Ah that time of year where I google "gifts for co-workers who have every known food allergy between them, are sarcastic, are serious, have kids, don't have kids, difficult to work with, but I could be friends with, for $20-40 each"

The package protector takes his job very seriously. #Cats

Perfectly good pillow, Theo uses the armrest. #Cats

Hobbes didn't tolerate this collar for very long, but we did manage some dapper pictures while it lasted. #Cats #Caturday

I've been getting too many ideas in my head for a sequel, so I had to start putting something down. Trying to do better with show, don't tell.

#SFFChat Q3: Generally by the sun. No clocks or anything of the sort, although I gave myself an out by letting the characters describe time in "hours" as needed.

#SFFChat Q3: How is time kept or measured in your world? If time is the same way as for us, how does magic or technology influence it?

#SFFChat Q2: I'm generally hyper-aware of it, and will re-read sections to remember what time of the day the scene takes place. I rarely do time skips, so I know to know what time it is for any given scene.

#SFFChat Q2: When you write, do you tend to have a clear picture of the time of day for particularly intense scenes?

#SFFChat online I go by Racthoh, and I have a few that I would tie in rankings:

1) Night + Snowing - the atmosphere is *chef's kiss*
2) Evening - work done for the day, play time begins
3) Morning + Rain - even if I'm working the sound is so relaxing
#SFFChat Intro: Introduce yourself and share your favourite time of day (night, day, evening, morning--lunch!). Be as general or specific as you like. (:

No idea when he got in garage but apparently my car was his throne. #Cats

#FantasyIndiesNovember 13. It's the little corner I've got as my profile picture. My wife's setup is right next door, divided by a cabinet. Cat tree right behind my area, with TV and sitting area behind that. All in the basement.

At my previous job, we got free pop! Yay corporate perks. The cans would constantly get stuck though, leading to this monstrosity that I created trying to free them.

Obligatory "nice". Anyhow, page 69 snippet. The party abandons ship after they're attacked at sea, where our hero explains to some of the other survivors that he can feel the pain of the dead.

Too slow today Theo, too slow. #Cats

I knew I should've searched first, glad it isn't just me!
we're working on getting search back up, hang tight
November 11, 2025 at 9:17 PM
Odd, I can't use the Bluesky search today and it just errors? Trying to look up all of the different writing prompts just isn't happening today I guess.

Grumpy morning Hobbes #Cats

Spotted a Raven outside the house. I've left it gifts in hopes of befriending it and its future generations. Wish me luck.

It's going to hurt getting my book in front of an editor. I went through the last 100 pages tonight and couldn't think of a single thing to remove, and merely corrected some oddities from Grammarly.

My ego will sting come 2026.

Very good hiding spot Theo. #Cats

#NovemberWorldBuilders Yes! They created the world of the elves, our hero's land. The world rejected their ideals of peace and decided to sacrifice themselves to make a realm where a new race could exist.

#WritingPrompt #WritingCommunity #WriteSky
Hello, #NovemberWorldbulders! This week’s theme is GOOD and EVIL where we share morality in our fictional worlds. Today's question is about HEROES from the past. Do you have any characters who lived and performed acts of heroism before the main story starts?
