I usually keep notes, I don't know what I was thinking this time around.

For the first time in my creative career, I remembered a good idea that I didn't write down. My mind palace is a mess after all that searching. #Writing #Creative

When Time Slows Down: Enjoying Conventions My friend and I attended FanX this year. It was our first time. There were rooms filled with cosplayers, a massive vendor hall, and tons of celebrities (my favorite was Henry Winkler, who stood in …

It was a crazy mission, thank goodness it was only a 2 hour flight and not 4 hours.

That Time A Space Simulation Turned Into a Spy Hunt Readers of my blog know I used to simulate star-trek style spaceships. It was my entry-point to the world of writing, storytelling, theater, and tech all at once. A part of the reason I studied com…

The Invisible Man and The Picture of Dorian Gray: Two Masters Explore Consequence Intro I love stumbling across paired stories. Those rare and curious times when two different writers take on the same concept around the same time. There are plenty of Hollywood examples. Armagedd…

Down to the last session for the audiobook, it's been so much fun to really, truly read my book. #Novelist

December Update: 100 Days Since My Debut December already! It’s hard to believe my debut novel has already been out for 100 days. I set a one year sales goal for myself at the start of this process. A number drawn from speaking to other i…

The Best Art Isn’t Popular, It’s Specific In 2022, I bought a ticket at my local arthouse cinema for the movie Living with Bill Nighy. All my coworkers told me it was terrible. They warned me the pacing was slow, the message was hollow, an…

Got my first bad book review :(. Good news is even the bad review was still a 3/5! I'm also not convinced writing a 'strange' book is a bad thing. #Novelist #BadReview #Strange

Draft 2 done! I insta forwarded a copy to my alpha readers and ate a chocolate bar in celebration. #Drafting #Writing #SecondDraft #Editing

1 editing session from a complete second draft! So excited. The manuscript grew from 83k to 101k, all the more goodness to enjoy. #Drafting #Writing #SecondDraft

Love it! Thank you for sharing

There’s a Tragedy Hidden in Confucius’ Analects The night after I read Confucius’ Analects, I slipped into something of an existential crisis. Nothing big, just your standard reassessment of life direction. The thing is, as much as I had enjoyed…

Zeus: I don't know you, but probably.

Neuromancer and the Genesis of a Genre, by Logan Sidwell Supporting tabletop gaming of all types; including dice, board, card, and role-playing games.

What are the origins of Cyberpunk? Others have a solid claim, but if I were to point to one book, it'd be Neuromancer. guildmastergaming.blogspot.com/2025/11/neur... #scifibooks #neuromancer #BookReview #cyberpunk

Only 2 more sales for my one-year goal on my debut novel. At this point it's basically guaranteed, but man it feels good. #SelfPub #Selfpublishing #Novelist

A mysterious and fantastical word appeared in my book a few weeks back. All over the place too. Today I figured out where it came. Good ole' find and replace swapping four letters from a much more benign word. #FantasyWriting #WritersLife

It's embarrassing how long it took for me to realize I had to turn the gimbal ON for it to work.

Next round of books came in! #unboxing #novelist #selfpublishing #scifibooks #scifi

The Fifth Season is Apocalyptic Fantasy Apocalypse stories have always bothered me. The world is so disorganized, it feels like everyone alive is a scavenger. It’s all a little too material, a little too short-term minded. Maybe that hap…
