TIL that after King Midas’ golden curse was removed by washing his hands in a river, he became a hippy.
He followed Pan, lived off the land, wove flowers into his hair, and even attended a music festival.
I’d love to connect with writers/readers. Here's a quick intro so you know what you’ll get.
I’m a nice guy with a penchant for the silly.
I also like deep/inspiring thoughts.
I will self publish my 1st novel this year (Historical Fic.)
I have a Sweet Bride. ♥️
I promote writers and diversity.
I like suicide jokes. This is my blog about how they helped me through the hardest time in my life and how they influenced my first book.

I made this with the help of a bunch of authors. It was a fun hobby project.
Here's the high(er) resolution pdf:

Thanks. They will get some revision, so notes are welcome.
As promised, here is my blog on #scams that target #authors. If it helps even one person, I have done my job. I am disgusted by the people perpetuating these. Stay safe out there.

Hi all. I'm writing a blog post about scams aimed at authors. If it can help even one person, my job is done.
If you are willing to share a story, sentiment, warning, or anything else, feel free to post it here or DM me anonymously. (I am not open to discussing anything else via DM.)
Great to meet you!
I added you to the second list. If you know anyone else who should be on the list, please let me know. Thanks!
Sounds awesome!
Added. Great to meet you.
Added. Sorry for the delay. Congrats on your novels so far and your forthcoming novels. Great to meet you.
First Question of the Day
Did you get anything really good for Xmas?
Me: I got a carving knife and meat fork. It's the first time in years my F'd-up hand didn't hurt after slicing prime rib. (Oh, and I also got prime rib. 😀)
We're hesitant to eat it because we like him so much.
Wishing everyone peace and happiness. We all need some. Merry Christmas. (Frankenstein's Cookie - 2024)
An important safety message for the holidays:

First Question of the Day
Eggnog. Smash or pass?
Me: I would smash, but can't because of a diet. Oh well.
Spectacular shot!

I added you to my Sci-Fi Authors Starter Pack 2. If you know of any other sci-fi authors who should be on the list, please let me know. Thanks.

Seeing other authors succeed always helps me feel like I can achieve my goals. Their wins remind I can excel even if,
- The right words won't come,
- I fall behind my "schedule,"
- Life gets in the way of writing,
- Sales slump, or
- Health hinders my progress.
I can succeed.
I have two main vices:
1. Letting my dog onto the bed.
2. Writing.
Stunning
Happy winter solstice from Colorado. I hope your evening was/is/will be as spectacular as mine.
Thanks for the mention!
I forgot to post last night's sunset here. I was grateful to be the passenger because it gave me time to enjoy it.
Thanks. If you have any notes, I'd love to hear them. I'm definitely an amateur.
I send text messages to myself by dictating texts to myself in the car all the time.
First Question of the Day
Do you send emails/texts to yourself with notes or reminders?
