Haven't done one of these in a long while, so... Hi, folks. I'm Todd. I write horror and weird fiction, have authored several books (DEVIL'S CREEK, SCANLINES, THE SUNDOWNER'S DANCE, et al.), and designed several books as well (Dullington Design Co). It's great to meet y'all!

Please, never be shy telling an author you loved their books.

It’s seriously what gets us through.

If you're a writer, wondering why you should bother writing with the world on fire. It feels like it's not important, I need you to understand that it is.

Even if it is just because it keeps you moving forward? Even if it only brings YOU joy, that gives you energy to fight & survive.

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports.

And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.”

Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

Good call to action: “You have an absolute right to peacefully film ICE agents as they conduct their activities...Help us create a database of the atrocities against Minnesotans – not just to establish a record for posterity, but to bank evidence for future prosecution."
