Few things hit like an unexpected "I bought it on a whim from a small bookstore, and really enjoyed it."
Grateful to everyone who has given DIGITAL EXTREMITIES a shot. I published this collection expecting it to be my least read, most divisive book, and it's been the complete opposite. 💙📚 🥹

REVIEW: “If Guillermo Del Toro adapted Jules Verne like an Agatha Christie mystery, you’d end up with something like THE SALT ORACLE by @rainewilson.bsky.social
It’s oceanic in its scope and beauty, and like the sea, it left me in a state of awe.”

Small life update, today I started working with @story-forge.bsky.social, helping with their site's design.
I was looking for some new design work recently and while this isn't a permanent solution for me (it's part-time), I'm really excited to be able to help out with this project.

DIGITAL RAVENS by S.K. Putt reads like a loveletter to cyberpunk. If you're a fan of the genre, you'll feel right at home in the neon cities and iconic action scenes. 🪐📚💙

A reading roundup for October 2025. 📚💙
I read EVERY DARK CLOUD by @marisca.bsky.social in one sitting, at a nature park in Vermont. A really lovely novella.
THE LOVE HYPOTHESIS was an effort to read something unusual for me, and it was a pretty fun time. Not my favorite but a good change of pace.
