while it may not seem like it to someone scrolling by with a cursory look, what i am creating is not ‘ironic’ nor a ‘get rich quick scheme’ and it is certainly not AI GENERATED. it is a genuine expression of my heart and my beliefs about sexuality and art and love and freedom and curiosity and joy

A tweet from the Anonymous account says, “Make sure the dude in the frog costume in Portland knows he's an icon.” The image is a stylized poster of a frog wearing a stars-and-stripes scarf with the word “HOP” below, in the style of the Obama “HOPE” poster.

Last weekend's Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers's #ColoradoGold Conference started with a Gatsby-theme costume party for volunteers.

It was not the first time I dressed as a 1920s gangster. Here's 2025 versus 1997. Same watch chain! #IamRMFW #COgold2025

Pro Tips for Surviving a Writing Conference

I hate to admit how many writing conferences I’ve attended, as both attendee and speaker. Some might call it an addiction. I call it an essential part of my author journey, where I’ve learned my trade...

I did not agree with #CharlieKirk that there was an acceptable number of lives to sacrifice in order to enjoy "liberty," aka unfettered access to arms. Now that he is one of those sacrifices, I still believe the acceptable number is zero.

The horrific assassination of Charlie Kirk was quickly condemned across the political spectrum - as it should be.

Most Americans do not support political violence, regardless of what some may claim or imply on social media.
