A craftsperson loves craft. Writing is craft. The people who practice it are into the process. People using AI don't have the SOUL of a craftsperson. They want an end result to stick their name on, that's it.

Alright. Today is my birthday (and tbh it has sucked so far). But. I promised a thread of books by friends. And I am going to make good on that.

Please consider buying books from friends today. Thread below. Storefronts may vary. I'm just linking where I know the books are.

Been a while since I shared a snip, so here's a dreamy little something from HALFSLEEPER rewrites, which I've been working on this week. ✨
An excerpt from Erinn Harper's novel, HALFSLEEPER. It reads as follows: Movement in my periphery drew my attention. With a start, I whirled to find someone slumped in front of the desk beneath the loft. I recognized him instantly, yet I couldn't reconcile his earthly body with his celestial avatar. "Vision," I whispered, and when he didn't respond, I reminded myself that this was a memory. His memory, I realized with slowly dawning awe. I stood now in a glimpse of his past. It was hard to believe I wasn't standing in his physical presence.

Jumping ship to other WIPs the moment I encounter a knot that I can't immediately untangle 🫠

Instead of allotting time to work through the problem, I convince myself the solution will magically manifest after enough time has passed. (sometimes it does, most times it doesn't.)

Something I realized recently is that I'm so tired of fragmenting myself into separate identities based on the work I do & the things I create. I don't feel whole anymore, and I wonder if what I need is a "rebrand" of sorts focusing on myself as an individual & all the things I'm passionate about.

I know a lot of people are already spreading this info, but hoping to spread it a little further: donating to a food bank, food pantry, or food distribution mutual aid group is really important right now, as TFG and the fucking GOP are shutting down snap benefits on November 1. I'll link to a few

Sharing again for morning (for me at least) folks. I have a Halloween sale on my already out books. And since all of November will be devoted to promoting the novella prior to its debut, this will likely be the last time I spotlight these books for a while.

I've been talking a lot about my coming novella, but what if you want sci-fi? You can get both currently out books from the Azaes Realm series on Itch for a devilishly good price for their Halloween sale. It's spooktacular!
