Incredible photograph from New Orleans' No Kings rally which will be in the morning paper here.

Doesn't look like a "Hate America rally" to me.

NY State, 1851. A story about summoning your courage, finding your power—even when the world tells you you're powerless—and using it to make the world a better place.

(No parallels to modern life there.) 😂

Anyone who turns their nose up at ~genre fiction~ (like scifi, specfic, romance, etc.) as being inferior to ~literary fiction~ and thus not worth reading is a boring snob who lacks imagination and i have no time for them.

One of my favorite parts of the self-publishing process is when I get my first glimpse of the finished page...

Pretty, eh?

The Caretaker releases Nov 10. (Nov 4th if you buy direct!)

I used Dacre as the basis for a character in one my books. It was really fun to explore her lesser known works, especially her poetry!

A restraining order was issued YESTERDAY by a federal judge barring detention of journalists in this district unless they refuse to reposition themselves and are given adequate time to do so, or there’s probable cause they’ve committed a crime.

All else aside, I cleaned my fridge out today, after more than a year.... And it feels good.
