A blue book sits on a green and brown scarf, surrounded by knick-knacks like sea shells and miniature stone carvings. The text says "Launch Day Has Arrived!"

In 2026 it feels like companies are competing to see who can alienate the most customers
Maybe I’m just burnt out, but I’ll pay the $12 if it scares off the AI scammers. I know it’s not fair to smaller human authors, but I’m too tired to switch to yet another platform.
Congratulations
I never knew that was how Neil’s piano career started, or that he came from such a musical family
It’s a Matryoshka Doll of biblical sins custom-made to cause AI psychosis.
It can be very frustrating to market an ace/aro book and try to explain that not every story fits in the spice spectrum. Especially since a lot of the language to describe a no-romance book overlaps with censorship dog whistles like “clean” fiction.

Even though moonflowers are THE thematic flower in my book, Wendi’s personal favorite would be lavender. She has anxiety and finds the scent soothing.
I hate how relevant AP European History has become to my everyday life

Yikes
A streetlamp glows phosphorescent blue in a copper-brown fog, creating a mist the color of rusted metal. The header text says "When your threat 'Touch her and die!' backfires terribly..." Beneath the cover, more text reads "A gritty steampunk reimagined fairy tale about the boy who refused to grow up"
When your threat "Touch her and die" backfires terribly...

Text boxes over a blue sky of stars. The first box reads "You shoudl read REVEN if you..." and the second box reads "Crave good ace/aro and trans boy representation / Have experienced the gifted kid to anxiety disorder pipeline/Appreciate morally gray characters/Want to explore a unique, non-Tolkien fantasy world"
Text boxes over a pink starry sky. The first box reads "You should NOT read REVEN if you..." and the second box reads "Feel nostalgic about colonial Britain / Believe love always comes in the shape of a triangle / Hate the word 'feminism' / Think any deviation from canon Peter Pan will ruin your childhood"
This is another REVEN carousel that I put on Instagram but forgot to upload here. #booksky #indiefantasy
I love that metaphor
We needed a win
That sounds unimaginably frustrating. I’m so sorry.
Well that is terrifying news to wake up to
This kind of blatant propaganda makes me want to boycott Target even harder.
The background shows clouds in soft blue and yellow light. A dark book cover is surrounded by brown snippets of text such as "Grudges are our love language" and "The real magic was the crime we committed along the way."
I made a vibe post for REVEN - too specific to be a trope post, but too general to be a quote post. #YAFantasy #IndieBook #PeterPanRetelling

My first author's copy came in the mail from Ingram this morning! The cover is surprisingly shiny.

I just made this for fun and now I'm posting because why not? #Reven #indiereader #fairytaleretelling #selfpublishing
we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad
If you could take a potion from the book, which one would you drink?
Cover reveal of REVEN: Across Golden Skies. The dark blue cover shows two ships battling over golden, glittering clouds. The lower portion of the cover shows a pocket watch surrounded by gears. The cover is framed by moon flowers and clock hands.
Important announcement! I'm thrilled to finally present my upcoming novel's cover. It was designed by the amazing Jenny Zemanek, who was an absolute dream to work with. If you need a cover for your book, I highly recommend her.

The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.
It’s a bunch of rolling strikes in a trench coat
I know I haven’t posted consistently on this channel, especially about politics, but I want to make my stance on current events CRYSTAL CLEAR:
ICE needs to be abolished. Not “reformed.” Not “retrained.” Abolished, as in permanently shut down, with all its agents put on trial.
As a Kansas City local - please don’t come. We love soccer, and we love our European friends, but we can’t invite anyone over in good conscience while ICE terrorizes our streets. It’s not safe.
