Life is so much better since I gave up Twitter completely. It feels like breaking up with a toxic ex πŸ˜‚

The best part about writing friends is getting to share their glory! And better yet - we’ll ALL get to hear Zarah’s story on her Baredevil ep!

Yay! It's FINALLY time for me to humiliate myself in the form of spicy story narration!

Congratulations to our 2nd and 3rd placeholders in the Erotic Comedy category! Your stories have left mental scars I hope never heal...

The boss is up to his neck in editing and says I’m not allowed to make any promises about when the next Flesh Fiction episode will drop.

Being the respectful subordinate I am, I will absolutely be respecting that order πŸ˜‡

Not to show off, but I've been listening to the audio for some of the upcoming Flesh Fiction story readings and... hooooo boy! They are HAWT πŸ₯΅

Elise was SO helpful in judging FLESH Fiction, and with their recent trophy win, now seemed like the perfect time to extend an invitation to help us out with our quarterly comp!

You’ll find Elise to be a thoughtful and fair-minded judge who looks for the heart in every story.

Only 10% of stories will be making that long-awaited longlist, but I hope ALL our authors enjoy tomorrow's episode. There's so much good stuff in it for everyone who entered (and everyone who wishes they entered!)

'Expanding brain' meme format featuring (from least evolved to most evolved): coke in a glass with ice, coke zero in a glass bottle, coke zero in a regular can, coke zero in a mini can. Fight me.

No, I do not want a glass with ice.
