was so refreshing. #yourcircleiseverything #itsnotyouversusmeitsusversuspower

Marshall Islands Launches Nationwide Universal Basic Income Program Using Digital Infrastructure Majuro, Republic of the Marshall Islands β€” November 19, 2025. The Government of the Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI) has introduced a nationwide Universal Basic Income (UBI) program, marking the...

BREAKING: Marshall Islands becomes the first country to launch a Universal Basic Income program. Every resident (about 33,000 people) will receive $200 every 3 months. This works out to being about 11% of GDP per capita. If the US did that same percentage, the UBI would be about $770/mo.

I actually struggle quite a bit with boredom due to trauma, but I have found ways to allow my mind to go into low power mode so I can allow the swirling thoughts to come together in unexpected ways. I get a lot of ideas for my novels while watching streamers play video games.
