Writing a book is hard. Editing is hard. Selling your book is hard. Selling yourself is hard. Finding readers is hard. Do the hard things. Do what’s difficult. Do what others cannot. Go where others will not. Because you can. Because you must. Because it’s hard.

I still think about this random desk and chair I found in the desert at times. It was gone the next week I went there, but I just liked the idea of sitting down and writing in the middle of the desert. Nothing is stopping me I suppose... Have an odd place you like go to read or write?

One of my favorite paperbacks is this 1979 novelization of the Werner Herzog Nosferatu film.

🚨 COVER REVEAL 🚨 I am so beyond thrilled to share the cover for SPREAD ME! With art by Anders Røkkum, designed by Esther S. Kim, this cover is every bit as nasty and invasive and delicious as the book itself. I couldn't possibly love it more ✨👾🫦

The cover for SPREAD ME features a geometric hab in scratchy shades of grey. The base of the hab explodes into reaching, penetrating tendrils that invade the letters of the title. The image is on an orange and yellow gradient field.

I think my floating dream detective story was orphaned. Sucks, but it’s not the first time thats happened to me. Projects and publishers come and go in this world. Against my better judgement, I might make it into something longer and weirder now.

I’m pretty sure if my cat could talk, he would sound like Bill Skarsgard in Nosferatu. *wheeze* “The midnight hour has come and passed, and still my food bowl is empty.” *wheeze* “You have three minutes to give me what I desire before a terrible fate falls upon you.” *meows non-stop”

First, I’d like to apologize to all the unread ebooks on my kindle. Especially the ones I bought, forgot about, and read a physical copy instead. My bad… Also, thank you for not staring and silently judging me like all the unread paperbacks and hardcovers on my bookshelf.
