I don't even have a reason for it, but I just feel the need to. 😆

These AI using idiots are all going to have mush for brains in their 50s.

Forcing yourself to think, doing new things, making new neuro pathways is how you prevent dementia.

The human brain is naturally lazy. You have to work at making it work and bettering it and yourself.

generative AI has become widely available in the summer of 2022 and entered mainstream in 2023

people are working themselves up in a frenzy, convinced they're utterly helpless without software younger than still-fresh canned tuna. we have been making art for at least 50,000 years, get a grip

And, no, I hadn't read these before.

My "to read" list is bloody ridiculous! 😆

This is who runs this account.

I got so bloody frustrated with my fantasy series, I decided to step away for a bit and work on my Trojan War series instead.

I think Penthesilea may serve me well!

I wouldn't mind a detailed source for the Attic War though if anyone can suggest something.

#WriterSky

I just finished reading, "Overthrow: America's Century of Regime Change from Hawaii to Iraq" by Stephen Kinzer.

It's been on my "to read" list for over a decade and it should be obvious why this Jan was the time.

I cannot recommend it enough.

That would solve all my problems!!! 😆

Too many books on my to read list are far too heavy for right now. I need a new fantasy series. I tried "Earthsea," but found it pretty boring. Anyone got a good one with a kick ass female lead that isn't a ungodly tragedy to suggest?

#BookSky

I read 59 books in 2025. 😊

Much as I love that...I need to spend more of my time writing. 🤣

Wail of an Ebbing Tide by Xena Torres Tenebrea's Hope by Roxann Dawson and Daniel Graham Tenebrea Rising by Roxann Dawson and Daniel Graham

Books read December 2025.

I finished the last one 20 minutes to midnight. 🤣

#BookSky

Wrote chapter 1, friend gave outstanding feedback, but it means I can't take another friend's advice to write what I have planned. I started on book 2 as I have it all planned, but, nope, not knowing book 1 caused issues.

Back to planning.

I just wanna WRITE!😭😉😆

Book covers: Entering Tenebrea - Roxann Dawson and Daniel Graham "Xena" short story collection - Xena Torres Of Amazons, Bacchae, and Death - PNW Xena Mailing List A Rogue's Journey - Xena Torres

Alas, when I write, I read less, and when I read I write less. Curse you, time!

Books read Nov 2025.

Thanks!

If you see this, I IMPLORE you to post a picture from whatever device you're using without explanation.

Who did your cover art?

You’ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who’s coming to save you?

I'm still rewatching "Xena," so I'm golden!

I will never get the "indie's are bad" concept. There's terrible and great books regardless of how they are put out. Period.

Progress, progress, progress! Truly and finally REAL progress on this beast!! Heck yeah!

@trishellisart.bsky.social and @liviaroman.bsky.social are making leaps and bounds on the world building for "Convergence"! Magical amulet - almost sorted!

And it's so GOOOOOOD.

Finished chapter 1 of "Blood Cold" yesterday!

Also, I think I settled on the name of the entire fantasy series (I've changed it several times though as the world has expanded though, so we'll see if this one sticks).
