All day tomorrow I'll be doing a Q&A about Nameless--stuff about the world, characters, the weird and winding saga of writing and revising it, pretty much whatever that isn't huge story spoilers--so especially those of you getting the ebook, feel free to quiz me about whatever you've gotten through!
Hey guess what!

Apparently, a "Feb 11" release date with KDP means "It's Feb 11 SOMEWHERE."

Which means NAMELESS is OUT!!! Available on DRM-Free ebook, paperback, and hardcover!!

Nobody survives winter alone!

2020 wasn't that long ago. Fans and casual viewers liked The Mandalorian because it was simple and different. Had next to nothing to do with "Original Trilogy nostalgia" or some shit y'all made up cause you haven't watched The Mandalorian since it aired.

Like???

An important corollary to this:

Insurance coverage was cheaper/better, so you wouldn't necessarily bankrupt your family if you jumped your Huffy off the roof of the mothball factory or played a fun game of "throw and empty beer bottle in the air and try to hit it with another beer bottle."
Absolute truth. We’d drop our books and disappear into the cornfield, or the pine forest, or the hardwood jungle in the creek bottom. Total HUCK FINN wild roaming savages.

It. Was. Wonderful.

Thank you. But yeah, Judith was a blast to play especially because she didn't fall into the standard Nos stereotypes. Give me a monster who fully embraces and knows she's a monster, any day of the week. Throw in the extra bits like her being a Swiftie, and I fell in love with her as a character.
Lorea being a Setite is another big surprise, tbh. I had kind of assumed she was a more cultured Brujah, but maybe I'm just used to very stereotypical Setites.

Judith is, legitimately, one of THE BEST portrayals of the Nosferatu I've seen (well, heard). Love her to bits.

Fight Club is about being plural & having gay sex with yourself & also secretly being a woman the whole time who you choose over capitalism by killing the alter that is a toxic man with the healing reintegrative magic of gun blowjobs. My mental health is great do not read into this i read the book.

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

I'm about to be kicked out of my room. Trying to get work but it's been very difficult and it's all giving me a stress migraine. I'm 350 short to pay and it's three days late ♥️

One of the obnoxious bits of trauma recovery: recognizing when you're in a bad state and falling into old habits to cope. Really thought I was done with the whole

"If I make something cool enough maybe they won't leave me this time"

mantra, then managed to fall into it over and over last night.

Reminder that ICE was invented after 9/11 to terrorize people on US soil.

W’s “war on terror” incl mass surveillance, even more racial profiling & aggressive policing & treating immigration as a security issue. Muslims & Brown folk perceived as such can tell you how that went.

Abolish.

Pick up the pencil.

Have the audacity to make “bad” art. Have the guts to suck at it. Have the spine to decide your art deserves to exist.

GenAI is for cowards.

Are you a fucking coward? Have you survived everything up until now only to cave here?

No?

Then pick up the fucking. pencil. //
