I typically don’t like to engage in these nostalgia memes because they’re usually thinly veiled insults at current generations, but I gotta say this one was pretty accurate. I remember doing this exact drill in 1985.
I’m very happy to see times have changed.

The world is a little more fascist each day.
Best to take 30sec and just watch some snow fall in slo-mo.
Take a breath.
Watch the snow.
Then go give them hell.

Just finished “Beneath The Trees Where Nobody Sees” by @patrickhorvath.bsky.social and @idwpublishing.bsky.social
Absolutely loved it and can’t recommend it high enough. The art and story are intertwined in a way you get lost in. The world around Sam isn’t explained and doesn’t need to be.

I’d like to remind everyone that this episode exists and should be viewed. I don’t care if you don’t watch the whole show (thought it is very good), but I do think this one episode should be mandatory viewing. It’s beautiful in every possible iteration of the word.

I am still furious things I enjoy are associated with the literal worst people.
Hunting, big trucks, shooting, country music, even wearing camo.
It may not seem important, but these were genuinely enjoyable to me and now I’m confused for racists, MAGA, blue-line for participating.

Want to do a small self-publish physical copy of one of my novellas. I know that Am*z*n has services for such things but at near Faustian costs. What are some other options out there that you like that would be good for a small run? Or should I just sign the underworld contract?

I have personally witnessed Beau model everything in this list. He’s the real deal.
Also, he’s just an awesome guy who you should know regardless.
And like other great Canadians, he’s looking out for you.

Since I wasn’t on this platform during my announcement last week, here is a quick recap:
Looks like for my next story we’re heading to North Carolina deep into the Appalachians and finding out what has always been there.
“Older Than Bone” is coming in ‘24.
