My last living musical hero is still my hero but unfortunately no longer living. RIP to the great, great Mr. Tom Lehrer.

I’ve been on a hiatus from writing, a little mental and emotional reset while I figure out ‘why’ I do it still

And then I plugged in some of my old iTunes playlists and… I’m as pumped for new stories as I ever was

Updating files for 7 books and 2 omnibus on 4 different services took me an entire work day. But the books will now have a brief list of trigger warnings.

I think it’s useful for potential readers to know the…many ways I murder my characters.

So my books and many others have no appreciable value to Zuckerberg and his stealing something worthless isn't a crime.

I like it when businesses are transparent. They tell you what's going on, they're upfront about their reasons, and understanding of their customers' concerns.(1/?)

I am unable to get a proper estimate for what my surgery might cost. But don't worry, for-profit insurance is the best medical system in the world!

Once you establish that people can be punished because the administration doesn't like their speech, expanding the bounds of who can be treated that way becomes inevitable.

Goddamn if that wasn’t prescient
oof if Nabokov didn't anticipate this

(from an essay by John Griswold, which I found because Griswold used "A Democracy of Ghosts" for the title of his novel)

I’ve had a game of D&D fall out— but I loved the character so much, I’m considering drafting a horror fantasy trilogy to finish the story.

I don’t want to be done with him!

a little necronomicon in my life
a little eldritch horror by my side
a little bit of ichor's all I need
a little bit of foul Cthulhu's seed
a little bit of chanting in the dark
a little bit of spilled blood for the spark
a little invocation: be here now
a little bit of you keeping your vow
