People should read.
I'm tired of people not reading.
Please, if you can, PLEASE, read! Read everything, but especially fiction! Read comics!
It will help you with empathy AND make you smarter.
Please, read.

I feel like "90's cartoon style" has become the new "anime style" as in that people generalize it to a specific style not knowing a lot of them are pretty different art style wise
Baking set to opera. Found this weirdly satisfying.
I'm starting work on a new book and am super psyched about it.

I went and saw Project Hail Mary.
A guy came in with his service dog and the dog sat there the whole time just concentrating on the movie.
Afterwards I told the guy I was amazed your dog watched the movie like that.
He replied, me too especially because he hated the book.

Seen some really disgusting and unacceptable comments regarding Trump on social media.
People are going around saying the most awful things like โI hope heโs okโ or โI hope he pulls throughโ.
Makes me sick.

The second is a collection of stories ...a la The Jungle Book but about Necromancers and the Underworld.
The third is a book about ghosts haunting an old hotel over several decades, passing on their trauma until someone decides to end the cycle.
I want to write all 3 at once. Any votes?
Help me decide what to write next!
I have one book with a completed draft currently sitting with beta readers.
I have three other books in various states of draft, all of them needing restructure before I get properly stuck in.
The first is the sequel to the already completed draft.

Only when I eat cheese.
Having given up Harry Potter and eating dairy, dairy was the bigger loss.
Maybe if I keep scrolling there will be some breaking news announcing that things don't suck anymore
There's the You're Wrong About podcast, but they tend to cover more recent history than ancient. In context I realise it's not what you were referring to but it's the first that came to mind
