Writers are like vampires-- we only go where we're invited. * Have a local con? Ask the concom! * Want a signing near you? Talk to your local indie. See if they tour. Some writers will Zoom with a book club! * Local lit fest? Request an author! We love invites, but travel is $, so we need support.

Well I am very suspicious of this because SURELY the only thing you should do when you accomplish something is immediately berate and flagellate yourself for not doing it better, and then get started on the next thing

I truly wish it did, since I really enjoy other folks' Patreons! But I don't have anything consistent to offer as tier reward enticements 🤷 occasional muse-motivated artwork that I have no more room on my walls for though? Plenty of that 😅

I have updated my website with artworks available for sale, since I can't really Patreon (that model doesn't work for my particular neurospicy). I'll be adding more as I finish them

“Non-lethal” rubber bullet blinds a journalist in one eye, leads to blindness in the second, and causes dementia and now fatal traumatic brain injury. To be clear: a rubber bullet fired AT her HEAD, while she was flashing journalist credentials and not close to protestors or police. Fatally shot.

From my flight home Friday night just after takeoff, Eastward facing, "sunset" from somewhere a bit north and maybe a little east of San Francisco. I thought the mountains all lit up and shadowed looked really cool.

I have lost the game. I finally saw a Cybertruck in the wild (in downtown San Francisco, to be sure, but wild). I nearly got run over by it since my brain did not recognize it as "car" at first. They're a lot smaller than I thought they were. Pretty sure my CRV out masses it.

You don't learn to become a writer. Learning is part of *being* a writer. I have been nominated for five Nebula Awards and I am not close to finished growing. If you don't know something about the craft? Don't be afraid to work it out. Grow with us.

Brilliant and truthful advice. They call us 'writers' and the craft 'writing' because creation requires action. Becoming a good writer requires action. Do, or do not. And there is no goal, no destination, only the journey.

Hey here's you're reminder: You're not too old to pick up a pen and learn to draw. You're not too old to learn an instrument. You're not too old to learn to sculpt, or write a book. You are not too old to create things.

Welp I can only hope no one I admire just saw me biff it in epic fashion on the courtyard steps at the Nebulas 😬 Only my pride and my chai are wounded. (And possibly my wrist, we'll see if it stays twingey)

Ok so my partner has installed so many quality of life mods on our joint play through I have no idea if this is a mod item or not... But you can "use" Soap to do that 😅 (Also if someone has the prestidigitation cantrip, that will clean up) (just don't use it on NPCs, they will attack you 😬)
