Back in Japan once again! Recommendations in comments of where to go would love some ideas!

When you overhear a doctor tell a patient he's going to go confirm an issue with the Urologist, but then tells the nurse on the way out he's going to "Chat GPT something" 🫠.

Cringing at your old work isn't embarrassing, it's growth. I was listening to my 2023 album and there's one song I can barely get through now. It bugs me in ways I didn't notice before. That just means I've improved. You don't evolve without outgrowing old versions of yourself. #music #artists

Here's a fun reality check for those wanting to promote their passion. Thank you to all 60,000 of you who follow me! Here is the shocker... if you have read my novel or listened to my music, comment on this post. The difference of 'influencers' followers vs supporters will shock you.

The last month of my life has been a total roller coaster. Live streaming on eBay every single day as part of the Canadian launch project while running the business full time has left almost no room for anything else. I am grateful for the opportunity. More tired than ever, but building.

Back to 15 hour work days for the first time in years. At first it feels exciting. Momentum. Progress. Fire. Then the compounding effect hits fast. Fatigue stacks. Decisions get heavier. Time disappears. Building isn't always glamorous. Sometimes it's just endurance.

The last two weeks of my life basically vanished. Staff theft. Constant police calls, lawyers, and digging through records. About 50k stolen in a single day. It's just exhausting. When does it slow down? 🫠 Small business ain't for everyone...

Fun fact: writers don't 'finish' books, we just eventually stop editing before we spiral into madness. #booksky

Being an author is such a strange experience. One reader leaves a 5-star review calling it the best book they've ever read. The next leaves 1 star and says they couldn't get past page ten. Same book. Same words. Completely different worlds. #booksky

It's disturbing seeing how many people use A.I. to fill out their job applications. As someone who reads about 500 resumes a week, seeing the same odd, very specific answers in the same words on most applications is incredibly disappointing... 🫠 All this to say, BE ORIGINAL! #ai #2026 #jobs

An older woman came into my shop today to sell old silver coins. The total was just over $1,000. She didn't celebrate. She panicked, afraid, declaring it would affect her pension. Wild how systems meant to help can make people live in fear when not properly educating the public.

Is there ever a point where it's actually too late to pursue a passion or change careers? Is it age, timing, responsibility, fear, or just mindset? Curious to hear real thoughts and experiences. Open conversation 👇👇

Today someone walked into the shop with a 1972 Canadian $5 error note. Wild miscut and super clean. You never know what's going to walk through the door in the collectibles world. Always fun seeing pieces like this show up! #Canada #Montreal

Huge news: Beyond The Mark is FREE on Amazon Dec 1-5. 🎄 I write because I love the world and the characters, not the money. If you claim a free copy, spreading the word so others can too would help more than you know. #Booksky #Freebooks #Kindle #Fantasy

A stylized cover art for the book titled "Beyond the Mark: Ashes of the Hero," featuring a silhouette of a cloaked figure in a dark, magical forest. The figure, shrouded in shadow, is holding a glowing sword with a vibrant red hue. Intricate patterns adorn the figure's cloak, evoking a sense of mystery and fantasy. The background showcases an eerie forest with bare, twisted trees and ethereal lights, creating a mystical and foreboding atmosphere. In the distance, a castle with spires looms against a pale, glowing sky, adding a sense of adventure and danger to the scene. The title is prominently displayed at the top in bold, stylized lettering, with a vivid gradient effect that contrasts with the darker tones of the artwork. The overall composition conveys themes of heroism, darkness, and a journey into the unknown.

I’ve officially hit the stage where the only time I can write is when everyone else is asleep. Trading sleep for silence, staying up at ridiculous hours just to get a moment alone with my ideas. Anyone else on the midnight-writer shift lately? #Booksky #Creative

I mentioned a while ago that the next Beyond The Mark "The Lost Years" works as a sequel and a prequel. It follows Winston during the 5-year gap in Flynn's memory, and it can be read before or after the first book. I'm torn on publishing it as Book 0 or Book 2? What feels right to you? #booksky

New Bluesky app icon design looks so out of place with my other apps. It's so close to being 3D but just as close to 2D. I've never gotten uncanny valley feelings from an app icon 😅... Or maybe I just don't like change. #Bluesky

It still feels surreal that people connected with the first book, and I'd love to give something back. If this post hits 500 shares, I'll make the Beyond The Mark eBook free for all of December. No catch, just a thank you for the support and a push to keep me writing. #Booksky #Author

What if Beyond The Mark became a web comic? I’m exploring a profit-share project where all earnings (if any) are split among the creative team. artists, and colorists, would you be interested in joining? Tossing the idea out there, not sure yet if its viable yet! :) #Comic #Artist #Webtoon

Big thanks to everyone for the kind words on Beyond The Mark! A lot of reviews mention it feels like D&D, definitely not what I set out for, but it's awesome to see people having fun with it in ways I didn't expect. Guess that's just how all creative work goes! #dnd #fantasy #rpg

The new White House TikTok comparing immigrants to Pokémon, set to the official Pokémon theme, is one of the most revolting things I've seen from the Trump administration. It may look trivial, but "gamifying" I.C.E. is putrid. It turns real human suffering into entertainment. I'm done with 2025.

US is using loopholes on imports to stop Canadian small businesses: if a USPS label is printed outside US soil, it won't be allowed in. A new hurdle for Canadians shipping into the States. It's absolutely wild. If you import to the states and the tracking starts with 94. You're out of luck.
