Sent out 4 emails to writers I really want to interview for @geekawakens.bsky.social at C2E2 this year. 🤞🏼

Been in an insane reading slump. Tried something quick/punchy to work through it. My first Junji Ito as well. The manga at the back was my favorite part of it, but none of the stories seemed complete.

9:04 pm and I just made a coffee. This is probably a bad idea. But I got some stories that need working on.

Day 11: Line from WIP

“Why don’t we start with the horseshoes found around Mrs. McElroy’s body?”
“That’s an easy one. Witches.”
He didn’t even flinch as he said it.

Day 9: Character Most Based on Me
The main character in my drafted, unedited, and unpublished haunted house novel, (tentatively titled Hush) was unintentionally more like me than I planned.

Day 8: Favorite Idea that Didn’t Pan Out

I attempted a story where squirrels, using a HQ in Central Park, attempted to take over the world. Fun idea. Not my best execution.

Day 7: Favorite Book Cover
Of all the books containing a story of mine, this cover is my favorite. It just really fed into the whole vibe of the anthology.

Day 6: Favorite Couple
Most of my stories are focused on 1 character. “Bombshell” is my first published piece with a couple at the center. This piece will always hold a special place in my heart. Not to mention it was inspired by a song from one of my favorite bands.

Day 4: Favorite protagonist
In “Superannuated,” Eugene is an ex-superhero that spent his life working as a secret agent for the US Government. Now retired, aging, and very grumpy. In general, curmudgeonly. He was so much fun to write. I plan to explore more of his life.

Day 3: Favorite line you’ve written
“Muriel was a gifted storyteller and generous innkeeper, but those things didn’t make her any softer than the hardest sailor or less sly than the most ardent of merchants.”

Day 2: Favorite Chapter

I haven’t written much that requires chapters but my current WIP has chapter where my trio of protagonists investigate a deceased neighbors house. They each find an item which speaks to them and leads to insights into the bigger story.

Saturday morning “writing”
