The views for my runs have changed a lot since April. Those waters are high and churning. I’m sure that isn’t symbolic of anything.
(First picture: river on my run yesterday, second picture: lake on a run back in April.)

There’s no sadist like the man who comes into the gym and puts a cooking show up on the big screen.

Excited to dig into @mattbaume.bsky.social’s book this weekend.
As @bookmarkobrien.bsky.social says: one available at your local bookstore, the other is in the works - watch this space!

I recently relocated and had to leave my favorite running trails behind. But at least I’ve found an impressive lake to run around now.

Ah, the joys of walking trails in Georgia. Never have I stopped and backed up so quickly.

I don’t know what it is, but I find I keep coming back to this trail.

Some of us have busy mornings. Some of us just focus on being statuesque in the sun.
Once again, Misty is using up the house’s entire quota of statuesque and leaving me with the busy.

When it comes to wrestling with the blank page, do you find a light mode blank page or a dark mode blank page more intimidating?

One thing no one warned me about having a kid is how much time I’d spend making up additional lyrics to nursery rhymes I half remember.

It’s a beautiful day here in Georgia. But with this humidity, I need to move to one of those places where they say “yeah, but it’s a dry heat.”
Not about this “wet heat” nonsense.

When last years plants seed new ones without being planted, it might not be truly cool, but I’d say it’s at least rad-ish.

A peaceful, elegant cat. One who definitely never yells in my face in the middle of the night and/or when I’ve just got the baby to take a nap.

I’ve been a bit quiet so far in 2024. In December, I had the pleasure of welcoming my first child.
New work will be appearing on my Patreon very shortly. If you're a backer, you can catch up on The Hollows now.

McCaffrey’s Dragonflight was the book that got me into both reading and writing. A young teenager, it inspired me to start creating my own worlds. It’s warm and comforting and opened my mind. What was your first influential book?

This is cyberpunk at its best. Marge Piercy’s He, She, and It does everything that sci-fi should: warns about what is to come, and ties it to what has been.

If you want a great introduction to Neil Gaiman, American Gods is the place to do it. And if you’re going to read it (you should), I recommend this copy - the “Author’s Preferred Text.”

Pratchett and Gaiman’s Good Omens collaboration gives a great view into the writing process. Gaiman has said “There were bits we were both convinced we had written, and bits we were both convinced that we hadn't.”

It's a pricier option, but worth it for something you'll use every day. I went for the Razer Blackwidow V4. They're designed for gamers, and I've found that when it comes to products targeted at people who spend all day at a desk, gamers get the best ergonomic stuff. (Makes a nice clacky noise, too)

Sam Spade only ever came across a fake, but what’s this? Could I have the ACTUAL Maltese Falcon?
(It’s a long story, but… technically, yes?)
