Guilty as charged: I wrote a space asshole book.

So many good stories in this one!

In which Alchemy of Sorrow author @ClaytonSnyder2 and I discuss writing grief, the emotional landscape of North Dakota, and swimming moats with chainsaws. open.spotify.com/episode/3A9Z0t…

In which Alchemy of Sorrow founder and author Virginia McClain and I talk about her story, the mythic ways authors work, and the power of fiction to help with grief. Plus an interview-bombing (and somewhat indecent) four-legged friend. open.spotify.com/episode/2qtcNZ…

In which fellow Alchemy of Sorrow author Intisar Khanani and I talk about her story, Twice-Domesticated Dragons (without spoilers), plus the bonds of writing grief, the beauty of writing it short, and the menace of garden gnomes. open.spotify.com/episode/3olX3w…

Uploaded the next audiobook to ACX and Findaway yesterday. Today, Audible's still saying 10 days (took much longer last time). Findaway? Already passed and ready to sell.

Don't know if y'all struggle to write after checking sales (and seeing they're bad), but my saving grace (bc I can't make myself NOT check) is to focus on yesterday. That data is done and complete, and somehow the time gap helps me stay analytical vs emotional--and keep writing.

Book 3 is live! And to celebrate the launch, a massive sale on the first two books--get the whole trilogy for the price of a coffee: books2read.com/doff

Just doubled my TBR: mlwangbooks.com/2023/01/28/30-… via M.L. Wang is not here

Today I have had occasion to write "mid-burgle," and it is my new favorite English.

For this book, I've decided to mullet the prologue/epilogue debate: short on top, let the back rock.

Just dropping in after 9 months of silence to say BUY MY BOOK🤣 This is how you use social media, right? books2read.com/qobb
