Before he died, David Lynch said: "Joshua, everything you and your stunning wife @jmkeep.bsky.social write is amazing. Everyone should buy your work. Whether it's under that name, or your @alexisabbott.bsky.social and @candyquinn.bsky.social pennames, where you combine sensuality and artistry."

Early morning walk in the snow! We had a great stroll. Laszlo especially, who ate his fill of snow (and then some) on the journey, and yelled at everyone shoveling their driveways. Bonus points if you can find my Cthulhu pin, marking me as a member of the Infernal Order of Dagon.

Long before I became a professional author, I wrote for fun. At times we wrote millions of words a year of pure dreck, just because it was fun to do so. I don't understand why anyone would get into the arts if they didn't enjoy the process. There's easier and more guaranteed ways to earn money.

From my mafia romance WIP. #WIPSnips #AmWriting #MafiaRomance

the girlies have spoken: we want anti-capitalist hitman romances. we want vigilante assassin romances. we want fuckable fugitive romances.

I felt like a girl with a crush, but I’d never had a crush before. Women were made for men’s enjoyment, not the other way around. Maybe I was just in love, then. Might as well be. Love was almost as unthinkable as sitting in a slinky dress next to a mobster. #WIPSnips #amwriting #writesky

Writers! How do you handle non-linear chapters? I typically follow the flow of time as I go between the FMC and MMC chapters, but I wanted to try experimenting with adding tension and having the same event told through both perspectives. #amwriting #writesky

My face burned with shame and humiliation. My body ached, muscles coiled tight. I’d been so coy, trying to wrest a modicum of control from the men, and failed. I wasn’t a person; I was a tool used for hazing the new recruit, and it was all my fault. #WIPSnips #MafiaRomance #amwriting

Authors love libraries. Please use them. Please support them. Libraries are amazing. 📚

If you're using generative AI to brainstorm "ideas" then you're damaging your own creative development. The trick to having good ideas is having loads of really shit ones first!

I've been writing fiction for thirty years, been doing it almost daily with my partner for nearly 24 years. I don't know how to give advice that a budding writer might find useful. That feels like peering into the murky depths of primordial history now. #AmWriting

I will never, ever get over this.

Loves a mafia movie that starts with the main character dying then goes back in time to find out how they got there. Can you guess the movie? No, not that one. The other one.

Now watching The Apostle for the billionth time. I wonder if I should post a list of movies I'm rewatching for inspo for my next mafia romance and see who can guess the story... #amwriting

Rewatching The Drop and I just love a compassionate guy who can be rough when someone threatens someone who can't fight back. Killers with a code. Leon: The Professional. The Boondock Saints. Inject it into my veins.

Wild Card is such a great action flick. Gambling movies are always so stressful but the fight scenes make up for it. Jason Statham is so good. 🎥

I agree! I set out onto 🦋 today to see if I could find some of my favorite #monsterromance and #alienromance narrators because I want to support them! There are so many books that I only listen to because of the narration and their voice acting. The Union(s) should've totally blocked this.

Really like this line from my new #WIP Bodrov brought out a sleek, dark pistol. Finally, the last of the oxygen Lyn’s kiss gave me was spent, and I suppressed the chill that went down my spine. #amwriting #mafiaromance

I'm not a big car girl but I'm watching this as research and the Aston Martin Valour is so fucking sexy. #amwriting www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxNf...

Honestly I think bluesky is the best social media for me because I am really garbage at marketing, but really good at just shooting the shit. Here's a few pics of my husband @jekeep.bsky.social and I a few years ago. Guest appearance by @jmargotcritch.bsky.social. #Booksky #Promosky

#WIPSnips for today. Working on a new mafia romance that is currently untitled. #amwriting

PSA: #darkromance can be sweet & wholesome 👏😫 "Love ain't a transaction. You don't have to earn it or pay for it. You deserve my love because you're you. But if you don't love me like that, I'll be your friend. I'll be there for you and I swear, I won't touch you again." #booksky #romancelandia

My idea for the cover was also 'tattooed hands of a man wearing a suit' and oh. This movie really crept in under my skin, obviously.

Laszlo wants to run and play. He doesn't care that it's a miserable wet hell scape outside.
