Wow. I couldn’t get enough of #Sinners. What a fantastic movie that was, a complete roller coaster ride!

It’s one of those films you gotta see on the big screen.

Corporate America skinned me alive today, so I originally came home to bash my head against the wall…

…Then I remembered @toddkeisling.com and @shortwavebooks.bsky.social were in da house, and everything felt a little better.

A full-week of vacation left me with 650 emails to get through this morning and afternoon. Why thank you, Corporate America. I Appreciate you 😢

Waking up this morning and realizing second-round revisions of my WIP are finished is such a delightful feeling. I’m so proud of myself for making it this far.

Utilized my lunch break to pluck this little beast off a bookshelf.

Any other #writers getting tired of Microsoft? If so, which alternatives are you using? I find myself using Scrivener more and more each day

Name one actor whose movies you'll watch simply because they're in them:

(And yes, I even watched THE CROW [2024].)

Corporate America treated me awfully today, but at least the new trailer for #28YearsLater made my night better. Happy to revisit this world again!

Has anyone on here tuned into Dune: Prophecy, and is it worth it? I haven’t tuned into the movies yet but I saw this one was a prequel series.

How did all my #writer friends do today during their designated writing time? I got some edits done and feel good about it. But there’s still a lot of work to do on the second draft before I send it out for a critique. Onward!

The dirty little open secret to writing is that no one will ever know, nor care, how many drafts of a thing were written - people will only ever care about the crafted thing, and will, despite all knowledge to the contrary, assume it came out fully formed that way. No one thinks about shit drafts.

Make it EXIST first. Make it GOOD later.

Something can't even be okay or mid if it isn't made first.

On slate for tonight: Silent Hill 2 (PS5). 20+ years later and this f— game still creeps me out. Sleeping with all the lights on tonight.

I chewed through two really good novellas back-to-back. Now, about to dig into @bryansmith.bsky.social’s DEPRAVED series.

In the first book’s introduction, I saw something about ‘human dildos’ and I’m all in. Buckling up for this one lol

#Bluesky peeps, how are we feelin’ tonight? I did some #writing earlier and then spent the rest of it digging into #videogames.

On slate for tonight: Until Dawn (PS5). Almost finished with it. This one truly remains a classic, in my opinion.
