Do you HATE fantasy and mythological creatures? Do you ESPECIALLY HATE fantasy when it has a streak of horror? Are you ALSO a masochist? Then you will LOVE TO HATE Bloodspinner! #booksky #fantasy www.amazon.com/Bloodspinner...

It really pisses me off that a genuine badass hero (Zelenskyy) who has been fighting tooth and nail for his invaded country, could lose everything because of an orange toad who - if put in the same situation where he had to save his own country - would either sell it or run. #Ukraine

#WritersCoffeeClub 20 How commercially minded are you? Would you object to selling a hundred thousand books? What an awful fate, I hope nothing so terrible happens to me, after all it isn't as though I released my books in the hopes of people reading them

I don't think I could be an actor, but I bet I could be one of those sci-fi extras who pushes random buttons and occasionally spouts gibberish

Dear politicians: You know posting a bio which says "Husband & Father" doesn't actually negate you being a shithead, right?

I know the headline says it 'appears to have crashed', but sometimes planes like to take off their wings and roll around in a good dust bath

Not sure I'm writing my latest book so much as wrangling it #writingCommunity #booksky

Of course Trump will screw over Ukraine. Of course he’ll sell out Ukraine. Trump is working for & negotiating on behalf of Putin. That’s always been the case. It’s up to the rest of the free world to tell Trump & Putin to go fuck themselves. It’s up to the rest of the free world to defend Ukraine.

Reminder that when a company pays you minimum wage, they are really telling you "If it was legal to pay you less, we would."

I feel like authors would be considered much cooler if they got up on stage and yell-read their books into a mic, with a backing band, in front of a stadium. #WritingCommunity #booksky

It was 8 years ago today that I released my first novel--a detective story titled "Bully For You". WHERE THE HELL DID THAT TIME GO!? Anyway, if you haven't read it, check it out!

Dive into some horror-infused fantasy! A crazy cast of characters tries to help Kitsu - half-spider, half-woman - dodge werewolves, demons and mercenaries in order to find her way home! Blood, dark comedy, and maybe a found family, too! #fantasy #darkfantasy #booksky www.amazon.com/Bloodspinner...

For me, neither a necessary evil nor a fun challenge. Instead, a rather boring way to indicate that you're playing follow-the-leader. I get that we're ALL borrowing from previous works to some extent, but I'd rather not advertise that. #AskAnAuthor #WritingCommunity #Booksky

There is no chance I will ever equip one of those stupid monkey's paw items in a game (your stamina goes up 20%! But now you take 50% extra damage from enemies) #gaming

If you like vampire books with lots of action & dry humour, my SFF/paranormal/thriller novels are available on Amazon in KDP eBook and paperback. Please check my author page for updates: www.amazon.com/stores/autho... #SFF #vampires #darkfantasy #thriller #adventure #writingcommunity #horror

I tried so hard, and got so far but in the end

Can we make it illegal for people to ask where their ugly present is that they bought you and you forgot to put somewhere visible in time before they came over

A nineteen year old girl who I've been training at work made a better call on something semi-important today than I did, and I guess this is how it feels when the mentor character dies

I know the world can seem dark and hopeless at times, but just remember, with every overpriced grocery item you buy, you're helping a CEO achieve their dream of buying their 3rd superyacht.

Thank you, Canada!

I mean, Canada's poised to do the same. My best hope is that we're learning to avoid this Fate by watching the insanity unfolding down there. But we probably aren't because humans like to stupid.

One of my very least favorite tropes is the "spy device has a flashing red light on it" which is exactly what you would not under any circumstances put on a spy device.

I'm glad I'm not called Al, because with a capital A it just looks like you're called A.I. now.

That moment of relief when you're congested and lying on your side trying to sleep, and you roll over, and for a brief, glorious moment while the congestion is draining to the other side it feels like maybe, maybe there's a spark of hope that it won't.
