This is a Gallowglas Sabotage - the official cocktail of the #GallowglasArmy at #LTUE. It contains just a hint of dangerous burn under blackberry sweetness.

This is a Gallowglas Punch - the official #GallowglasArmy mocktail of @ltuesymposium.bsky.social #LTUE. Mike the Bartender never fails to amaze.

Overheard on my flight...

Mother to her YOUNG daughter, "No. I am not getting you a bloody Mary."

Starting a new thing at events. I'll write the first sentence of a story, and people who sign up at the Gallowglas Army website will get to add the next sentence... BUT... They only get to see the previous sentence! After the event, I'll post it.

This first one is at @ltuesymposium.bsky.social

That may be the fastest I've ever gotten through TSA. Less than 10 minutes. Now plenty of time to chill and write before my flight. @ltuesymposium.bsky.social here I come! #LTUE #GallowglasArmy #gallowvant

Aaaaaaand.... Just like that... When pondering a completely different story, I have the whole narrative arc of *Halloween Jack and the Violet Tears*!

Hopefully, it won't take as long as Halloween Jack and the Red Emperors...

Just signed a contract with Space Cowboy Books to publish my poem, "A Case Study of Flatline Promises." It's a rant about all the cool stuff the 80's promised me I'd get with this Capitalist Distopia... but didn't.

Aaaand... I believe that makes 35 books published, maybe 36. If all goes well, I'll hit 40 by the end of the year.

I'm feeling super shitty with a stomach thing, so I've been looking for ways to distract myself. Decided to look on eBay to see if any of my books are there. Came across this deal right off. If anyone wants a super RARE SIGNED copy of this, I'll cut you a really good deal.
