Man I gave so much nightmare fuel on my social media platforms - and for good reason!

But here’s me tempted to use Bluesky to just be a weirdo smut writer and pretend the rest of the world isn’t burning.

Al gore is pissed off and I’m here for it

Trying to edit out ~500-750 words from a 10k story is the reason why I'm drinking today.

It’s instant entertainment when your lesbian cat stalks the other cat she’s obsessed with, determined to win her love despite constant rebuffs.

And behind them trails the male tabby because he wants to watch the drama unfold.

Think I’ll take the long way to therapy today so I can fit a nap in on the bus.

Guh. I hate when extreme emotions, even positive ones, disregulate my nervous system and make it so I barely sleep.

Please don’t come at me with neurodivergence being a super power today. I’m liable to inflict damage.

Look I’m not saying Cory Booker is the inspiration that has creativity pouring out of my head at 2 AM. But I’m not NOT saying it either.

There’s a profound sense of harmony in the world that I’m going to relish as long as it lasts.

Started taking Ozempic for my Diabetes, and the indigestion it’s giving me reads like it entered my body and said, “Bitch, you live like this?”

Spotify: *tries to give me a diverse playlist*

Me: *skips songs to get to the Depeche Mode songs*

Spotify: *just starts only playing Depeche Mode. JFC, Connor, why do you even bother with a diverse playlist when you’re in these moods?*

When I say that the Democrats are feckless invertebrates, please know that Reps. Crockett, Ocasio-Cortez, and Green are excluded from that mention.

Dear Therapist,

See I meant to get better sleep this week, but then someone on TikTok posted a song I haven’t heard since the 90s and I could still sing the refrain so I had to keep replaying it, which led me down a rabbit hole of 90s music and… and… and…

… and then it was 2 AM.

My 19 Year Old (about Kendrick Lamar): I don’t know what it is, but his voice scratches my brain.

In AuDHD, not only is this 100% accurate, it’s also a huge compliment.

Reading German history is especially chilling right now. Doing research on the Nuremberg Laws for this story and man, if there aren’t some real echoes in all of this.

Update: Found a good plot that not only allows for romance but gives a good excuse for a vampire to go Inglorious Basterds on some nahtzees.

I have a feeling by the end of the year I’m going to have a few of these.
February 26, 2025 at 6:13 PM
The angrier I get at reality, the more my muse wants to write the most aggressive batshit stuff ever.

Let’s see if I can concoct another story where vampires off a bunch of nahtzees.

Okay, this new short story is way, way, way too dark for its intended purpose, so I’ll have to brainstorm something more appropriate afterward.

In the meantime, I’ll keep channeling Clive Barker.

Getting my dark romance slut on with this short story I’m writing. Not sure what pit of hell this is coming from but I’m already at 1k out of 10k.

It’ll remain to be seen if I can actually use it for its intended purpose. 😅
February 19, 2025 at 7:31 PM
Had to write a story under 10k. Finished this one at 9.5k.

Now I just have to do it again for a different anthology. 😂

For someone who learned how to write while reading a lot of Stephen King books, this level of brevity is Herculean.

Never be afraid to write your heart out. To write your ass off. To write until your hands cramp. Because when you look back at the miles of ink behind you you might just have a masterpiece.

This 10k word story has yet to go off the rails. And I’m pretty sure I have a bead on the plot.

Of course, my muse couldn’t help but to include a small morsel I can expand upon in another story, though.

Because of course it did.

Call him before Congress, start reading out his SSN and those of everyone in his family, and ask him when he wants it to stop.
