The most important thing in writing is to finish. A finished thing can be fixed. A finished thing can be published. A finished thing can be made into a movie.

An unfinished thing is just a dream. And dreams fade if you don't hold on tight enough.

So finish the thing.

Why continue to make art?

Making art is an act of rebellion.
Loving yourself is an act of rebellion.
Loving other people is an act of rebellion.
Caring about people, community, nature, is an act of rebellion.

Don’t let the apathy sink in. Don’t let the cynicism sink in.

Don’t be like them.

Somewhere, out there, Greg Bovino is sitting alone in the dark, gritting his teeth, muttering "Oh, I bet those fucking liberals just LOOOOOOVE this."

And you know what, Greg? We really fucking do.

I need today to end less like One Battle After Another and more like the last fifteen minutes of The Godfather, complete with Cricket in the afterlife saying "Tell Kristi I want her to know it was me."

Just got word that many of my books pictured here have already sold. So I'm packing together a box of signed books - including some rare hardcovers - that I'll be shipping to DreamHaven gratis. So if you still haven't gotten some of my books, watch this space, and 100% will go to DreamHaven.
Today I’m helping out at my job from 20+ years ago, helping Greg & the DreamHaven crew ship books across the country to folks who inundated their webstore after seeing him on TV.

Website is still down, but later try DreamHavenbooks.com for all your sci-fi, horror, fantasy, film, & comics needs!

Hey Megyn, do you know why so many American citizens have been beaten, shot, trampled, humiliated, abducted, tortured, murdered, had their homes trashed, their families threatened, and had their constitutional rights trampled top to bottom?

Same. Exact. Fucking. Reason.

You fucking smug grape.

Charlie Kirk was not an activist. He didn't make memes & travel the country on his own dime to change hearts & minds. He was bankrolled by a GOP billionaire. Made millions a year doing it. The only homegrown movements the right are hate groups & militias. They don't understand grass roots activism.
I mostly just stay off Twitter altogether but after double checking that the Walter Hudson post was still up I ran across this and just had to share so the Romancelandians who bought hand warmers could hear about the PROFESSIONAL GRADE LOGISTICS.

Shit's pretty dark. But so many of you are fucking rad and deserve love as much as you do safety. Much love to all of you.

It’s almost as if being willing to die for the greater good and fight for the rights of our neighbors as much as our own is our whole national fucking identity.

Spoke to Greg Ketter, owner of DreamHaven Books, just now. He’s grateful for all the book orders & knows the store’s site is struggling w/ the demand. Employees coming Monday to reboot the site & pack orders. There are so many that it may take a few extra days so please be patient & keep fighting. ✊🏽

Conservatives seem baffled by the amount of organization going on in MSP. A reminder that Prince died in the afternoon, and by nightfall the entire city has shut down and turned into a well organized dance party celebrating his life. The only thing bigger than MSP hearts are their brains.

Nyx is a Great Pyrenees/Boxer/Black Lab/German Shepherd mix, with Pyrenees making up a full half.
You said she loves the cold. What is her breed mix, do you know?

Austin is entirely frozen over. Pure ice. Half an hour ago, the power went out. I was pretty sure the brick I shit at that moment could be heard from space.

Thankfully, ERCOT appears to have its shit together and the power came back on 15 minutes later.

Christ, ERCOT, don't do me like that.
