After working for the entire summer, I’m thrilled to report that the initial draft of my first fiction book is complete.

If anyone knows a literary rep looking for a middle grades horror anthology with a comedy frame, please put me in touch. Gonna start pitching it around as soon as next week!

When you support APWOT, you support freelance writers like myself! Go pick up any volume and I guarantee you’ll be blown away by the quality of both the writing and design.

Didn’t really get Kirby Air Riders, but I just got done with the Global Test Ride and now I understand. It’s just about being Rick and running people down.

Little Caesars saw the video I made about this four months ago and sent my class 12 deep dish pizzas and 80 brownies for free. Sometimes I can’t believe my life is real.
Your daily reminder to shoot your shot. Sometimes they’ll just let you have that giant soda can on the wall.

Easily the most surprising stat from the new Nintendo Store app. I know people hated this game, but I (as you can see) loved playing it with my brothers lol

Some restaurant or food company should do a marking campaign where they claim their food is made with “AI.” Everyone in the commercial is mad until they realize it stands for Amazing Ingredients and then they fire the marketing director.

You can have this idea if you give me free food for life.

I posted about this on the Soda subreddit and someone was like, “This must be an ad. Why are you so excited for this flavor? I tried it and it was bad.”

Like, my guy, people have different tastes. Also… it’s the ghat dang SODA subreddit, you clown.
YES!

I’ve been waiting on this one.
