This is my antidote to the malaise. This is my tool for survival. I hold it close to my chest, and won’t ever let go.

My favorite thing about this book is the absolute freedom it allows to read, to perform. It’s not just murmuring thru a couple chapters & then leaving the rest to the reader. It’s a way to explode, to fully tell a story, to make magic happen.

In two days. My first reading from BROTHER GOOSE. Be there or be square.

Back, I think.

5 days for the English-speaking world to find $1818 so Paivapo Press (whose editor is currently on the flotilla) can start the translation of Dunia na Watu Wake and I'm worried.

I’ve stopped worrying and learned to love the simulation.

I’d love an MTV for writers. Stories & visuals, words & images. The ultimate.

Will be doing many more for Brother Goose. Maybe for each story.

I’ve missed making videos. I’ve missed the rush.

Slightly unpopular opinion: I actually dig the trailer for Wuthering Heights. Like a lot.

Tbh I never intended to publish a book this year. The idea was to finish editing another sci-fi story, take a break, and then drop it by the spring. But then in July, I wrote something totally new: a collection of 12 modern fairy tales.

Can we reshape the book world? Can we make it more fun, more fascinating? More inclusive? More accessible? Can we ditch the closed gates & vanilla affairs? Can we add music, style, glamour, & spectacle?

I’ve learned it’s so much better when I don’t try. When I just do what feels right.

Why doesn’t anyone ever talk about how kinky The Fountainhead is? Gary Cooper & Patricia Neal are electric.

Need more friends on here. Who will be my friend?

I guess I’m back.

Just woke up from a dream in which I told someone “If I don’t write, I die.”

That pretty much sums up everything.

Happy Birthday to William Shakespeare, the greatest to ever do it 🎉💗

Saw Nicky yesterday. We sat out back. He showed me the vegetables he’s planting. I helped unhook these things from a net. The sun was pleasant. He was handsome.
