Where do the cool creative types in Tokyo hang out? I need to make friends so most of mine went back to the States. #TokyoLife #amwriting

I would go for Mark N. Drake's DARKLISLE series (Jack Glennison Darkisle Cases series) starting with The Gathering of Shadows.

Just want to make a normal post but I'm still seething about visa fees being quadrupled here.

My students have been calling ChatGPT Chappie and I'm just so devastated

Interested in reading cool books by indie authors. Anyone got recommendations for self-pub stuff that genuinely blew them away? I'm open to pretty much any genre. #BookSky #amreading

Just wanna play videogames all the time and every day

Jesus Christ I'm just saying "see less of this" on every current event and politics post I JUST WANNA GRILL FOR GOD'S SAKE.

Anyway, I'm here to talk about books, mostly. My own stories as well as the stuff I'm reading. Maybe some video games, manga, and other Japan stuff since I'm living there and don't have any intention of coming home anytime soon.

Is it okay to cynically attempt to build an audience and a brand if the brand is honesty? No? Shit.

My name is Jackson. Writing is my passion and my dream. I hate social media, but BlueSky seems like the lesser of all evils, so let's give it a shot.

Huh. This really does seem like old Twitter. I'm... not sure I want to inflict social media upon myself again, but I know I must.
