Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 3hAs a child, I longed for adulthood. In my ignorance, I believed my days as an adult would be filled with the joys of my soul, no one to tell me how to spend the time I hold dear. Then dishes appeared. And vacuuming. And cat boxes. And laundry. And cooking. Dadgumit. 🤣 010
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 08/10/2026We cancelled our Prime subscription recently, but we decided to watch #Carrie while it’s still active. I love Mike Flanagan’s work and am enjoying his adaptation of Stephen King’s “Carrie” so far. Midnight Mass is still my favorite so far. That show was phenomenal! 020
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I didn’t realize #BannedBookWeek is here! To be honest, I had no idea it was a thing. Here’s to learning new things! 🍻 Looks like I need to start 1984 today! 020
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Oh, cool! I use Proton Docs or Scrivener, depending on the length of the work. 010
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 02/10/2026What do you use for editing software? That’s neat that it shows how long you worked on something. 100
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 30/09/2026I am here to announce that all files (from all accounts) have been moved from #GoogleDrive to #ProtonDrive! All files on Google have been moved and deleted with the utmost contempt. Do you like privacy and security? Check out @proton.me. There are alternatives out there that won't steal your data. 000
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Oh, how true that is! I tend to play them when I’m in meetings. Who needs to pay attention in these dang meetings, anyway? Ha! 010
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Over the past two weeks I have barely written. I can make every excuse under the sun, but the fact is that I have not been intentional with what free time I do have. I suspect I would feel less guilty if I wrote even a few words or edited a sentence or two. Baby steps, I suppose. 000
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 30/09/2026What about Connections? Wordle and Connections are my favorites, but I don’t tend to carry a streak. 101
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 29/09/2026I have a fairly palatable list of about nine questions I’ll give, yeah. 110
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 28/09/2026I’ll likely give them the entire draft once it’s ready to have them read through the entirety. Comment on parts and send feedback as they see fit. It may be overwhelming at first, but I imagine that’s a part of the process. 110
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Thank you! I have not presented it yet to anyone, but my partner and some (extremely honest) friends will be the first to read it. 010
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 27/09/2026All of the above, really. However, I’ve decided that I want my beta readers to be friends I know that will be unbiased. I have some truly honest people in my life 😆 110
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Thank you! I suspect the second draft will be where I find some beta readers, yes. I’m new to the industry, so still learning a lot. 120
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 25/09/2026He sounds like an utterly vile, disgusting, loathsome person. I have thoughts on the American prison system, but this man should not be allowed to roam freely. 010
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 25/09/2026I finished the first draft of my #novella. A part of me struggles with the idea of ending it where I have. I suspect going through and working on the second draft will help with some of what I feel are loose ends or ancillary bits. 240
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 24/09/2026This. Right here. Yep. A balancing act on a tightrope; the floor on one side is pillows, the other spikes 😆 010
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 24/09/2026I wish you and your relevant feeds all the best, most uplifting of content! 110
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 24/09/2026I had forgotten you can do that! Thanks for the reminder! 010
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 24/09/2026My feed is all politics lately. I need to engage with more #booksky and #author stuffs. It’s important to stay informed, but this political environment can only be taken in small doses at times. 4401
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 20/09/2026“Shocking”? Really? Who the hell is shocked at this statement of fact? 000
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 18/09/2026I suppose that could have a bit to do with the older the story being, sometimes the less easily accessible information is to confirm. They are good if you detach from the occasional diversion from what we know is true. 000
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 18/09/2026This may be a hot take to some, but it seems to me the #Monster shows peaked at the first series. The creative liberties seem to become more and more. 100
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 15/09/2026This is elder abuse. To be fair, it’s Mitch, so I don’t really care about him, specifically. Elder abuse is still wrong. 000
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 15/09/2026I plan on grabbing more of your works in October! 110
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 15/09/2026If you haven’t read Nicholas Kaufmann’s *The Hungry Earth*, then that needs to be on your to-read list! Fantastic story, great characters, and some seriously suspenseful moments await you in this wonderful fungal horror! 110
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Diaper Don: “These are not the people I interviewed to serve on the United States Supreme Court.” Translation: “These people are not willing to go along with my corrupt ideas! Oh, the betrayal!” 🤦♂️ 091
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 15/09/2026I love to read and write, but I also love video games. #RuneScapeDragonwilds 1.0 release notes has got me feeling nostalgic in a profound way 😳 #IContaintMultitudes 000
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 14/09/2026I need to look at my phone less and open a book more. At times, as I scroll through copious amounts of content, I justify to myself that I’m looking for books to read, ideas to turn into stories, or people to pay attention to because they’re cool. The truth? I’m bored and could be reading a book. 000
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Couldn’t have said it better myself! #FuckAI 010
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 12/09/2026I may have bought two 😬 I got the standard and then I really wanted the collector’s edition, so I grabbed that, too 🤷♂️ 110
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 12/09/2026We picked up two elderberry shrubs today. I am over the moon for the future of these plants and what they mean for the critters that frequent our yard 🤘 #nature #gardening #nativeplants #elderberry 050
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 09/09/2026We’ll have to catch you next time you’re in New England, then 🫡 010

Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 09/09/2026I got excited, then realized it’s not the Springfield near me. I assume you’ll be at the Merrimack Valley Halloween Book Festival again this year? 100
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 09/09/2026Every news outlet and journalist should be reporting on the blatant lies of this vile, atrocious, pathetic excuse for a bag of bones. Calling him “human” is an insult to humanity. 010
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 09/09/2026There are so many good books in this world and I want to read them all. . . . 000
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 08/09/2026A little look under the hood as I learn how I will use #Scrivener. I'm a tad inconsistent on word count per chapter, so I may need to re-work a few things. Do you use Scrivener when writing long-form? I like it so far, but look forward to #Proton making improvements to their #ProtonDocs formatting. 001
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Awesome! I look forward to grabbing a copy! 011
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 08/09/2026My move from #Google to @proton.me has gone very smoothly and I can say there are zero regrets. If you like security, privacy, and telling monopolies what you think with your actions, I highly recommend giving #Proton a look-see. 010
Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 04/09/2026I’m 35 minutes into #ISwear and I’m already crying and rated it 5/5. “No apologies.” ❤️ 000

Robert T. Strong @robert-t-strong.bsky.social · 04/09/2026I’ve yet to see classic Doctor Who. I started watching the newer stuff with Christopher Eccleston and enjoyed through Matt Smith, but I haven’t started the newer stuff, either. I’m way behind 😆 110
