I would prefer it wasn’t 3:21 AM with me wide awake but that’s life. Hope you have a good day.

On Patreon, I'm discussing writing my SECOND book series, The Amethyst Lantern Series, and comparing that process to my first book series, The Questrison Saga. Read about the similarities and differences between these epic sci-fi and fantasy book series: www.patreon.com/post...

The outfit I wore to Shamelessly Bad Poetry Night last night was a nod to Diane Keaton mixed with Lauren Bacall. Big sigh. I’m glad to have been alive while they were in this world.

They would always bring a little something too, but it was really the company that I loved the most.

Something that I had abandoned for almost 6 years, but that I’m bringing back: my little food soirées. I am SO ready for these! I love cooking and hosting and introducing friends to each other. Very excited.

Rest in peace, Diane Keaton. Unimaginable that she’s gone. Like a piece of the earth has fallen off.

Our little screech owls are tiny and cute. I love both. Happy weekend!

I saw one last week and it was like a bomber flying overhead. Huge.

To be fair, I appreciate all owls!

Our owls here don’t make that sound. This is a great horned owl with a deep hoot.

Shoutout to the guy blasting Henry Rollins while raking his yard this morning. That’s how you do it.

My condolences.

Thank you. I know that the ripple effects from my parents' deaths are flowing through many of my recent and upcoming works. But in terms of honoring this recent loss, I'll first do that in dedication until the day I can in prose or poetry.

Now I feel like I can move forward. These people have helped me, and I think you know who you are now:

The Bolt ⚡️
You have brought me back.

The Weaver 🕷
You have rewoven the shreds.

The Cyphers 🗣
You have spoken the words.

Thank you, Casey. That means a lot.

Back to life and hopefully finishing a contracted book soon, and adding to another new one. I've not been able to write fiction since my family member's passing. The bad poetry helped, but it's harder to write a novel when you've been spinning. Hoping for an easier reentry now.

A snippet of a fun evening at Shamelessly Bad Poetry Night. (The haiku in this clip is about Randy’s donuts.)
