Chris was a pretty nice guy. I had been on panels with him, we discussed self-publishing in private, and he was nice enough to blurb me. That's a damn shame. Read his books! They are very engaging.

Good luck. Jealous of your motivation. You’ve stepped into the ring !!!

Sent High Five off to 6 agents today. 🚀

Wish me luck! I need a strong cup of coffee now while I refresh my inbox like someone possessed.😱

Hopefully one of them sees the potential I see in this story.

Redman’s ready. I’m ready. Let’s see what happens.🤞🏻

I #track ed a path

& impossible geography

redrawing the maps

was on my side

tracing a line,
as if my soul
could make
it's way there
without my body.

I know I don’t have ‘broomstick’ in my books, although readers think the female lead should have one.

I wrote this so long ago LOL. I wrote it before I got the art piece, so I'll have to change the wording later to reflect what this space looks like.

Also, "Grilled hated sitting on buckets" lmao, what a stupid sentence. I have no idea why I wrote that😂

My dad passed in 2014. It is the weirdest feeling not having him on this earth. I believe, no matter how old you are, you feel like a lost child when a parent passes.

Misconceptions about querying:

Queries must be perfect to send to an agent. FALSE.

Comps should be exactly like your book. NOPE!

An agent gave a form response on your last book, so they’re not going to want this one. INCORRECT.

James prowled a few feet ahead, a lit cigarette already in his fingers. His rock tee rose above his waistband as he cracked his back and stretched. He didn’t fit in anywhere, and as a result, fit in everywhere.

Nice show of peppers. We only have one jalapeño plant this summer. Will have to do better next year

[1/4] Bu’gan’zei never explained why his #sentient head remained in this world – I am sure he thought explanation was unnecessary. We held a meeting, where I was now able to recite what had happened to Mor’gwai after it sailed away from Thai’no’no’gwai.
