Doing to publicity tour thing for Arson means people keep asking me questions I've never thought about before. Recently:
"Which three character traits do you think were most instrumental to your success?"
Turns out the answer to that question is "wrote books instead of getting therapy."

I want to put "Best book hangover ever" as a blurb on the back cover.
It's so gratifying to have people finding peace and satisfaction in these books, and leaving happy.
Sticking the landing is tough.

Stealing fro Wizards: fun for kids, devastatingly relatable for adults. 😅
Hell this is how I felt until I was most of the way through my 20s.

Quote from today: "I've never related so hard to a character as I did to Kuro. The imposter syndrome. I felt exactly like him when I was starting my masters." 🤣
SfW isn't supposed to be an allegory for grad school, but I see it.

Just finished reading @stealingfromwizards.com Book 4: Arson.
It's so good!
The fleshed out world, and consistency across the 4 books has been a delight. I've been sorting out some expectations and identity feelings and it resonated nicely with that. I wish I'd read this as a teen.
Read em!

That's a sign I stuck the landing.
One of the great fears of releasing the final book in a series is tripping at the finish line. Early reports are that the ending is devastating in the right way.

Arson is three days too late to be eligible, but Dragon Next Door is also a Canadian indie dragon fantasy, so go show Ness some love.
Indie Ink Award nominations are now open! The Dragon Next Door is eligible! Head over to indiestorygeek.com/story/10108 and hit the “nominate” button at the bottom. Some categories to consider: ace rep, LGBTQ+ rep, book cover, friendship, side character MVP, made me hungry 😂 #booksky 🌈📚

The algorithms are showing me AI videos of cute animals doing unlikely things. Is nothing sacred?
I don't care that you can imagine an otter might steal a chocolate bar, or a baby deer could play on a trampoline. Those are only interesting if they actually happen.

Sometimes I am asked for writing advice. I maintain everyone's process is different, but this is one I think is good general advice: write for exactly two people.

This is incredible. Arson has been out for less than 24 hours and they've finished it and written a review.
That's the kind of loyal reader we dream of.
