Its March, so if you're just poking your head in at voting in the Locus awards, I'd be honored if you'd consider voting for my story "Apple Tree Yard" for best Novelette. You can read it here: www.arcbeatlepress.com/news-and-upd...

I'm not sure which of you need to hear this, but: If you push yourself to your limits and burn out for a company, you are trading years of your future productivity for minor gains in the present. Burning out will _fuck you up_, it's like brain fog or depression, and it takes years to recover

Beastie Boys: Here's the paperwork you asked for. Me [checking through]: Part A, B, yes good. C. And here's Part D, all filled in. Wait: where's the final part? BB: We're not just handing that over. Me: What? BB: You've got to fight! For your right! To Part E.

Work on the fundraiser fantasy city is coming along. I've had my regular job and a huge amount of taking care of stuff for the reasons we started the fundraiser taking up my time. Very tired, but very excited about what I have coming.

I am once again begging the entire sports world to momentarily examine the lyrics to Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah

Guys, go crazy. Doctor Who trailer just dropped! 👇 youtu.be/MPxtqx55PA0?...

Doctor Who fans can have such a weird idea of what is popular. So many people griping about "The Devil's Chord" as if it isnt the only Doctor Who episode my parents, my partner's parents, her friends, and my friends have asked me to show them again (repeatedly) in... ever.

Stay safe, stay strong, stay beautiful 🏳️‍⚧️ #art

Please help Sasha find stable housing for themselves and their pets if you can!! 💜

I'd revise things into what would essentially be two tracks: Star Wars the movies, and Star Wars the TV show. The movies would focus on creating big cinematic experiences, the TV show would focus in on the serial aspect--exploring the world and characters more in depth. Keep each track focused.

Pitching stories and failing to get accepted isn't the kind of failure it seems. Sometimes it's just not the right time for a story. One of my pitches for the Paul Spragg memorial contest was later reworked into what for several years was called my best short story. Don't give up.

If you're looking for something to read today with the purchasing boycott, you can always check out @arcbeatlepress.bsky.social's 10th Anniversary Novel I wrote, which is free to read as an epub or PDF. It's a standalone story, but Chris Cwej is there if you care. www.arcbeatlepress.com/ap10.html

I remember in an interview with one of the MST3K writers they talked about how there was something they liked about nearly all the movies they did--though they were bad, there was something they found charming, interesting, or fun about them. They're making fun of it, but not out of hatred.

Truly the only thing on my mind at the moment 😵‍💫 #severance

In 1970, John Boorman of Zardoz fame wrote a film treatment of LotR. It is a STINKER of a film, although there are some legitimately interesting ideas tucked into it. I read it so you won't have to! A🧵 of the best and worst pieces of John Boorman's LORD OF THE RINGS SCREENPLAY.

This phenomenon known as a "planet parade," will feature Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune all present at the same time along a line in the night sky on Friday, NASA says.

i like how the prank of rickrolling was just making somebody listen to a popular and generally well liked song. like, haha, made you listen to one of the 80’s best pop hits, you loser

Same for series.

Just learned about the Battletech Romance Novel, and I gotta say, as the creator of the WARSONG / WARS TCG slice of life school series, I salute the energy.

The Trump administration is just the Tulsa Massacre writ large. A black man got elected/black Americans made some progress so the white folks next door have to burn the whole thing down to make it never have happened.

Got through the hardest part of Halo Infinite finally (finding a lil thingy on the floor in a dark room).

So, Academy 27 is one of our most successful (and IMHO best) series, but it's also of course a slice of life school spin off of a series literally called WARS or WARSONG, which is often remarked on for being wild. Which makes me wonder: what's your favorite spin-off that shouldn't work, but does?

I need y'all to stop treating independent creators like Amazon. We're trying our best here, but we're just simply not going to have the same level of convenience or webstore capabilities as giant stores. We're doing what we can on our own with the few tools we can afford.
