My indie publishing business is going to start putting proceeds toward towel donations to animal shelters. I confirmed with an employee of the San Marcos Animal Shelter that all sizes are useful. If you want to support then buy my books or even just share this post. Thanks! #bekindtoanimals #veteran

A gentle reminder if you've received an invoice from a Freelancer/Self employed person which is due before Christmas. Be a love, and pay it today.

This hen hasn't been able to sit on eggs in the coop without being disturbed, so l provided her accommodations in the garage. #lookoutforeachother

#3157 A helpful tutorial

Our second book is about the alphabet and alliteration! This children’s book is for young readers, and was a fun collaboration with the illustrator to determine what wacky things the animals do. Hey, media! Want an interview? I’ll tag my local @kvue.bsky.social

| loved Final Fantasy Tactics Advance 20 years ago, so I'm excited to be playing Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles. @square-enix-games.com put some effort into providing a solid remaster. #roleplayinggames #videogames

We published our 20th book! Join me as I discuss each, from the first to the twentieth. This is the first, The Knitting Chicken. Are you with the media, and want a story for Veterans Day? I’m available! #indiepublishing #veteranownedsmallbusiness

Are you hyped about the new MtG Spider-Man set? There's even more fun in the set if you aren't aware—by playing Pauper Commander! Sure, you can use my two commander suggestions in EDH but they're also legal in PDH. #tcg #mtgcommander

I don't think Rusty likes the fit of my TriPine. By the way, I need to order another since this one become my work hat. #cows

Making them wear high-visibility vests over camo is such a good joke you couldn’t write it

Today is National Relaxation Day! Take a moment after being on this app to focus on nothing except well, nothing. 😁 #nationalholiday #chill

The teen numbers of the English language should start with teen and end with the number. It would prevent asking, “Did you say fifty or fifteen?” Instead, we could say: teenthree, teenfive, and so on.

San Angelo town hall heated up over immigration and "Alligator Alcatraz." A 91-year-old woman told Rep. Pfluger, "You're here to listen." Crowd applauded, then tensions soared. Walkouts and tough questions left unanswered.

Here’s a bit of insight into how we make our picture books, using our next book as an example. Illustrator @pizzadad.bsky.social provided this visual storyboard! #collaboration #create

One of my favorite MtG Commander decks is one I built recently using one of the least popular commanders from Aetherdrift. #magicthegathering #tcg

I accomplished a goal I set for my business! This is me being happy about something and feeling good about what I’ve accomplished. Sometimes it’s good to say that? I have plenty more goals set, as this 20-year retired soldier sets forth to do more. #goalsetting #indiepublishing #makingthings

ok pdh heads to answer your BURNING QUESTION: yes we are going to be porting this rules changes to pdh. uncommon vehicles are going to be legal commanders with the release of edge of eternities therell be a more official looking announcement to come but just want to get ahead of the speculation

We have another duckling! Up until now I’ve only purchased them. More than expected, this one joins the growing family as the first hatched that is all yellow in color. I find it odd because none of the adults have this color. Maybe that’ll change once they get their feathers.

on this the RELEASE day of final fantasy magic the gathering here is a thread of all the pauper commander decks ive built featuring new commanders from the set, both on-stream and off. just a really great set to highlight pauper commanders role as a fundamentally accessible format

Here’s my product suggestion for @gamegenic.com using their newest @alteredtcg.bsky.social premium art sleeves. I think it’ll also work with @unlimitedffg.bsky.social. I’m a fan of Gamegenic stuff and would love to see this.

I played in an @alteredtcg.bsky.social pre-release last night. It was a fun time! I went 0-3, but learned something from each game I played that’ll make me a better player. My Altered TCG friends and I enjoyed the new cards we experienced for the first time, and look forward to the new deck builds.

I bought an MtG Tarkir: Dragonstorm pack today and these two cards in it are guiding me to build this Pauper Commander deck. It won’t be a ridiculous amount of hawks, maybe a dozen? That and some token creation could make for a fun “go wide” strategy. What say you, #PDH community?

Hello, MtG kith! I keep checking @scryfall.com for any Final Fantasy Tactics creatures. Is there any news? I don’t want to consider when Cloud Strife was an optional character. Even just one legendary creature will satisfy my justification for building a deck with as many FF cards as practical!

This is my Memorial Day rememberance for SSG Brandon W. Farley, SGT James D. Pirtle, and SPC Ryan C. King. #memorialday

Hey my Pauper Commander #PDH friends: would this Tarkir creature make for a fun spell slinger deck?

Here's my @alteredtcg.bsky.social card reveal! Whispers From the Maze looks to be a lot of fun. I'm thankful to Equinox for providing me this opportunity. The card is cool and one that I will definitely use. #WFM_reveal #AlteredWFM #AlteredTCG #mythology

I participated in my first TCG tournament! It was a local Tumult Championship for @alteredtcg.bsky.social and I had a great time. With solid gameplay and good wholesome fun, if you’re a mythology geek like me, then I highly recommend it. Also, @gamegenic.com provides official accessory support.

I like my evening walk with the goats because the ducks will join since they consider me a guardian. #countrylife #eveningroutine

If you’re a trading card game geek like I am, then I recommend @alteredtcg.bsky.social—especially so if you’re a family looking for a game. Ask your local game store, and get some slick accessories from @gamegenic.com! #tcg #familytime #alteredtcg

Here’s a brief on how I use @gamegenic.com to organize and transport my @alteredtcg.bsky.social hobby when playing cards with friends at my LGS! #tcg #organization #alteredtcg @tolariancommunitycollege.com

When we worry about the declining rates of literacy and a lack of reading skills, it's often about children. But how often are adults reading these days? And what are we reading? A new NPR/Ipsos poll finds out.

This is really unfair to everyone who just voted for him for the racism.

Thank you, @barnesandnoble.com for hosting me! I’ll be here this afternoon signing books, reading my books to kids, and talking with any parents who want to talk about books. #sanantonio #localauthor #veteran

The young employee at the fast food joint didn’t acknowledge my joke! I was asked for a good name for the order. I said Travis, which happens to be my name so I might be biased. 😆

I love learning about stuff, and that includes something I misunderstood previously. And while I may at times be stubborn as a well, a goat, I also like improving and that comes from education. #alwayslearning #goats

Sometimes I’m asked why I have pet goats. This is Matilda, and she and her sister Juniper are Nigerian Dwarf goats. They’re both spoiled! I wanted pet goats after learning a life lesson while deployed to Afghanistan, and being fortunate to learn some about their culture. #veteran #payitforward

I’m a fan of factions in TCGs, and am anticipating #MtGTarkir partly due to the clans. As much as I like these shards as well as wedges and guilds, I’d also like @wotc-news.bsky.social to provide more specific support for the families of Streets of New Capenna and the teams of Aetherdrift.

I was an MI soldier, I write kid's books, and my CONFIDENT I AM book bundles are meant as a way to connect with the veteran community! They contain picture books and you can find them at my site (NOT at Signal). #veteranowned #indieauthor #secret

Here are a couple things I do with the covers of my picture books that may be due to the uniform standards I developed during my time in the Army. Maybe you’ll find them helpful. Book illustrations by @davidbuist.bsky.social #picturebook #military #indiepublishing

I was in Walmart this weekend and noticed there are anthropomorphic Play-Doh characters. They remind me of the M&Ms characters. Why are both groups of six with four guys and two gals?
