How long have I known Kevin Ikenberry and William Ledbetter, you may ask? Let's just say when I first met them, none of us had to suck in our guts for pics 🀣🀣 Great to see you guys, always a pleasure to reconnect with my writing brothers!

Today, #KashPatel sent a letter to my counsel @markzaidesq.bsky.social threatening to sue & demanding I retract my MSNBC comments on his unfitness to serve as FBI Director. This follows his threats against media & political opponents, showing how he might act if confirmed. I stand by my statements.

Gorgeous weather today! πŸ˜€πŸοΈβ€οΈ

πŸ”₯BIG ANNOUNCEMENTπŸ”₯ The wonderful folks at ArmadilloCon Convention asked me to be this year's Toastmaster. Having an official role at one of the most longstanding and revered events in the sci-fi / fantasy literary community is an incredible honor. Can't wait for September! πŸ˜€πŸ˜€

πŸ”₯Empire and Ashes updateπŸ”₯ Book 3 went to beta readers today, and I couldn't be happier with how the ending of the trilogy came together. It's been soooo hard holding back books 1 and 2 until book 3 is ready, but we're finally close to a full release of the entire trilogy. Stay tuned! πŸ˜€
