I’m working on my 1st (couple of) fantasy novel(s). It’s finally shifting from sprawling excel sheets to words on a page. 47 chapters down, 52 to go! Join me as I explore new landscapes in my story and my passion for storytelling!
This one. This one right here. She made me the luckiest man alive, and I’ll tell her that every day. I proposed to my best friend and she said yes. Love, patience, kindness, and authenticity. Hannah embodies all of these. #Alexander2026 #booksky #creatives #authors

This isn’t right, Kiren thought. The knot in his stomach seemed to shift and tighten. He closed his eyes, trying to block out the scene unfolding before him. The quiet made him understand the stillness the southern plains were known for.

Another day with zero words written, but time taken for myself. All days can be good days. With that paradigm shift, the joy in my life has grown exponentially. Have a wonderful night all you wonderful people.

In a discordant world, where do you find your balance?
It seems that books, my comfort tool, are always full of the same chaos we see around us. Whether it be war, relationship turmoil, or social injustice, we love to see the characters making a difference.
How do y’all write without getting 1/2

The moments that you define yourself by aren’t the big wins or the moments of recognition. It’s the tough losses and the breakdowns that you pull through that make up the primary reasons we do what we do. Through tragedy comes our victory. Through loss, you greatest gain. RIP Mark. You were true.

I hope that everyone else is having as merry of a Christmas as I am. My daughter had just informed me that one of her “Doorables” is an ultra rare. What a time to be alive.

Total appreciation post to my biggest fan. This woman. To call her my Muse is such an understatement. In my eyes she defines beauty and steadfast belief. She’s the best mom, the best friend, and the best person in the world.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone, but to those who know, anyone else get a nervous feeling in their stomach when they’re driving somewhere and see this in front of them..?

Author brain strikes again—wide awake at 2 a.m., rewriting scenes and arguing with characters who refuse to cooperate. Sleep is overrated, right? #AmWriting #WriterLife

How it feels when the black hole of ADHD inexorably pulls my interest away from a project that needs attention and towards one that looks bright and shiny from a distance.

Frank Herbert - Dune
While the movies were super well done, they did veer off a bit from the books. Much like Tolkien being the father of modern fantasy, I believe that Herbert is the father of modern sci-fi. 🧵
