It's officially October, and I'm looking forward to all things spooky plus a huge announcement that's dropping this Tuesday the 7th 👀.

In the meantime, whatcha reading? I'm currently working my way through The Shining and loving it.

Me: "all this world building and lore and characters are getting overwhelming with my epic fantasy series. I'm gonna pivot and go sci-fi for a bit"

Also me: *spends months unpacking the finer details of cybersecurity and robotics and climate change predictions*

I just dug through a full vacuum canister to retrieve a *very* tiny Lego piece I accidentally sucked up.

So excited for this announcement!

I would like to introduce The Arcanist Guild!

We came together because we write emotionally charged, morally nuanced, and thought-provoking fantasy books. Dark stories that can shine a light on our personal struggles and make us feel seen.

Something big is coming soon.

I'm innocent. 👀 Pretty sure @benjaminaeveryn.bsky.social said this, not me.

James Lloyd Dulin @jamesldulin.bsky.social · Sep 8

People like @bshgarcia.bsky.social are always asking weird questions. Like what is this supposed to mean?

Been quiet on the publishing front. Almost a year without a book, which is near-death for an indie author, but who’s counting?

Don’t worry, I won’t leave you hanging for long. Big news coming later this month.

What’s the project? When?

Stay tuned.

the writer urge to sell your soul for a single piece of fan art.

or a review that says “i haven’t stopped thinking about this book.”

or a DM that just says “how dare you."

One horn of mead in, three character deaths mapped, and a betrayal I didn’t see coming.

Yes, I’m writing it.

No, you can’t read it.

Yet.
