Dabbler in many speculative worlds. Blurring the borders between genre and crafts salient lies to tell a measure of truth. My work has been described as: capriciously chimeric, dreamlike, and a vivid enigma. www.halfacrepond.com
But you don’t have to take his word for it.

(You really should, though)

Don’t be “normal”, be interesting.

Pretty creepy…

Some fine wordsmithing here… can’t say it’s inaccurate, and really I’m kinda glad his face had all the features you’d expect and none of those you wouldn’t. But yeah, some days it’s like that.

Fashion magic! Sassy-pants always stylin. Whether stilettos or JNCOs. (Yes, that’s why they aren’t wet up to his calves)

Find out more in Felix. #booksky

Both. I’ll go back and reread for voice, tone, what happened…etc, but then get drawn back into the story because…

I write what I want to read and see in the world but Do Not… so once it’s done, I read and enjoy it. #writersky

Keep the faith. You never know how your words affect people. Make sure the ones who need their comfort, encouragement, wisdom, whatever… find them. #booksky

Just one small way you can be an indie author’s hero #booksky

He’s not wrong… only wrote 250 words tonight but I’m now far more adept at medieval alchemy & the Tarot…as both apply to this novella… than one ought to be. Also, a bit of Latin.

And, received a delightful reference book today, The First English Dictionary of Slang, 1699.

Tomorrow, 10k… I hope 🤣

This is my favorite research find ever — the NASA Broom Method. It inspired the vibe for my use of Alchemy in Felix Chance… postmodern problems require primitive solutions at times. #amwriting #research #alchemy #felixchance #booksky

Meet the characters of Felix Chance in memes!

Hank sure did. The charming devil gave up a bit of eternity for one new soul set to be sacrificed. Now he fiddles with things around the Last Chance and dotes on his surrogate kin.

What’s your choice?

Personally, I prefer grandma’s shotgun shell recipe…

It’s not a self insert if each one only gets a bit of treato trauma!

Something to think about… there are hundreds, if not thousands, of talented indie authors out there your friends will love to read.

New milestone! Chapter six is done in the third Felix book! Just past the halfway point at 28k… celebratory sazerac pictured.

The best encapsulation of the Felixverse I’ve found… it’s a fictional world made entirely of pockets… #amwriting #ufauthor #felixchance

Reference #543 for the comprehension of Felix Chance.
November 16, 2024 at 5:40 PM
Well, we already knew that.
November 16, 2024 at 4:49 AM
Well, hi everybody! Might be a lil quiet right now, but rest assured, I’ll figure this one out, too! Currently finishing up the 3rd Felix book — Off Chance. Hoping to launch it end of year along with taking Felix WIDE now that Vella has demised. Also check for more serialized stories soon…

Ya know, if only a handful of people ‘get’ my work, that’s fine by me. (Don’t get me wrong, I’d love millions of readers for whom my words resonate)

I write for those no one is writing for. Those for whom the words become a light in the dark, for whom they become their favorites.

That’s #whyiwrite
