One day we will put the ICE agents on trial.

One day we will convict the architects of Project 2025 for the damage, strife, and death they caused.

One day will be the last day for Fascism in America.

But it is slow in coming thanks to corrupted politicians like Chuck Schumer.

The biggest growth you can have in the modern world is understanding that your social media posts change very, very, very, very, very few opinions, and that is absolutely okay.

But the ones that do change people's views actually matter too. So don't fall silent.

Why I love sword & sorcery:
Sometimes protagonists aren't able to fix the world. Sometimes they're not even able to see the problems with it. Sometimes they're just trying to survive. Sometimes they're even part of the problem.
The writer isn't the society and the writer isn't the protagonist.

I have a piece of art being completed that is just amazing to see. I can't wait to share it and the artist who helped turn that vision into something spellbinding. Very excited.

One thing that makes me really happy is that there is now a generation of influencers actually speaking out against social media and relaying the truth of "hey, that's advertising, not reality."

We need that more and more. And more cooking videos.

I know Andrew Cuomo is a terrible person but even so I’d think the moment when he heard Stephen Miller endorsing him on television would make him be like, wait, what have I done?

Dick Cheney is dead and don't let anybody convince you otherwise that this isn't a good thing.

If a publisher is putting out a Kickstarted antho where they are trying to get you, a potential reader, to kick in money so they can pay themselves and the participating authors more, but haven't paid their actual authors royalties in over a year, then they aren't a good publisher. #booksky

Crazy how much some media has normalized the idea that voters are taking a risk if they elect governors/mayors who will defy Trump. That he’ll threaten their funding, etc.

Try to imagine, say. Greg Abbott being asked if he’s worried that Biden will punish Texas over his lawsuits.

Even though I didn’t set out to write a novel in the month of November, I’m hitting those marks with these dragon fights.

Dammit, I love dragon fights.

I’m sorry I haven’t been active. Been in a really bad mental state lately and needed a break from social media. But I have a book coming out this week, and I really need to promote it more. Six days left.

There's some real cringe-things authors do, aren't there?
