Just donated! I've had the privilege of reading at KGB and of attending many many readings, and this series is one of the things I miss most about living in NYC. I can't imagine the SFF community without it and I love listening to the recordings and attending whenever I can. Please donate and boost!

Many thanks to @thevideogamelibrary.org for interviewing me about my gaming-related writing for franchises like Five Nights at Freddy's, Overwatch, and Little Nightmares—and for creating such a valuable resource for lovers of books and/or video games. Be sure to check out their extensive catalog!

I can finally share this exciting news: I wrote the first young adult novel set in the world of Little Nightmares! I love the video games, and it was thrilling to translate their eeriness and mystery to the page. Look for The Lonely Ones this September from Scholastic. 🎡

Its wierd, the bolded text feels like the opposite of the intended message, like AI is killing you, so you want a new tool? Its all so wierd...

The odds that this is also ai are not small.

Also writers groups are the way to go! Telling people your story shakes things loose i find ;)

Deep Space and Dragons is a parody podcast; mid quality, and definitely not safe from Richard. Expect one F-bomb per episode, mid-tier audio, and unfiltered chaos on time travel, dragons, and funeral etiquette.

If kidnapped, what would you post that would alarm your followers without the kidnappers knowing you're asking for help?

"I would not play a game about Kirby doing his taxes."
