My newest draft is over the 60,000 word mark. It's been two months averaging 1,000 words/day. Fastest I've ever written a novel first draft. My first one took somewhere around three years. My second? Over a year. TAB'S TERRIBLE THIRD EYE took about six months, IIRC.

I'm nearly 50K words into the first draft of a new novel. This is the earliest I've ever nearly completed a new first draft after releasing a title. Turns out distraction-free writing is the way to go for me.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Yes, I post this every year. I still like it, so I'm doing it again.

Second photo is of my new glow-in-the-dark evil bunny stickers. Get some free with purchase of a physical book from my site (link in bio).

Would've hung it over my antique Underwood manual typewriter, but that spot is already taken by vintage John Mellencamp and Weird Al tees.

Sometimes I find funny stuff in my Spam folder. Do people really fall for this stuff?

Spooky Season approaches. Over the past year, I have released a free Halloween short story (a sequel to Irving's LEGEND OF SLEEPY HOLLOW), built a themed Spotify playlist, and started building a protest song playlist. Links to all below:

I need to write one or two pages of synopsis for my latest WIP and I keep putting it off because that's actually more difficult than writing the damn draft for some reason.

Meanwhile, here's a photo a cone on my magnolia tree, getting ready to burst its bright red chiclets.

I’ve 20 years left on this planet, max, if family history is any indication. Been paid to write in various ways since the early 1990s but never hit a bestseller list. So my cat decided to try his paw at it this morning.

Volume up for the purring while he works.

One full week after I'd hoped they'd be here, the glow-in-the-dark version of my evil bunny mascot stickers arrived today. I didn't have them at TN Book & Readers Convention last weekend. Any orders of physical books directly from me will receive one with their order.

Tennessee Book & Reader's Convention is at Knoxville Expo Center this weekend. 10 to 7 on Sat.; 10 to 5 on Sun. I'll have my books and Ellezor's coloring books.

Come see me and you'll get a free evil bunny sticker and some awkward conversation even if you don't buy a book.

It's Friday and I'm not working in an office today, so I can think of no reason to not walk around in my Dracula cape and top hat. Skull candle will be taking the day off, though.

I'm introverted/not good at networking. I release books with a modicum of marketing skill and hope they hit with an audience. Grateful when they do.

My latest is a psychosocial Southern Gothic horror tale about anxiety, OCD, and discovering who you are.

I should remember to disable AI summaries before I type anything into any search engine. Brave thinks the Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events song from the series is significantly longer than it is. Like, CVS receipt size.
