Remember folks: if you have any small amount of artistic talent, any sex appeal, or can make your friends laugh, the richest man on earth is crying screaming throwing up because he can’t be you.

tumblr is an interesting ecosystem on this thanks to the tagging system. you can and will get dumbass replies in the reblogs, obviously. however, thanks to the tagging system, people will often instead talk out loud to themselves in the tags, instead of to *you*, making for a different dynamic.

I've never had truly Horror-y cover art before! Kim's art makes me giddy.

Re-reading the story this morning made me tear up a little. This is one of the most personal stories I've written. Haunting becomes an accessibility challenge when you're disabled.
A disabled son care-taking for a disabled father tries to understand the mysterious blur haunting them.
