“Is this the fate of sons who send themselves on exile?
To long for a home that does not want you.”

I am excited to share my Transients Magazine published poem "Nomad" about self exile and family.

Imagine me getting a Playwriting MFA in an ivy league college. And then I get a major deal from a big 5 Publisher. And then we get major awards and debut on bestselling list.
The Onion acquiring Infowars happened because BlueSky made a joke to @bencollins.bsky.social, and @bencollins.bsky.social working to acquire The Onion happened because he made a joke on BlueSky.

Basically, joke about your dreams on BlueSky, it's a wish factory.

haha, won’t it be funny if i got into a masters program for cybersecurity or health sciences, then later do a doctorate in nursing, get a high paying job in cybersecurity (or even nursing), leave this country for good and own a house?

hahaha

So excited to see my novelette “Desperate Ark Wives” in this @havenspec.bsky.social issue. I had fun writing this rollercoaster that follows Gloria and her chaotic daughters-in-law aboard the Ark, and how they band together in a bid to stop the great biblical flood🌊 Subscribers get to read it today!
Our November Issue will go out to subscribers today, and just look at our amazing cover art and TOC!

I’ve been alerted that The Lions of Al-Rassan is $2 right now as an ebook on major purveyors of those in the US.

Thought some might want a heads-up.

The cold is coming. The winter monsters are awakening. The trees are dying. Things are decaying. Animals in the woods are eating the flesh from last night’s sacrifices. Don’t get it twisted, my friends: November is also all about horror.
