Hello! I'm an author of humorous fantasy in the flavors of GameLit and LitRPG. I also design & develop sites. Love board games, video games, books, and anime. Nice to meet you. :)

Wanted a domain that's taken. Looked up the owner to make an offer. NCSoft... 😅

Haha, ain't that the truth. On FB, I feel like I've been shadow banned because I used a random word unknowingly. The same post here (on my baking profile) gets dozens of interactions. On FB... a few, despite more followers.
One thing I like about Bluesky is that you can say "murdered" or "killed" or "strangled" or "pushed in front of a subway car" or "sent to Davy Jones" or "gifted a pair of concrete shoes" or "shoved into the a wood chipper" or "poisoned like a Medici" instead of "unalived"

Currently listening to "10x is easier than 2x." This has drastically affected my goals for 2025. I'm currently building software to support my plans. Lots to do. Should be fun. :)

I created this account for my author profile... but I spend all of my time over at @lvl1baker.com, haha.

Honestly, I'm not sure what to post as an author. As a baker, though? Bread bread bread and more bread. :)

I managed to fit every pack of index cards in the drawer. I thought I failed, with one pack remaining, but check that out!

Four stacks deep on all but that last one.

You know I'm cooking (AKA, working on secret-secret projects) when I get 5,000 index cards. :D

Instead of alternating days between writing and programming, I've decided to go full time on my development work for the next month or so, then I'll be able to tackle this new 7-book series in one go at the start of the year.

Until then, I'll be plotting and planning. :)

Path of Exile 2 looks amazing. They released their end-game video today. Super excited to dive into this game on December 6th!

I should also introduce my books since I'm a LitRPG writer first! I have three series, 'The Weight Of It All', 'System Orphans: Claire', and the upcoming 'Don't Combust'.
Each is available on Amazon and I'm really proud of each one!

I still need to do better promoting my stuff. So here's a book I wrote. I'm currently working on the sequel and you can find it on #KindleUnlimited and #Audible (I'll post with some of the Alt Art for fun)

Ugh, I ate ONE slice of pumpkin pie and I'm ready to go back to my sourdough bread. Sourdough doesn't conduct my stomach in a symphony of gastrointestinal instruments.

I'm ready for this. I love video games and the imagination that goes into them. And it's from the same people who did Love, Death + Robots. :)

I just updated my handle to @dustintigner.com. Pretty neat. :D

Huh, Amazon Music is copying Spotify and introducing audiobooks. You get to listen to one per month. I wonder how authors are compensated for this.

RELEASE DAY!

Rebound - book 3 of Library System Reset is out in the world!
Join Quinn and Co as they race to restore the Library before the sabateur's return to finish the job!

It's an awesome series - I swear I'm not biased at all 😉

In an effort to help me digest more sourdough bread, I have decided to make sauerkraut. This has dill and garlic. Eat a few tablespoons 20 minutes before you stuff yo face with bread. :D

I use the #OnlyPosts feed, which is great. I like jumping on Bluesky, seeing all the new stuff, then having a "The End" moment when I start seeing stuff I've already seen. This tells me to go back to being productive, haha.

BTW, I bake sourdough bread. At least, it's my newest hobby. Getting a bit better every day. The hardest part is trying to eat it all...

Am I the only one who lets out a manly roar whenever I stretch? Is this odd behavior...?

#WritingCommunity, how important are print editions of your books? I have readers asking, but I'm not sure it's worth the extra work.

(As a perfectionist, it's a lot of extra work trying to provide something neat and worth physically owning.)

After some insane burnout, I've been healing by working on something fresh and exciting. What started out as a trilogy is now... seven books, haha. The plan is to write them all before I release anything.

Don't forget to have fun. :)

I forgot I created this account. Just logged in and found my LitRPG friends are already following me. Hey guys!

I find myself disappointed when a grammar program "actually" catches an error I missed in my first draft. I'll do better. Haha.

~5k edited so far today. Got eight 50-minute sessions to go. I really like this part of the story, so it has been fun. :)
