Who are the Barenaked Ladies to judge what the wrong thing to think is when it comes to BOOM! Anime babes?!

100%. I frequently compare it to 2002 RIAA. The establishment is far too consolidated and homogenized, and it is unwilling to modify its practices to suit the times.

If something radically changed and I became famous, I'd probably lock myself in my basement more than I already do, which would be noteworthy.

That said, interviews and book signings sound like a lot of fun.

The upside to editing as you go is that your first final draft needs a lot less work than it would otherwise.

The downside is that cutting whole sections leads to a widely fluctuating word count and a lack of "feeling" progress.

Guess who is feeling stuck in mindset 2 lately? :-/

It manages to combine heavy emotional investment with overwhelming power fantasy and pop culture nonsense in a way that never fails to satisfy.

If anyone is interested, my video today for Secret of Mana was pure level grinding, so I read chapter 1 of my book.

Rewatching #TheDarkKnight. I have to admit, I was always pretty meh on Heath Ledger. My god did he have a breathtaking performance in this. Legitimately maybe the single best acting performance in any motion picture.

I'm a Sabres fan and have been struggling to watch more than a period lately. I totally get it.

Likewise.

My hope is that by going to bed at 8:15pm, I will have the mental energy to actually write tomorrow. 《Checks news》
Oh. Right. We live in a world where protecting rapists is more important than anything. I forgot. My b.

Today seems like a good one to post this clip. For no obvious reason. Just, you know, randomly.

I guess I should also mention that I just started playing Secret of Mana for #SNES on #YouTube this week and friends, do I have feelings.

A recent reader of my paranormal thriller novel said it would make an excellent #Netflix series and honestly, if y'all want to will this into existence, I'm fine with that.

Someone messaged me today about my book and described the climax as "f***ing french kiss story writing". I never saw that compliment coming, but it tickled me.

Thanks for the kind words. It feels extra special from a dystopian author haha

Hey there, friends. Hope you're all well. Book is coming along slow but steady. Been feeling a bit overwhelmed, furious, and saddened by the state of the world. But I'm still here, still kicking, and doing what I can.

I don't need to be rich, I want to be able to support my family.

I don't need to be famous, I want to do an occasional interview on a small podcast.

I don't need to be popular, I want to see people's fan art and theories.

So hungry that I'm eating spaghetti like 2022 Will Smith

3k words this week on my #litrpg, bringing us up to 1/3 in draft 1. I'm trying a new thing with this one - getting the story down in pass 1, adding atmosphere in pass 2. Treating it like storytelling and then world-building.

I will be taking a break to polish a teen #fantasy soon, tho. Stay tuned!

Thank you so much for the kind words, and I'm so happy you enjoyed it!

As a massive fantasy reader, I think my 2026 has started quite lovely - finished Oathbringer of The Stormlight Archive, read Assassin's Apprentice and started reading Royal Assassin.

Also ordered and read through Bloodwalker by @alexemerson.bsky.social. Brilliant! Highly recommend!

JUSTIFIED “FUCK ICE” CHANTS #AEWDynamite

Ha. 30k, not 300. Blame trembling hands due to subzero temperatures.

Well there's certainly a lot going on in my country and in the world at the moment, but standing in front of my laptop in the kitchen a few minutes ago, I officially hit the 300k word mark for my latest novel. So, at least in this particular 2x2 square of the world, there is hope.

SBR, talking about Becky Lynch's popularity spike: This is gonna rule my asshole.

Swarley: Throwing it out there, I do not want Becky Lynch to rule my asshole.

Skiff picking Joey R as #5 for 2016 blew my mind then, but now? 😬

I'm having way too much fun listening to these old eps lol
