I'm currently planning the release of new music, later this year. Based on a suggestion from a friend who is interested in interviewing me about this, I am looking for other folks interested in interviewing me about it too. Please message me if this includes you. Have a great weekend, folks!

Happy World Autism Awareness Day! I myself am autistic, although I am not defined by it and I don't let it hold me back. There are pros and cons to the condition, I believe. Feel free to ask any questions!

Have a great weekend, friends!

Always have been, always will be. πŸ––

Guess which novel I've recently started reading, never having read it before? Yup: Dune. Has anyone else here read it and, if so, what's your opinion(s) of it.

Umm... Does someone want to tell Google AI how numbers work?! πŸ˜‚

Since Daredevil: Born Again has begun, I'm getting caught up on what I haven't previously watched that takes place prior to it – namely, Daredevil Season 3, Hawkeye, and Echo. They're fun shows! Do you have a favourite live-action Marvel film/TV series?

I love days when I'm able to power through writing a new chapter, like today. My novel is very much coming together. There's been *a lot* of positive feedback from the few people who've read bits & pieces from it so far and I can hardly wait til it's ready to share with the world! ✍️

Since it's now after midnight here in Scotland, I'm enjoying celebrating my birthday.

Since 42 is "the answer to life, the universe, and everything" – according to sci-fi comedy author Douglas Adams – it seemed fitting to see this sci-fi comedy film tonight, on the eve of my 42nd birthday. I loved seeing this movie, with family members who also enjoyed it.

This was the only person speaking in the Oval Office today who placed America's long-standing interests ahead of getting some cheap attaboys from Internet trolls.

The Trump administration seems to get more and more disgusting every day. Today, I was horrified by the way Trump & Vance spoke to Zelensky, bullying him. Trump's body language and turn of phrase was horrendous and highly inappropriate.

RIP, Roberto Orci (1973-2025)

One of the most recent Star Trek books I've enjoyed reading is "Star Trek Video Games", by Mat Bradley-Tschirgi. He's currently on the Star Trek cruise and you can read a new interview with him here… www.starburstmagazine.com/features/mat...

RIP, Roberta Flack. 🎢🎡🎢

I have just opened a House on Clubhouse, all about Star Trek. If you enjoy using that social media platform, feel free to join the new House and I'll speak with you over there. www.clubhouse.com/c/join/QRoLu...

Musicians, do you have a favourite chord, and if so, what is it?

Often, you don't know what you don't know. The same could be said universally. Have a good week ahead and may you come out of at least a little wiser.

I've had a really good day today. It's definitely been fun to be so productive.

PSA: Would anyone be able to tell me a bit about Larry Forrester, a Scottish TV writer? I would love to find out more about him, especially for a non-fiction book I'm writing. So, if you knew him or know how to get in contact with anyone who knew him, please contact me via private message.

Enjoyed this excellent film at an IMAX cinema in Edinburgh tonight. I enjoyed it more than any film I saw last year.

Trump blames disabled people for the recent crash. And yet his "right-hand man" is autistic; i.e., disabled. Well, as an autistic person myself, let me just say that both of them absolutely disgust me with their total lack of moral decency. The orange ogre should be in jail, not in office.

I just found out from Nicholas Meyer that he's no longer involved in the Ceti Alpha V audio drama. Personally, I don't know what the studio is thinking. They had a great opportunity to include his vision for the project. To decide not to do that seems extremely unwise.

Hi, I’m James! I’m a trans man and former special ed aide who has come to the Netherlands for safety. I am working on officially setting up my art business and getting on my feet, but have little money for my visa & cost of living and need as much help as I can get. www.gofundme.com/f/help-james...

Good morning! Have an excellent day.

If you could ask any of the writers of Star Trek any question you wanted, who would you like to speak with and what would you ask them?

The Beverly Crushers have a new album out!! thebeverlycrushers.bandcamp.com/album/enterp...

Instead of producing the Section 31 TV movie, I would much prefer if Paramount finally upgraded Deep Space Nine and Voyager to HD. It's been out for a few days now, so what did you think of Section 31?

I'm at the tallest cinema in the world, in the middle of Glasgow (it's severe luxury)! Happy Burns Night, everyone, and have a great weekend, whatever yer upta!

The next 4 years are gonna be ROUGH for the USA. I hope it fares as well as it can, and I wish good luck (God knows, America will probably need it!).

I'm pleased to say I've found an absolutely brilliant literary editor to work on my novel. She submitted a sample to me – an edit of my 1st chapter – and it's excellent. So, I couldn't be more excited and pleased to start collaborating with her on the rest of the book.

Today, I'm celebrating. I have just completed my first draft of my first novel. It only took me about 6 months! Very proud of the end result and looking forward to the editing & redrafting. But today, I'm celebrating! ✍️πŸ₯³πŸŽˆ

One of my favourite Star Trek: Deep Space Nine characters is definitely Morn.

Happy New Year, everyone, from Scotland to the rest of the world. So far, 2025 looks not so bad (though I wish I could shake a cold I currently have). Have a great year ahead!
