I'm considering updating my photo to match the gnome theme of my novel

Found The Hero With A Thousand Faces by Joseph Campbell while on vacation. I feel like I need to finally read it.

I'm gearing up to pitch my fantasy/mystery genre blend to agents. First step, finding comp titles. I'm having a challenging time, since I haven't found many mysteries set in fantasy worlds, but I've got a small list to check out. First up: The Tainted Cup by Robert Jackson Bennett.

Working on my Warhammer Underworlds Sepulcher Guard. Once I figure out the paints on this model, I'll do the rest to match. Still have to do a dark wash, then corrosion wash on the copper, and finally highlight. #warhammer #minipainting

This weekend I'm novel editing. Here's another book an agent recommended to help me polish before submitting: sevendrafts.com by Allison Williams #writing

It didn't take long for me to pick the paint scheme for my new Emberwatch squad for Warhammer Underworlds. #warhammer #minipainting

3 mini figures, 2 humans in armor with bows, 1 with swords.

Doing some light afternoon reading in prep for novel editing. #writing

Three small earthquakes just off the coast of San Francisco this morning. Clearly a Kaiju is trying to break through.

Yay! I finished the first draft of my novel, just in time to claim 2024! Time for a break to reset my head before diving into edits. Total came in at 76,140 words. I had predicted 80,000, so that's pretty good.

1000% this chunk of asphalt with a partial tile labyrinth that appeared as set decoration in the opening is going to be a crucial clue in the second act.

The most important part of concert prep.

Ran across this amazing display the other night. Great Studio Ghibli vibes.

Getting ready for a choir rehearsal. Less than a week from our concert. Seems like a good time for a bit of the edible espresso bar.

Painting miniatures is my relaxation hobby. Still learning, but Gamescape, my local game store here in San Francisco, gives great lessons at hobby night.

I've written several novels, and I'm currently working on a techno thriller which I plan to shop around. In the meantime, I dressed as a noir detective for Halloween. I decided to make a fake book cover just for fun and to advertise my website/newsletter: www.ingnomevation.com

If you get the chance to visit a NASA facility, there's lots of great inspiration for sci fi and techno thriller writing.
