Unfortunately this is still happening, and the messages are getting slightly more human-sounding (still very fake tho). Please watch out, and know that I am NOT soliciting writers beyond just being open to queries like normal. My slush is robust and of very high quality and keeps me plenty busy!

When Minneapolis felt under heavy siege, people from everywhere helped and reached out and it was really heartening and made a difference. Memphis deserves that too, all the more so because there appears to be a concerted effort to keep their occupation out of the news

Oops forgot about BlueSky but CROSSROADS is OUT. I’ve wanted to do comics since I was 12, so this one is a big deal for me. Thanks to Blizzard for letting me work with Cassidy and Ashe again. Also, Hunter Bonyun’s artwork and Matt Mercer’s voice work are both beyond stunning. 💜

To families sheltering-in-place every week DESPERATELY needs funds to keep going. Lots of other food sources are drying up and the need is going to be great for a long time to come, even after the drawdown ACTUALLY happens (it has not happened yet)

It’s getting all blizzardy up in the Northeast. Better charge that e-reader and stock up on books! Luckily, the ebook of THE LOST RELIQUARY is still on sale for only $1.99. (Offer also available in areas not about to get buried in snow ❄️ 😩 ⛄️ )

You could actually structure your moral code around the idea that law enforcement doesn't exist to execute people. You don't have to create perfect victim narratives, you can just refuse to accept that the state gets to kill people.
