A brief moment of a respite for a character toward the beginning of The Thousand Doors:

Out to see Hadestown at the Fox.

One of the better descriptions I've done of how the Profaners use magic.

From toward the end of The Thousand Doors. Seems like every other occurrence in the document was 'building' or 'buildings'.

No penultimate, but @merriam-webster.com says 'ensuing' is a synonym.

I've been splitting writing between the kitchen table and my desk downstairs. On my desktop, I have a wired Redragon keyboard, and I missed the mechanical click when switching to my laptop.

So I picked up a BT version to use with my laptop.

Finally organized my TBR a bit. This isn't all of it, but it's the top end of it. Granted, Lies Weeping coming out next week will jump the line.

In progress: Queen of Fury by @natania.bsky.social, A Night in the Lonesome October, the second Amber series, and a novella by @scottlynch78.bsky.social

I had to go with attire for this one. I went to use garb first and realized the only place I use it is in the climax scene of the book and it spoils A LOT.

So this is from a villain scene in The Thousand Doors.

A little longer one this morning just because I enjoyed writing this scene.

Part of the project I'm working on currently.

So no instance of 'loaf' in the current WIP, so I went with 'relax' instead.

I actually wrote this last night. It's part of a fun bit of banter.

This is from my current WIP. Still debating if I need to do this first person or not...

This is some scamming bullshit right here and why you should read everything in the envelope. Apparently, someone saw I'd registered an LLC and sent this out. Had I not paid online and not read the whole enclosed letter, I might have sent money to them and wondered why the state still wanted theirs.

Time for the annual one chapter a day reread. I finally bought a paperback copy so I could stop endangering my first edition.
