See? Snarky treefolk are entirely scientifically plausible! Reject the notion that cognition is a purely brainbound affair 😉 nautil.us/what-plants-...

But you don’t have to take his word for it. (You really should, though)

Are you a Felix fan yet? If you’re ready for your next obsession, why not take a Chance? #booksky www.amazon.com/dp/B0BRW4SXD4 Thanks to @cnrowan.bsky.social for the new term for my fans! Wasn’t aware of it before

Got a most wonderful review of the first Felix from C.N. Rowan @cnrowan.bsky.social — author of the badass imPerfect Cathar series — the other day. Quite thrilled by what he had to say. Check it out ! halfacrepond.com/2025/03/c-n-...

Some fine wordsmithing here… can’t say it’s inaccurate, and really I’m kinda glad his face had all the features you’d expect and none of those you wouldn’t. But yeah, some days it’s like that.

Fashion magic! Sassy-pants always stylin. Whether stilettos or JNCOs. (Yes, that’s why they aren’t wet up to his calves) Find out more in Felix. #booksky

Both. I’ll go back and reread for voice, tone, what happened…etc, but then get drawn back into the story because… I write what I want to read and see in the world but Do Not… so once it’s done, I read and enjoy it. #writersky

Keep the faith. You never know how your words affect people. Make sure the ones who need their comfort, encouragement, wisdom, whatever… find them. #booksky

He’s not wrong… only wrote 250 words tonight but I’m now far more adept at medieval alchemy & the Tarot…as both apply to this novella… than one ought to be. Also, a bit of Latin. And, received a delightful reference book today, The First English Dictionary of Slang, 1699. Tomorrow, 10k… I hope 🤣

This is my favorite research find ever — the NASA Broom Method. It inspired the vibe for my use of Alchemy in Felix Chance… postmodern problems require primitive solutions at times. #amwriting #research #alchemy #felixchance #booksky

Never, ever put off buying book one of something because book two isn't out. That's a good way to ensure book two is dropped by the publisher. Sure, a couple of big noisy boys have let you down. Most of us can, do, and are burning to in fact finish what we started, given half a chance.

I love it when a plan goes off the rails entirely and makes an even better story 🤣🤣🤣 Makes me look like a better writer for “planning” all this out. Totally meant to do that. So yeah, Off Chance, chapter 8 is done. “Death Rides a Pale Lawnmower”

Meet the characters of Felix Chance in memes! Hank sure did. The charming devil gave up a bit of eternity for one new soul set to be sacrificed. Now he fiddles with things around the Last Chance and dotes on his surrogate kin.

What’s your choice? Personally, I prefer grandma’s shotgun shell recipe…

It’s not a self insert if each one only gets a bit of treato trauma!

Something to think about… there are hundreds, if not thousands, of talented indie authors out there your friends will love to read.

New milestone! Chapter six is done in the third Felix book! Just past the halfway point at 28k… celebratory sazerac pictured.

The best encapsulation of the Felixverse I’ve found… it’s a fictional world made entirely of pockets… #amwriting #ufauthor #felixchance

Well, hi everybody! Might be a lil quiet right now, but rest assured, I’ll figure this one out, too! Currently finishing up the 3rd Felix book — Off Chance. Hoping to launch it end of year along with taking Felix WIDE now that Vella has demised. Also check for more serialized stories soon…

Ya know, if only a handful of people ‘get’ my work, that’s fine by me. (Don’t get me wrong, I’d love millions of readers for whom my words resonate) I write for those no one is writing for. Those for whom the words become a light in the dark, for whom they become their favorites. That’s #whyiwrite
