Rather than pick a favorite, I gotta say the feat of turning a licensing company back into a production company is amazing.

Wrote a little piece for Star Wars dot com celebrating ten years of The Force Awakens, ten years of Abrams Books’ The Art of The Force Awakens, my first book, and the incredible work all of the concept artists did on the film!

Just finished the audiobook of The Devils by @joeabercrombie.com . Dark fantasy with some truly LOL moments mixed in. A great story with truly memorable characters.
I enjoyed The First Law trilogy and really enjoyed the Shattered Sea trilogy but The Devils is another level!

The IRS wants Americans to weigh in on Direct File, the agency's free tax filing program.

We already know Direct File has been widely popular and successful.

The program could save Americans billions annually between filing fees and time costs.

Can folks do me a favor?

I was on Bluesky early & it was great. Mostly. I hit the eject button in January.

I came back, many colleagues are here, but still don’t know I am.

I co-created Halt and Catch Fire. I write TV & comics.

Here’s two favorite set photos.

Repost? I am in the wilderness.

Some words go together like jelly and peanut butter… wait, that sounds super weird.

A pair of words that is used in a fixed order in an idiomatic expression is called an ‘irreversible binomial.’

‘Peanut butter and jelly’ is an example of an irreversible binomial.

Just finished the audiobook of Shroud by Adrian Tchaikovsky (@aptshadow.bsky.social). This one really sucked me in. Great primary characters, a couple neat twists in the story - a fun and thoughtful SF story. Also really enjoyed his book Service Model earlier in the year. Highly recommended!
