Used as many cables and doohickeys as possible to turn my writing desk into a zoom content area for the next few days. The DIY fill light on the guitar stand might have been over the top?

Thanks to @offbeatworlds.bsky.social for the concept art banner for Mac and Zoe! Exactly how I pictured these two as I wrote That Guy That Invented Magic. Now to start my #author website layout.

As a #writer just starting to look into my publication paths, most disappointing to find is a whole industry built to sell wannabes services. Not a few things, but a LOT. Any many are quite expensive, given the #author ROI. I don’t pretend I’m revising a bestseller, but I’d like to break even!

Thinking how my #writing excuses have evolved-
At 50 I wondered if I waited too long to start an author career.
At 40 I felt like a phony.
At 30 I was sure that I needed some schooling.
At 20 I had nothing worth writing about.
At 10 I liked to write short stories and my friends liked to read them.
