Review of 'The Zemis' by the team at Caribbean Authors:

"The book is both a literary and cultural offering, ideal for classrooms, libraries, and lovers of oral tradition."

Guys, I am crying.

Do I want younger generations reading my work as part of their Literature and History curriculum?

Yes.

Sooo Trump said the only thing Somalians are good at, is 'going after ships.'

And then the US seizes a ship................ like Somalians....

The irony.

Here's cheers to 41 🎉🎈

I had a pretty productive and satisfying year, creatively and professionally.

I just need to keep the momentum up and consistency going in 2026, while dealing with the very real challenges of aging.

For instance, I have a lower tolerance for noise, like a proper geezer...

The old soldier had a distant look in his tired eyes. His thoughts were on dead bodies in a trench, as bullets zipped past him.

"We barely won that war," he said. "And it cost us our very souls."

"A victory is a victory."

"The only #consolation is that we hopefully, learned a lesson."

Kiddo discovered he can download books on his tablet. Now he's freaking out because there's so many dinosaur books. ❤️

Warner Bros has existed for over a century, but I have serious doubts they can survive an owner that sees zero value in the theatrical experience. I’m glad MAGA Paramount didn’t get them, but this sucks for other reasons. I never thought moviegoing would die in my lifetime, but it just might now.

I'm watching a little boy show and tell his dad about the Naruto episode he is looking at with excitement on his face and in his voice. I remember when I was there at one point.
