in holding our breath
with hope,
we find the greatest depth—

we stretch arrow
to filament,
a streak of light,
falling like a shooting star:

neither here
nor there,
always
just beyond
the horizon.

If you had to eat next to a being from another species at Thanksgiving, what species would you choose?

I am cracking up. I can’t even. As a musician, when you wonder what the swan lake is happening in that sheet music and in the band. And as a ghostwriter, when you try to write to a music score. I TOTALLY GET IT!

Women, would you date someone who was shorter than you?
Men or dominant partners, would you date someone who was taller than you?

Asking for a story.
Because I can.
And because people's reasons intrigue me.

I got in a plant-watering fight with my curtains and I lost.
Water hit the floor.
A pillar got moved.
And now everyone from the outside gets to see me as I type.
But yes, the curtains still exist. In a knot.

IT'S LAUNCH DAY! The portal to the dystopian ruins has opened! Step through and see what a mysterious black octagon unlocked, and who it trapped in the ruins of a fallen world. Spin the wheel, live or die. 📢📚 #Roulette

Step into the portal. Roulette awaits. Launch day is November 8, 2025. Picture of an octagon portal through a stone arch, on a background of navy jail stripes. Black sheep motif is in the corner.

Less than a day left until you stumble upon the guardian! 🗿🚧📚 How long has he been in that tiny room? 🧱📦 Is it still a room if the floor falls out? 🕳️⛳️

1 day until you find the guardian in the maze, in the story called Roulette. Line diagram of a dungeon, on a maze background. Black sheep motif in the corner.

A thief, a swan shifter, and a grumpy girl walk into a bar...well, darn, it's a labyrinth and there are no drinks. 😇 2 days until "Roulette" opens the door to a tomb on a distant world! Watch your step. Traps abound.

Picture of a doorway in labyrinth ruins that says, "2 days." Poppin says, "Treasure is probably this way." Jade says, "You said that last time." Polley says, "Guys? I stepped on another trap."

Starting up the countdown until anthology launch day! 3 days left until Poppin stumbles into a locked labyrinth chamber, Indiana Jones style.

3 days until teleportation into the labyrinth. Story title is Roulette. Black sheep logo is in the corner. Ruin blocks background.

⚔️Did you know today is the 4th annual DAY OF MIGHT, a holiday dedicated to Sword & Sorcery?⚔️

Inaugurated by The Skull, though rumor has it Howard Andrew Jones may be its true author, this is a day to think about and enjoy Sword & Sorcery!

Picky, articulate, picturesque semantics make fantasy weirder. It doesn’t break the genre…it loads it with new meaning.

i made this for my husband
edited tweet from primawesome: my NPC told me monsters keep eating his adventuring parties so i asked how many adventures he has and he said he just goes to the tavern and gets a new adventuring part afterwards so I said it sounds like he's just feeding adventuring parties to monsters and then the bard started crying.

Wife and I went to IKEA for no specific thing, just to look at furniture and
pontificate on what we might need. And IKEA without a purpose is a vastly different experience. It’s like you’re wandering through a dungeon in a video game that you already beat.

this cat looks like one of the Old Master painters who's just slept with three servants, argued viciously with his annoying patron about the inferior ham he receives, and then painted his masterpiece out of spite
