The Devil is in the Details If the devil is in the details Then where are all the saints sitting on their sofas puttering with their paints waiting for the time to pass so gentle when at rest The Devil keeps on working the Details he knows best #rss365 #poetry #writer #deepandshort

I write grounded epic fantasy where myth feels real, consequences endure, humor disarms, and character—not prophecy—decides the fate of the world. Building "The Land of The Five Moons" one chapter at a time.
To Beating Hearts I would if I could, but there is no time. My love, infinite though it may be, is claimed by too many. I am anchored by them, and loving you would free me from this moor, but such things are mere dreams, my amore. We are but stars with our own solar systems. #rss365
though I am #adroit in other things I am dull in matters of hearts make me feel your love let me get soaked in your velvety embrace for I feel trapped in my own emotions set me free with your devotion #vss365 #bionicanadian

The #WIPSnips word for September 6th is "sigh" I'm sorry for this one. I know my characters sigh way too much. :D #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts
I was up last night thinking of the things I want to go away That impede my rest yet the things I wish would leave are the ones I know the best the one's that spin in my head leaving me distressed I will not grieve a bit When they fly out of my chest all the things the things are just a test
I'm drafting again... excited to write this one. A deep dive into a culture from the world I created... these original stories are building the foundations for the epic ensemble. #amwriting #fantasy #fiction
I love writing action scenes... The kinetic energy... the real world impact of blows... I think it makes my book sing. I enjoy rewarding my readers intermittently with dense action. I hope you enjoy. #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts
The #WIPSnips word for September 4th is "collapse" #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts
"Trusting the Reader" creates lasting, powerful prose. It allows the reader to share in the book's creation. They get to translate characters through their distinct lens and create new truths about the work. Multiple drafts help me cut the over-explanation, giving space #writing #rss365 #editing
It’s about time we had a reckoning with the need so many writers feel to over-explain everything aspect of their stories, even in non Weird genres. Readers don’t need to be babied. Let us figure things out. Leave room for interpretation. Over-explanation makes writing worse.
Once they expand the lifecycle to 150 -200 years... The politicians will never leave office... Term limits for everyone.
War is changing... and not in a good way... I kept it short because spoilers... What happened is crazy... hope you get to read it someday. #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts #rss365

Parents really don't get it sometimes. The I only read non fiction people are pretty lame most of the time. Like it makes you better.

A parent just asked me how they could get their autistic child to stop reading so much fiction and read more nonfiction. I was taken aback. I'd never considered that would be a problem to solve
Have an idea for a dystopian Sci Fi book... I outlined it... but not sure if it will see the light of day.

I just finished my first editorial pass of my first novel. It's really good. I'm really proud that I worked on it everyday for 8 months. A gentle person becomes dangerous enough to save his people, and in doing so destroys what he wanted to save. #fantasy #amwriting #rss365

My little garden. In England, maybe typical. In U. S. It's an English garden. The pollinators are so happy.
