I have started running a casual Basic/Expert style game of D&D for people who have either never played a ttrpg or have only played modern ones. One player observed "the emphasis is on the group, not the individual. I like it" and I might have solved capitalism guys

Yesterday I posted about a publisher rescinding an offer to a writer, specifically and explicitly because two characters in a fairy tale written for an anthology used they/them pronouns. Deleted that post for reasons, not the least of which was it was advertising the press in question. Damage done.

As a reward for beginning to query publishers about my finished novel, I comissioned an artist (Mahina_Zero) to illustrate my main character, Crow. I couldn't be happier.

There's anything I've learned from the recently released Epstein emails, it's that Bill Clinton has a once in a lifetime chance to do the funniest shit ever.

Elon versus Trump? I am glad to see the "Alien VS Predator" franchise finding fertile new ground

Excited to be in Los Angeles in a few short weeks for @expositionreview.bsky.social 's anniversary event, as well as the #AWP25 conference and bookfare. If you see an exhausted man with blue hair there, there's a good chance it's me.

Tonight we discussed experimental narratives in our "Spring" in-consideration meeting, and we can't help but turn to @kevinmflanagan.bsky.social's amazing example of what an experimental work can be. Take a ride with his STARLING from our "Act/Break" issue: expositionreview.com/issues/vol-v....

Everyone keeps saying bad politics means good art. That died in the late 90’s with skyrocketing rent. Your landlord killed it. Another reason to hate the bastard. Where’s the next great music movement? At their day job on their third coffee with a mind full of hate but no energy to create.

As an author I spend a lot of time writing single lines that I hope will be memorable and evocative, but reading the #TrenchCrusade rulebook makes me feel so small when they say shit like this

Me, looking down the barrel of editing 120k words in a novel: You know, I think I should start a new novel today

In related news, a very talented friend (and better author than me) were chipping away at writing an absurdist future-dystopian TTRPG in our albeit limited free time between our respective projects, and I suspect recent events will galvanize our interest again

"Twitter openly becomes government agency (named after a cryptocurrency)'s full-time propaganda wing and is controlled by an immigrant billionaire" was not something I could have thought possible in Shadowrun gamemastering ever, and actual dragons own stocks in that game

Dems spent four years courting centrists and Republicans and ignoring anyone left of them, and what did do? They LOST 1% of the Republicans and 4% of the Independents. Establishment Democrats should retire, and go live off the millions they made in the stock market. We need a real, fighting left.

Escaping Twitter finally, and hoping I can find on Bluesky what I had on Twitter: access to good lit journals, and shitposting.
