"Black monstrous claws slashed into the night sky, sending cantankerous bellows and groans as great flashes of striking light veined above the rows of cottages, lighting them up like jack-o'-lanterns."

Chicago roads are looking pretty icy, might be time for some salt. Strange for September, but you can never be too prepared.

My newest novel, Headless Season is releasing October 20th! You can pre-order the e-book or pre-order signed copies through my Shopify.

Alligator Alcatraz detainees allege inhumane conditions at immigration detention center Detainees claim they are enduring inhumane conditions, including lack of access to water, inadequate food and denial of religious rights.

1/5 🧵
Reports from inside Alligator Alcatraz echo the darkest chapters in human history- internment camps, Jim Crow chain gangs, even concentration camps - where people are isolated, devalued, and treated as less than human.

This is a moral failure. Let’s keep shining a light to stop this cruelty

What happened last night and today was manufactured propaganda by the Trump admin to justify using the military against Americans. Let us be clear: the military should never police civilians without a request from the state. So much for the so-called party of states’ rights and law and order.

Just like in the parks, safety comes first.
- Stay with your group
- Follow the signs (or in this case, the facts)
- Leave no one behind
- Document everything
- Don’t engage alone

protesters surround federal detention center in Los Angeles

Welcome to America, where protesting illegal kidnappings without due process is an insurrection, but attacking the nation’s Capitol is not.

ICE terrorizes our communities. People protest, and now Trump is sending 2,000 National Guard troops into Los Angeles. This is how martial law begins in the so-called land of the free.

One of my dogs does this and then eats it off the floor. She's always done that.

Pictured is three books stacked in a forest setting. Goodbye, Theodore, Welcome To Folengower, and Upon A Kingdom's Breath.

A new world beckons.

Stand with our park rangers! I'm not near a national park, but I want to do my part. Thank you to everyone who honked, waved, chatted with me, and joined me in protest. 🖤

Random acts of kindness are priceless.
This is a really beautiful idea. ♥️

The United States just voted against a United Nations resolution condemning Russia for invading Ukraine.

The US sided with Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong Un, and the Grand Ayatollah of Iran.

The cruelty of the world is incomprehensible.

Reading, painting, music, hiking, and working on my personal goals like editing my book.
