Emerald City Comic Con this week, find me at the Broken Eye Books table, 25009 on level 3 of the Summit building. I've got 15 copies of the new Spellmonkeys hardcover and exactly two of the paperback, so if you want one come early.

Matt Youngmark (RCCC AL-204) @youngmark.com · 05/02/2026

Launching a big ad push for Spellmonkeys, but the AMZ sales page is crying out for reviews. How well this goes will literally decide whether I continue the series (which I want to REAL BAD). So if you want more of Frinzil and her friends, please go drop a quick review on Amazon! bit.ly/4qkvMqG

Made the mistake of saying "let's get down to business" when I started making buttons to give away at Orycon this weekend and now I have the entire fucking Mulan soundtrack stuck in my head so that's how my day is going orycontemp.tezhme.net

This one took some doing, I’m not gonna lie. But it is currently my favorite thing I’ve ever written, so if you’ve been waiting to read the rest of Frinzil’s story, I’m confident that I did you right. www.amazon.com/Dungeon-Dogs...

The 12 pack of store brand seltzer water i bought came with a MONEY BACK GUARANTEE. How many people could possibly be taking them up on this, the only way it could fail to meet my expectations is by not being carbonated or having a flavor

Vonnegut successfully sued to get his name taken off the movie, and it tanked real hard, so I don't think a lot of people knew it had anything to do with him!

Woke up at 4 am and tried to get back to sleep, but all my brain wanted to do was think about this diagram, is this anything

Venn diagram with two circles: Heinous crimes Republicans falsely accuse Democrats of committing, and Heinous crimes Republicans are literally committing themselves. They overlap almost perfectly, but the small sliver where they don't is labeled "controlling the weather."

All the Earth Wind and Fire love today is making me think about Robot Dreams, a truly wonderful animated film that prominently features the song "September." It's so good! (Full disclosure: feels for reals, maybe watch it somewhere you're comfortable weeping openly)

Apparently, I'm a straight-up Democratic Socialist. Which I think mostly comes from my belief that even though it's incredibly difficult to enact meaningful change through the democratic process, the alternatives seem significantly harder.

A chart from leftvalues.github.io that shows where I stand on various axes of progressivism, and sums me up as a Democratic Socialist.
