Like the name says. I'm a wannabe author. I've had a short story published, but nothing else. If you like Nick Hornby and Jonathan Tropper, you'll like my writing. I love comics, particularly X-Men and Transformers. I'm a huge Star Wars fan.

I have some ideas rattling in my head. Now, to get them in Google Docs. #writing #authors

Less than 24 hours later, TikTok is back with a thank you message from Trump. As much as I hate to lose the communities that I was a part of on that app. I'm not going to add to their user account over this nonsense. #TikTok #Trump

Snoop is going to perform at an inauguration party for Trump. I wish 2pac was still alive to see this. #snoopdogg #hiphop

My wife and I are watching this documentary about family vlogging. We've clearly entered the darkest timeline.

I'm going to update my query letter and synopsis. Fingers crossed. #querying #writers #authors

I forgot that Blink was in The Gifted. Her powers were kind of cool. #X-Men #gifted #mutants

Don't sleep on Redman's Muddy Waters Too. The whole album takes me back to the 90s when Hip-Hop was all about skills and dope beats. #hiphop #rap #oldschoolhiphop #redman

I wish we could have had a longer episode for Mega Man on Secret Level. What we saw was cool. #secretlevel #megaman

LinkedIn is going all out for insurance companies. I saw several posts talking about how small their profit margin is. How many people have died or gone without care, so these companies can pay CEOs large bonuses while denying life-saving care?

I've been a huge fan of Sly for years. Growing up with Hip-Hop in the 90s exposed me to Sly. If you're a fan of music, you should check out this book. #slystone #slyandthefamilystone

Crazy Heart is a great book as well as a movie. I prefer the movie ending compared to the book, but having grown up with addicts. The book ending was far more realistic. #books #book #crazyheart

I think I'm done with Wandering Souls? I say that now, but who knows what will happen when I do edits. #authors #author #writing #writersn

I've been working on this chapter for weeks. I've rewrote it three times now. And on the third try, I've finally got something that I like. #writing #writers #authors

Wandering Souls is about a man named Mitch who takes off on a cross-country road trip to find his way back to his dreams. Along the way, he meets Bee, a woman who is trying to find her way in this world. #writing #author #authors #writers

I finally watched X-Men 97 yesterday. I enjoyed it. I grew up an X-Men fan. It was a lot of fun to watch the story unfold. #X-Men #marvel

I've written three novels so far. I haven't been able to get an agent interested in any of them. It gets frustrating when I think about it, but I keep trying. #writing #writers #authors

After the election, one of my first thoughts was that we don't have Jedi to save us. Then I remembered that it was normal individuals who stood up to the Empire. #election #election2024 #starwars

I tried to get some writing done, but wasn't feeling it. I thought about trashing it. Instead, I saved what I wrote for another day. #writing #writers #authors

I'd love to see a Mega Man series that tells the story of how the city falls to Dr. Wiley's robots. The first season can be about the fall. That season ends with Dr. Light creating Mega Man to the tune of Protomen's "Here Comes the Arm." #megaman #retrogames #writing #writers #authors #Nintendo

If I could change one thing with querying a manuscript. It would be a standard preference across agents. One agent wants the first five chapters. One wants the first three. Some want you to do a little dance. It really gets crazy out there. #author #writer #writing #querying

It's amazing after 30 years, I can still remember to deliver a left punch when Bald Bull jumps a third time on Mike Tyson's Punch-Out. #retrogames #punchout #miketyson #nes #Nintendo
