Do you enjoy fast paced reads with nonstop action? Do you enjoy horror? What better time to read one of my books than during the Halloween season. All of them have an average of 4+ ratings, so why not grab one for yourself today. 😀

The griefer wore a long coat, like a #raincoat, on his character, trying to look like something modern in the fantasy world, but it just looked dumb. He walked around, text bubbles appearing over his head, insulting everyone.

Some responded, insulting him back, but Rory walked away.

The weather on Hera could turn in an instant, one of those worlds where terraforming hadn’t worked quite as well.

Dylan tugged the #raincoat tight as he entered the seedy bar, searching for one man. If Dylan could get him on their side, they might stand a chance.

He found him. Passed out.

#vss365 #raincoat

door flies open
and you stare
face paler than mine
looks worse than it is
half-coated in blood
a volcanic mound on my forehead
I earned an eye-patch, playing war
stones not bullets
in the trenches, in the woods nearby
my yellow slicker now two-tone

I went from a lefty to a righty

We head into the final few stops on our musical mystery tour, it's day 11 just 4 more days to enjoy (or endure 🤣)

Today's inspiration is from post-punk pioneers who served up the wonderful Odyshape LP, today's #vss365 #prompt 11/10/25 is #raincoat

What's your favourite album?

Had a rare night out with friends. Curry, and post meal drinks and chat.

And finally slept!

Though half the writing day is gone... 😂

Sherlock and I visited the Mighty Mississippi River. No, not that one. This one flows through Almonte, Ontario. It is gorgeous though. We had fun but Sherlock still refuses to play in the water. Maybe one day. Keep an eye out for more of our adventures. 😀🐶

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.

Sadly this is my last bit of freedom before I am back at work again... so let's enjoy it.

Happy Friday 🙏🙂

Apparently, after sharing a small taste of the rough text I wrote in the dead hours, was:

"...some Thomas Ligotti sh*t" ...
"...it gives [them] chills..."
and "...you know things are just darker from there...."

Amazing feedback from a publisher. 🙏✍️📖

“Halloween is for Lovers”

Art by me for October’s upcoming #SciFanSat issue and its theme of MOON! Authors, 7 days remain until submissions are due on October 16th. You can find full details at scifansat.com/landing.html!

#SFF #AmWritingScifi #AmWritingFantasy #WritingPrompts
A fantasy illustration in cartoon style of two werewolves in low-effort Halloween costumes. A female werewolf wearing a red hoodie and jeans looks sweetly up at her bigger wolfen companion, who has donned a simple black cape over his t-shirt. Backlit by an exaggerated full moon, their hands touch as they hold a trick-or-treat jack-o’-lantern candy bucket between them.
