I've gone overboard, you've pulled me ashore, be gentle, be kind. Author of 'The Coveted', 'TEATH', various gross little stories. I've missed you!

How it feels hawking my book to all my favorite local bookstores in hopes they’ll carry it.

Unreasonably excited for this
This week, we've been busy behind the scenes, getting the poster designs for #MidlandsFringe signed off, and starting to send out info about our two headline comedy shows: Lucy Porter and Stephen K Amos, each at Wolves' Arena Theatre.

There's a lot of graft goes on when we aren't saying much. 😉

If you’re reading a New York Times piece and you see a portrait of a normal person just sitting on a bed starkly lit you know you’re going to learn about something incomprehensibly evil like a company dumping forever chemicals into baby formula.

Me in 2020: God, writing a back cover blurb for my book SUCKS, I wish there was something that could just write it for me!

Me in 2025: I will allow a computer to write this back cover blurb for me only when I am dead, and even then my corpse will rise to strike down anyone who uses ChatGPT!!!

It's funny that the song fields of gold gave us one of the most beautiful recordings of all time via Eva Cassidy

And yet it was only written because Sting said wheatfields got him going

I know I'm privileged and have a better time of it than most but my God life is just waves of devastation that come along whenever you're trying to pull yourself up from the last one isn't it

I feel like Nosferatu was robbed a bit at the Oscars. That film was a beautiful work of cinematography and art and to not have that be praised just seemed odd to me…

Agreed. Mikey Madison was great, but Demi Moore took a twisted, dark script and laid herself bare. It was a stunning performance.
Mikey Madison was great too but Demi Moore losing to a woman in her 20s is very on the nose

I'm tired of seeing talented musicians using generated artwork for album covers & music videos or writers using it for their book covers. Generative tools harm the creative ecosystem as a whole.

Do not normalize the devaluing of anothers field while expecting the world to respect & value your own.

The birth of steampunk: the legendary and prophetic science fiction work of French illustrator and author Albert Robida, published in 1885. Wonderfully illustrated, it depicts life in the 20th century. Aerial travel, video communication, floating sky palaces and equal rights for women.
