Buzzed off of 2 Bloody Marys on the Amtrak Pacific Surfliner listening to Two Star by Mk.gee is making me feel hope in ways I can't quite describe.

Got the first cover pass for A Rescue in Vizen. Ömer NEVER misses 🔥🔥🔥

Any other authors print temp copies of their manuscripts to annotate? It's always easier for us to do final rounds of edits if we have a tangible book in hand.

I've been em-dashing since book 1 of The Eighth Chant and I will not stop now just because it's AI's favorite punctuation 😤

Can't believe it. Just finished the third round of edits of A Rescue in Vizen. Need to fine tune some things, but this book may be coming real soon ❤️

Everything I listened to Feb-Mar

Everything I watched Feb-Mar

The music biopic double feature was a mistake because the monkey movie absolutely outmugged the Bob Dylan film in absolutely every single way.

I don't write books to make money. I don't make music to make money. I don't draw to make money. I do these things because it's my nature to make art, whether I share it with the world or not. Making money is great and all, but nothing beats creation for creation's sake.

Enough with the Ghibli slop - here's a tattoo I got a couple weeks ago.

Alright before s3 I'm starting on this app where are my #TheWheelOfTime people 👀👀

Check out this teaser I helped produce.

Weirdest dogs I've ever seen.

Already 100 pages into Fool's Quest and I feel like I won't be smiling this entire book 😭

Curious about how to approach The Eighth Chant Series once book 3 is released? You can start with either book 1 or 2, then make your way cleanly into book 3. A RESCUE IN VIZEN releasing early this year!

What a loss. I remember seeing David Lynch at a barbershop my first year living in LA. He was wearing jean overalls and was absolutely splattered, arms and legs, by white paint. Seeing him, then sitting on the same chair where he got his hair cut before me, made the city feel so magical.

This month we are donating 100% of our book earnings to various causes supporting our neighbors affected by the LA fires. Seasons of Albadone: books2read.com/u/b5l8OR A Contract in Sol Forne: books2read.com/u/31QKan Signed: marche-warman.square.site

Onto our third (and semifinal) editing pass of book 3 and YALL!!! THIS IS A BANGER!

I can't believe I'm going to finish Farseer this year...

If you're looking for a quick read to cap off your TBR in the next 2 days before the end of 2024, consider reading Seasons of Albadone. In its 200 pages you'll find dark magic, a rich world, complex characters, and heartbreak. books2read.com/u/b5l8OR

My brother knows me well. Christmas vinyl haul.

The top films I've seen this year.

Every 2024 album I rated higher than 4 stars on RYM in order of most to least replayed (Mag Bay being the only 5/5).

The worst part of Twitter becoming a worst platform with a terrible algorithm is that I missed out on participating in nearly an entire year of indie book giveaways. I never even saw the request for participants posts 😕

If I could give 1 piece of advice to young authors or any professional is to remove any modifiers like "aspiring" from your social media bios. You're immediately selling yourself short. If you're doing the thing, whether you're published or work for a company or not, then you are the thing.

Having been laid off from the gaming industry this year, Amir has such a heart of gold. One of the most empathetic people in the industry. Absolutely deserved!

Balatro sweep!!!!!!!!!
