If your story had a soundtrack, what would the first song be?
For me: The Never-Born was inspired by The End Complete by Coheed and Cambria.

What makes a character 3-Dimensional?
- Physicality: What they look like.
- Personality: How they behave.

Which of your characters feel most real to you? Why?

Every author starts somewhere — usually with doubt.
A little "secret" about me: I sucked when I started. I learned the lessons of writing through hard experience. You don't have to.

Finding My Voice: Typewriter Dreamer to Published Author
I started writing when I was fourteen years old. It wasn't until I finished my first book that I discovered my voice and how to write more.

When I'm elected president, anyone in my cabinet who loses their shit on TV (like a certain neo-nazi on Fox News today) would immediately get fired. If you can't stay calm during an interview with friendly media, you sure as hell can't function well enough to serve in government.

I wonder how the Supreme Court feels about granting Donald Trump immunity for official acts now that one of those official acts is telling the Supreme Court to shove their ruling and fuck the fuck off.

Trump just said he was gonna look at the security of importing chips. Seriously? Why don't you make importing anything illegal, then all the manufacturing will magically reappear in the US and we'll see a new golden age. #idiotorange

Marco Rubio has ensured his place in history for war crimes.
Marco Rubio just announced 10 more people were sent to be imprisoned in CECOT. They were flown there from Gitmo to be imprisoned potentially for life based not on any crime for which they were convicted, but on unproven allegations of gang membership with no due process.
This is not lawful.

POTUS is telling another world leader he's going to start deporting native-born Americans, and to build more concentration camps for the inflow. This is shocking, even for Trump. I'm sure MAGA will tell us that it was just some jokey chit chat. It's not at all.
Trump to Bukele: "Home-growns are next. The home-growns. You gotta build about five more places. It's not big enough."

Booker: "This isn't just about Mr. Garcia. This is about every American understanding that this president is making an assault on the due process rights that are afforded to people in our country ... you cannot disappear people off American streets."

The Trump Administration is a criminal regime. The US is a nation of laws. The president doesn't get to decide what those laws are, but he has broken those laws multiple times since Jan 20, especially when it comes to due process, a right guaranteed by the constitution.

He imposes taxes on us without our consent:
He deprives us in many cases, of the benefits of trial by jury:
He transports us beyond seas to be tried for pretended offenses…
