@orlandospurioso.bsky.social I’m finally starting Star Pepper, albeit a few years late. Right off the bat, the MC toiling inside the star pepper tree is fascinating stuff.

It’s not quite #cozyfantasy that I’m writing, but #epicfantasy with as many cozy tavern scenes as possible. Just an assassin and his dragon trying to get through their first missions without blowing their cover.

Throwback to those few years I was a painter in Fairhope, Alabama. I wasn’t bad.

Reading Le Guin, The Language of the Night. Some good essays if you want to think long and hard about why we write fantasy.

I’m being careful not to lose that spark when rushing to hit a deadline.

Otherwise I might “use all the trappings of fantasy without ever actually imagining anything.”

Post a picture you took (no description) to bring some zen to the timeline.

Writing is my career, but game design is my hobby.

Meet Paperbag Dungeon. It’s silly, it’s puzzly, it’s the biggest pocket game you ever solotaire’d. www.thegamecrafter.com/games/paperb...

This is what I’m up to: Book five
in the Shadow’s Dragon series. A collab with D.K. Holmberg. Might be my favorite thing I’ve written. A story of exploration and espionage, with cozy tavern undertones, it centers around Treylen and his bonded dragon, Rime. www.amazon.com/dp/B0C1648954
