My book, Frostbite and Fire, is on sale today through Memorial day for 2.99 everywhere ebooks are sold. A cyberpunk thriller begins when the body of a burned man goes missing from the morgue. Link in bio.

This is entirely too accurate and I doubt Marvel would ever be brave enough.

75% done with rewrites of book 3 of Houses of Bone and Smoke. Pretty sure my characters are going to file a complaint somewhere. These conditions are pretty intolerable.

This all day. Putin will not stop with Ukraine. He didn't stop with Crimea. He will keep going.

Which words are confusing for them? Indie? Book? Or is it Spotlight?

I've got two books I'm promoting right now. Cyberpunk with some fantasy. Psychic cyberpunk vampires.

Coeur d’Alene prosecutors dismiss citation against woman dragged from town hall, city revokes security company’s business license City prosecutors will dismiss a misdemeanor battery citation issued to the Post Falls woman who plainclothes private security guards dragged out of a legislative town hall Saturday and the city of Coe...

Huh, turns out you can't have private UNIDENTIFIED security assault and kidnap people because you don't like what they say at city hall

Weird.

Researchers have developed a battery using nuclear waste that runs for 5000 years. I think they're onto something. We should be looking for alternate forms of energy. What better way to reuse a billionaire?

I'm happy to see Alexander Skarsgard in anything, really. I guess I should add Murderbot to my TBR.

Captain America: Brave New World was fun. Not the best Marvel film I've ever seen. Certainly not the worst. It introduced some compelling possibilities for the future of the MCU. I look forward to what's coming.

Currently reading Black in White by JC Andrijeski. Fantastic book and her character and scene descriptions are vibrant. Everything just jumps off the page. Quality read. A few years older, but really enjoyable.

Reminds me of a conversation my mom had with one of my teachers in grade school. I was reading a lot of Babysitter's Club and the teacher hated it. She complained to my mom that she thought I should be reading the classics. My mom said, "She's reading, isn't she?" End of discussion.

Probably something officious like classic literature or religious.
