I'm a Canadian novelist with six books and I have secret wishes for all of them the Kingston cycle could be good TV The midnight bargain world would make a cool RPG setting The Feywild Job would be a campaign about the aftermath of the hungry war But Even Though I Knew The End should be on stage

Always kind of thinking about Marisa Tomei's 3/4 length sleeve (?), mock neck (?), lightly shoulder-padded (?), floral catsuit from MY COUSIN VINNY so I sketched it.

Backing up my files (BACK UP YOUR FILES, FRIENDS, NO EXCUSES and DO IT ASAP if you haven't in awhile/ever) and I see that my folder for all the [RECORDED] files is... uh... 20BG 😅 This is probably because of all the graphics and artwork I'm putting together for it.👀 It's gonna be SO pretty, y'all

banner version of the new cover, which shows several film strips comprised of individual black and white illustrations with the title and subtitle in red text over the center: [RECORDED]: An Anthology of Found Media Stories

I don’t recommend the Kindle version of my book, HOT SINGLES IN YIUR AREA. Unbound did a horrible job with the formatting and really messed up the art and typography pages (the normal prose pages are fine) Best versions of the books are 1. Physical print 2. Audiobook

This is why we signal boost each other, review and blurb good books, and try to support each other when life pours it on. Without community, you'd only have the abyss. And the abyss is one of those friends who's only really good in group settings. Never ride home alone with the abyss.

Set up for game design sessions with daughter Displaying the design files on the laptop and duplicating to a portable display is very helpful. The Synonym Finder and dictionary were out today because I considered renaming one of the advancement paths which will be in a lot of code.

A table with the following items on it: two laptop trays, Roget’s Synonym Finder on top of the dictionary, soda cans, a water bottle, and a stack of papers.

One laptop tray has a laptop on it. The other laptop tray has a portable monitor on it.

Dragon curtains and a framed foil of “The Charge of Lord Soth” is in the background.

Just because you searched and found documents doesn't mean any of them are legitimate or useful. That's the work part of anything academic/research oriented. Determining, analyzing, and considering the veracity what you find. Not just finding something and calling it a fact.

I started school in an English school in Germany and lived in Texas for two years afterwards. I had a lot of speech therapy as a kid so people could understand me. Bits of those accents resurface when I’m around people with them. Y’all came from the Army though and I kept it.

People are making fun of AOC for having a slight southern accent while speaking in Memphis but they clearly don’t know the pain of habitually and unconsciously imitating the speaking style of the people around you

It's release day for THE DRAGON HAS SOME COMPLAINTS! Garrodigh is a wild dragon who pretends to be tame so he can eat for free at the local dragon-riding academy. But what's waiting for him up there is far stranger than he imagines. I'm so proud of my dragon for finally escaping into the world!

Hey THE FEYWILD JOB is out in less than a week but if you haven't preordered this is a great time to do it no matter where you like to shop for books. I hear B&N is having a sale, I think that's cool, and it's hardcover so a discount could be nice there is also an audiobook release too! VICO ORTIZ!
