Another alien bug, or the beginning of one anyway. I'll probably draw a lot of these and then just keep my favorites for the project. #art #drawing #artist

Going back through the glyphs I made for this novel, it's funny to find little errors. Like graphic typos. Didn't stop my editor from solving the glyphs in less than a day, so nbd I guess, but I'm still fixing them up. #writing #authors #art #BookSky

Working on the glyphic system that features in my space opera (Queen Pyre Ever Screaming releases in January!), and really enjoying the outcome. Some of my favorite words that I've put into glyphs today. #writing #art #BookSky

Putting a bit of work into alien butterflies today. Don't want to overdo visual elements in my stories. They need to stay prose- focused. But don't want to miss opportunities to expand and get creative either.

I'd like to think that AI can't imitate the kind of multimodal work I'm doing right now. On the other hand, I really don't want to have to think about that!

My little dude looks like he's gone incognito in a Marvel movie

Happy 4th from a pair of former Texans! Escaped to IL. My hat got crushed in the move. Maybe for the best!

Thinking about my grandpa reading these lines near the end of his life. Almost biblical before a segue into the mindset of soldiers. He'd been a sailor in WW2, but was never one to tell war stories, so we don't know much. Anyway, I wonder how felt about these lines, book in his hands. #BookSky

When my grandpa passed away, I inherited a collection of worn down Louis L'Amours. From his bookmark, he had Hondo in the hospital with him. LL's first book. I'm sure the book held a lot of nostalgia for him: a raw new writer's primordial formula for essential Westerns. #BookSky

My little guy barely eats at home, but take him out in public and gets real hungry. Don't know what's up with that. Kid being a kid!

Trying to read on the drive back from CO and my little guy kept demanding "Book." Then, pondering for a little while, he would report, "Cool!"

I agree, buddy. It is pretty cool.

A trip to Colorado always feels like going home. I belong in the mountains. I belong in Autumn and Winter.

This kid is growing at a shocking pace. And so darn photogenic! He never takes a bad pic!
