I don't draw much at all anymore, but when my wife asked for me to draw an animal for her wall at work, I knew it had to be #punch

20 years ago this would have turned out amazing, but still, it was fun to scribble on paper again.

It's pretty rare that I want to buy a physical copy of a KU book, but when the next in the series comes out I will be getting both"

Really enjoyed the dystopian backdrop being in the antebellum South in the 1880s. Great character development and I am looking forward to the next book. Was hard to put down that's for sure."

Thank you! I've discovered that I'm terrible at estimating my writing speed. I'm about 3/4 finished with book 2. I have the next month off from work due to a leg injury I got yesterday, so I'm hoping to have a writing sprint and get the first draft finished.

The Presidents Budget Request for NASA is out. It’s a bloodbath

Canceled are DAVINCI, VERITAS, Juno, OSIRIS-APEX, US participation in ExoMars and EnVision…

Huge cut to R&A. No funding to begin development of the Uranus Orbiter.

If you’ve ever cared about NASA, time to contact congress.

So, I think it's time I begin, in detailed specifics, talking about the mess that is Unbound / Boundless as a book publisher, in essence stealing most of a years royalties from me and many other authors, as a result of poor financial decisions, and legal BS.

So I'm at Thy Geekdom Con this weekend. I had no idea it was an anime convention until after I bought the booth. I don't think I'll be making table this time, but I'm sticking it out regardless.

When I was 12 years old, I wrote to @stephenking.bsky.social telling him that I wanted to be a writer just like him. I didn't become a novelist, but I do horrify readers with medical history. Every time I write a book, I send him a copy hoping, as I did as a child, that he may someday see it.

I've been sitting on a stock of about 100 copies of my book for the last 6 months. In that time, I've whittled it down to 60 selling at cons and my website. On Friday, I made a new account to run my TikTok shop and sold out my stock in 24 hours.

Here's the first batch, off to the post office!

A graph showing the number of Kindle Unlimited pages read of my books so far for my first year as an author (98,396).

Well, unless I get 1,604 page reads by tomorrow, I won't hit the 100,000 KENP milestone for my first year as a published author.

But that's ok. 98k page reads are more than I thought I'd get when Sorrow Draw debuted. If you're one of those readers, thank you for taking a chance on an indie debut!

Starting all over with my TikTok shop since my main account got age restricted from a bogus report that I'm a minor. I'm almost 50. Does TikTok care?

Nah, they age restricted me and doubled down when I appealed.
