My son was right, steam trains are so cool????? From here on out I'm only interested in the weird niche shit that little kids like.

Currently reading the Foxfire books/essays/articles. I could probably do a bad job of depicting a high fantasy version of appalachia, but I love the area so much it deserves better than that. Oh also lots of research about trains. So much train research.

I! Did! The! Thing! After an 11 hr work day i decided I'd be damned if I didn't get some writing in. So I set the timer for an hour and went to work. 1,300 words in! Thats more than I've done in two weeks.

Love a good "fire drill all hands on deck this is the week we need perfection" call on a Monday morning when I'm already overallocated and help is most definitely not on the way. 🙃 I've never been so motivated to finish a book yet unable to do so.

This is how you become a writer: just pick one of the things that is deeply wrong with you. Make it a character. Now send it on a self-help journey or try to kill it. Now call it a book.

You know I'm so mad the Ravens lost but the fact that the Chiefs did too makes it better.

So i just watched The Substance (2024) and I have thoughts, I can't decide if I want to yell about it here or wait until I have time to write an article about it for @thegeekiary.bsky.social...

What are we working on today, blooters? That's what I've named you all. I'm doing the 9-5 thing and then tweaking my intro scene to give it more of a dark appalachia feel. 📚🌈
