It is not okay for creative people to be assholes just because you like their work.

No, you can not separate the work from the artist.

Celebrating their work and ignoring who they are keeps them in power.

Stop it.

Yes, this is in response to some celebrities who've passed away, and to certain "authors" whose work continues to receive TV and merchandising deals.

I choose to celebrate creative people who are as caring as their work. I won’t give words or support to those who aren’t.

Friday’s my birthday. Woot!

As a gift to everyone, I’ll be sharing two new Delve posts, plus video chapters that cover the entire storyline so far.

Hope you enjoy!

Anytime I finish revisions on one chapter, it always takes me a few days to start the next one. My mind needs time to adjust for some reason.

This is where I'm at now.

This is your reminder folks. No, normal people cannot compete with an Olympian. It's another level, and it's good to be reminded of that occasionally. Next time you watch a pro sport and think I could do better than that!

He stepped gently, but his boots still gonged against the polished tile floor. His eyes darted, sweat forming on his brow. Tam didn’t think much, but he did think he didn’t want to be here. A few more steps— he froze as a voice like thunder shook the air around him.

“What curiosity is this?”

This is your reminder that Bluesky has fantastic nuclear block functions. Don't bother feeding the trolls, block and move on. Don't give them the power.

Blue checkmarks seems a little too Xitter, but if handled right, great. I didn't have one of them there and I probably will never have one here.

I don't see if ever affecting how I relate to people here.

I dont mind people posting links that are behind a paywall. I do wish you would state that in your post, so I don't waste my time clicking on something I will never be able to read.

Thank you.

Started the revisions on Chapter 3 of Book 3. I had to ask myself, ‘My god, who wrote this?’

Then I remember—oh yeah, I did.

Delete. Rewrite. Repeat. 😁

Tam's skin prickled as he searched for the voice. "I—I brought what you asked for," he stammered.
"I don't recall asking for a body—an unconscious one at that."
"No. You wanted what was in cell 9. Whatever I could find. I found him."
"Alive? Impossible. Show me." A mist formed before Tam. #SiP

Reminder to Myself:

On Xitter: 1,600+ followers.
Bluesky, Mastodon, Threads combined: 863 followers.

Interactions on Xitter? None.

On the other three? Consistent likes, replies, shares.
With half the followers, I still connect socially—not from algorithm quality, but post quality.

Revision on Chapter 3 is going well. This section of the story is action-packed and features a setup that has been in my mind since book 1. Hopefully, I can bring it to life the way I've envisioned it.

Unfortunately, the account claiming to work "at top literary agencies", and sharing "the craziest unsolicited manuscripts we receive" — showed in my feed.

I have blocked them. Not only is this completely unprofessional, but it's cruel. Don't step on people's dreams, even if it's not yours. #booksky

The mist spun, shifting from murky white to dull brown. Tendrils coalesced, forming a tabletop. Tam's nose twitched as the smell of burning wood crossed it.
"Place him there," the voice boomed.
Tam pressed the table to test its solidity, then lowered the body, shaking his head. He hated magic. #SiP

The biggest thing I realize while working on revisions- how much I under-write my rough drafts.

Anyone else have that quirk?

I'll admit, today's post was a challenge. Striking the right balance between action and description within a limited word count is tough. Hopefully, I managed to pull it off, and you’ll enjoy this next installment!

"Move." A low, resonant command slammed into Tam. His muscles obeyed instantly, shoving him back. His mind thrashed, a trapped bird wild to escape, yet his body was a puppet dancing to the voice's tune. A bald figure in white, devoid of even eyebrows, now occupied the space he'd just vacated. #SiP
