Hey, would you like to buy a cool book I wrote? Do you enjoy queer romance and hate giving money to Amazon? Good news - you can buy the book cheaper on Ingram now.

Hey, so, preorders on our book are going very well? Which ... thank you, you awesome nerds. I am floored.
I f*ing hate asking for favors, but if you are interested and haven't ordered it yet, check it out? Pre-orders seem to be a big deal.

Hey, you can pre-order The Way We Used to Walk now. I am reliably informed that pre-orders are a big deal for authors.
I am, as always, bad at this. But ... buy the cool book I wrote with Megan R. Engelhardt if you're so inclined. I'm very proud of it.

This is a very good joke and perfectly demonstrative of Dan’s deeply cornball sense of humor.

I have been editing this episode of @the3rdonesucks.bsky.social (ft. the all-timer guest host @kaijuchaos.bsky.social) since the day I was born and I am no closer to finishing it.

Hey, listeners of @the3rdonesucks.bsky.social, this week’s episode is gonna be a day or two late. I’ve spent the week being gross sick, and haven’t been able to get the edit done. Sorry! We’ll have it up soon!

I miss a lot about the days of physical media, but boy howdy, video game instruction manuals with cool art and little bits of lore/world building are really, really high on the list.

My sib-in-law saw a hot topic type of cheap vinyl bag based on Calcifer from Howl’s and asked if it might be possible for me to make a similar handmade item for them. Quite proud of this goofy little sucker.

Okay, I’m very proud of this one - used a couple of new techniques to make a forest elf gorget and spaulder set. Also, Holly makes an incredible elf. Gosh, she’s regal.

Inhalers have been visual shorthand for “nerd” for as long as I can remember. In my particular case the stereotype does hold up, I suppose, although I was a track letterman in school. Is track the nerdiest of the sports? Maybe. Anyway, cheers, ya nerds. It’s breathing season!

Holly and I are shoemaking today. The leather she wanted to use was a bit thin, so we lined it with a nice purple suede.
