Still can’t believe my book, SAINT ELSPETH, won the SPSFC4. Thank you! Special thanks to @davedobson.bsky.social @spsfc.bsky.social
Giving Piranesi vibes.
I need a treehouse office.

I need it now.

I feel a new obsession coming on.

I've got the fuckin trees big enough to support it, too.

Oh lawd.

If there's one thing that I've learned from today's news, it's how critical it is to NOT take copious, detailed, digital notes on your overlapping criminal conspiracies.

Sometimes I wonder if our many years of jokes about writers hating writing and doing anything but writing, etc, have convinced people that the writing part is the hurdle and the goal is just to have a thing in hand. But I am here to tell you: the writing is the best part. The act is the thing.
