The best way to design a stupid T-shirt for no reason is by scheduling time to revise your book. I’m sending my final, seventh draft to my proofreader in two days and this is what I’m doing instead. My focus is, um, missing. #writing #humor

For those who have read my first book, Consumia’s Spiritual Emporium, this is the bar from chapter two. They sees a commercial for CSE and decides to cross the street and check it out. (That space is actually a Chipotle) Do you know where my friend Dave is sitting? #books

No one told me I’d get “girl reading book 5 in a hot tub” pics before I published. So, yeah, that’s pretty cool. Wide-Eyed Wyatt’s Liquid Nap. Plus, a shout out to Tony’s Darts Away. #books #hottub #craftbeer

As the Jimothy exposure slowly fades, followed by an inevitable surge when he eventually passes, don’t fall for it! He might not fully go away… I smell something coming. It might take a minute to flesh out, maybe a year

In short, in The Omnist series, Executive Saints are the upsells of the Emporium’s freemium model. I sometimes wear this pin. It’s fiction though. Right? #books #author

As a Tigers fan, I have to admit this is breaking my heart. And living in LA for 30 years, I don't hate the Dodgers. Going to a game next week. But Michigan forever. #detroit

The physicality of Yksian was inspired by Peter Steele of Type O Negative (RIP). On stage Peter would drink red wine from the bottle, and he was so tall it that looked like a beer. Yksian is a key character in five of the first six books in The Omnist series. #booksky #goth

As a craft beer nerd and author of this book, coupled with crippling self-deprecation, I find this funny.

Two years ago today I released my sixth book, The Soul Phone Collector, and one of these screen grabs is a sticker I still use as my phone's wallpaper. The other I grabbed last year on Halloween in order to capture a specific time. I think it looks cool. Today's a good day to share.

The guitar has a skin strap, intestines for strings, a bone bridge, and teeth as tuners. The body and neck are made from an extinct tree, the last cut down a thousand years ago. #books #horrorcomedy

My friend Tim just completed an awesome book on leadership for young adults. I love speaking w other writers and artists, and am stoked when their journey leads to this. This is so cool! Of course, it's a process, and it's the process we find so fulfilling. Tim, you inspire me to keep keeping on!

To celebrate the 129th anniversary of Bram Stoker’s genre-defining book, here’s pic of a friend (Ted) and me at the 100th anniversary convention in LA. Math. And a current-ish copy of said book. I don’t usually keep it in an opened coffin, but it’s a fun pic.

You see, the "A" is really a subliminal vote of approval. But it may not work now. I've inadvertently exposed and ruined it. #craftbeer #magichour #A

One of my favorite parts of creating The Omnist universe has been blending it w reality. A pop-up version of Consumia's Spiritual Emporium will exist again at Halfway to Halloween in Riverside May 1, 2, and 3. #books #cosplay

One summer, little 11 yr old Robby listened to Detroit Tigers games on the radio while sorting baseball cards, drawing players (like Kirk Gibson), and building a toothpick Tiger stadium. That was the last time they won the World Series. In a totally not superstitious manner, here are photos. #mlb

I love this time of year: dried leaves, spices, hot cider, baseball playoffs…and Halloween. I wrote this over a year ago, but it fits the season.

So few people see these posts. If you’d like to be on my email list for future books and events (literally only a couple a year), please DM me your email address. Love you!
