Watching Chopping Mall, an 80s movie about killer robots, and half the ads are for AI crap. Seems fitting

Radical publishing notion, right here: if your publishers are making a living from publishing and selling your books, then you, the author, should be making a living from writing them.

That thing where I have to search every fantasy name I make up for a story to make sure some drug company hasn’t already used it for indigestion medicine or boner pills

And it appears I will be ringing out 2024 with a rousing case of Norovirus. Huzzah!

Taking a quick break from the book I’m doing to crank out a short story with a tight word count. The shift from writing expansively to every-word-must-be-justified is a little jarring

Time to escape reality for a bit and play some Warhammer 40k, a game where a fascist empire is propped up by keeping the catatonic rotting corpse of its emperor barely alive

I figured out that I can use a standing desk and treadmill to walk(slowly) as I write! So of course I immediately overdid it and now I’m sore as hell

Hello new and old friends! I write MG, mostly fantasy and historical fantasy, and my first non-fantasy novel comes out in January 2025! SCATTERGOOD is historical fiction set in Iowa in 1941, when almost-13-year-old Peggy is having a challenging year….

That terrible feeling when you sit down in the coffee shop to write and realize you forgot your headphones

Got rid of my Twitter account. Haven’t really used it in months but I want nothing to do with it now. That site has become another example of how at some point the most wealthy usually decide their power is best maintained by tearing things down rather than building them up.

There are a million posts like this today, but if you’re in the US, vote, and please vote for Harris and not chaos. There are SO MANY reasons, but for me the two big ones are my kids. Let’s hand the next generation solutions, instead of more problems.

I voted early! And got a really cute sticker!

Did some phone calls for Harris. As an introvert, it’s not exactly fun, but I have to say the organizing and training is great and the tech makes it much easier.

Those weirdo 4channers with all the “40k God Emperor Trump!” memes are getting their wish: a decrepit old man who’s barely even a corpse being propped up in a simulacrum of life while everyone pretends he is wise and powerful.

My town does Pride in September because of the university. Which usually means better weather. But of course it’s 90s today

I’m at the coffee shop trying to write, but it’s loud and crowded and distracting because of a book club meeting. They’re also playing 90s music, so I’m waiting for Alanis Morissette to come on so I can slide past the irony event horizon

The skull can have either corpselight sparks in its eye sockets, or gory bouquets of shifting tongues, but not both. Gotta make a decision here. #revising

Me: Ok, time to buckle down and think up the plot for the next book. What ya got, brain? Brain: ::Silently hands over manila folder:: Me: This is the lyrics for Wanna Dance with Somebody, by Whitney Houston. Brain: I wanna dance with somebody… Me: How is this helpful? Brain: I wanna feel the heat…

No. We're not fucked. There's no giving up, because if we do THEN we're fucked. Don't just give the fuckers the win, now or ever. Fight for yourself, fight for the people you care about, fight for the people who will be even more fucked than you will be. Be pissed that you have to fight. But fight.
