Been awhile since I read an entire book in one day (thanks, #adulting 🤬). This time, it was #ThePostman by @davidbrin.bsky.social. It's my 5th time and it's still one of my favorites. ❤️ Thank you, sir!! #AmReading #BookSky #GreatBooks #BetterthantheMovie

I consider myself incredibly lucky to to have the inimitable @jonathanmaberry.bsky.social not just as a mentor but a great friend, too. Catching up on a little light reading, thanks to @mystgalaxybooks.bsky.social, my fav #SanDiego bookstore. Thanks Kelly Ann(I think? 😱) for your help! #BookSky

The massive book sale/signing is open to the public, so come to the #CheyenneMountainResort and get your copies! More info soon. #IndieAuthor #BookSky #AmWriting

Reup: One thing many are missing abt Social Security whistleblower complaint is this: DOGE--including Big Balls, who has ties to criminal hackers--put ALL American Social Security data on an insecure AWS site AFTER SCOTUS GOPers intervened and let them do that. www.emptywheel.net/2025/08/26/a...

Finally reading SUPERFANS by @patflynn.bsky.social, learning how to connect better with my fans. All about being authentically YOU, so good to know I've been making smart choices this far. Good stuff! #SPI #superfans #booksky #indieauthor

Illinois is launching a first-of-its-kind legal hotline for LGBTQ+ individuals — Illinois Pride Connect. As the only state in the nation that will provide free legal advice to protect the LGBTQ+ community, we'll help fight ignorance with information and cruelty with compassion.

Some seriously on point comments here. Also, a cool gaming rig.

FINALLY got to see #FantasticFour today and it lived up to the name. Just a great movie all around. Way to bring it back, @marvelstudios.bsky.social! #HappyFan #FF4 #MovieSky #Comics

New post up on Patreon and newsletter just went out today summarizing the craziness of the last month or so. SO MANY WINS! Thrilled and excited for what comes next. #IndieAuthor #BookSky #AmWriting #OpalKingdomPress #WordFirePress

Thrilled to share that my 20th short story—a #WhenIronWakes prequel called "Wild-Sky Dancers"—has been accepted into the TALONS AND TAILS griffin anthology coming next month from Opal Kingdom Press! 🥳🎉 Can't wait for y'all to read some backstory on this world. #AmWriting #Elwys #BookSky #IndieAuthor

Happy to have an article about #writingburnout in The Relatable Voice Magazine! "The Seven-Year Gryphon: What My Fantasy Novel Taught Me About Creative Patience" is free at this link. If you've ever struggled with burnout (and who hasn't?) it's worth a read. #IndieAuthor #BookSky #AmWriting

Honored to speak to the #ApexWriters group tonight, humbly following (sort of) in the footsteps of the inimitable #DavidFarland. Make sure to check out this amazing group and up your #writing game! #AmWriting #BookSky #IndieAuthors

#DontSleep on #PacificDrive from @ironwood.bsky.social & @kepler-interactive.bsky.social! Not just a great game (says the 40+ yr gamer), but the soundtrack is #BANGING. 2 complete albums of alt-rock/edm/house music that's all fantastic. LOVE this game/music! #IndieGames #GreatMusic #DontMissIt

Actually, make that TWO podcasts! I talked last week with @paholder.bsky.social too, and he was so funny and fun to chat with. I'm honored to have been on the show of such an accomplished broadcaster! #AmTalking #BookSky #IndieAuthor

Got interview by the most excellent Alan R Warren and Joe Goldberg on @nbcnews.com "House of Mystery"! So much fun to talk to these guys. #AmPodcasting #IndieAuthor #BookSky #HopeLives

Just wrapped WILD-SKY DANCERS (7,900 words) for submission to EXTRAORDINARY BEASTS: GRIFFIN, due out later this year from #OpalKingdomPress. I'm hopeful this Elwys-based story (from the world of my novel WHEN IRON WAKES) will be chosen for such an on-brand antho! #AmWriting #IndieAuthor #BookSky

I got interviewed by the most excellent @booknotions.bsky.social! Thanks Bianca! #IndieAuthor #BookSky #AmWriting

For my 50th bday, I bought myself something I've wanted for many years. Completed "Bags 1" tonight. This is gonna be a BIG build. Oy! 😳🤣😎😁 #LEGO #StarWars #Brickbuilding #HolyCraponaCracker

@jamesgunn.bsky.social Dude. DUUUUUUUDE. You *killed* it with Superman. Wrote him perfectly. And I'mma need a Mr Terrific movie STAT. Only reason this is my 2nd fav Supe movie is because Chris Reeve will always be my Superman, so S1 is king. But yours... 👨‍🍳💋

#Superman, when written well, is my favorite #comicbook character. By all accounts, David Corenswet is impeccable & @jamesgunn.bsky.social is a fav, too. So I'm—ahem—SUPER excited to see the movie today for my bday (tomorrow). But Chris (@christopherreeve.org )will always be MY Superman. #SupeLives

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?

🎼 HUGE NEWS! 🎼 “Sonata in Z Minor” got a “HELL YES” for the REQUIEM anthology from @superstarswriting.bsky.social (only 0.038% of submissions)! AND 1st time sharing a ToC with my friend/mentor @jonathanmaberry.bsky.social! Feb 2026 release! #WritingCommunity #AmWriting #AnthologyNews #WritingWins

Accurate. #BookSky #IndieAuthor

This is Fani Quita. She is trying to get rid of her hiccups with puppy eyes. We cannot fathom how this isn't working. 12/10

Lesson in writing-while-white: Hawaiian uses ʻokina (glottal stop) + kahakō (macron) to change meaning. Not optional. Not decorative. Language & culture deserve more than guesswork. Hit the link for a great resource. How do you handle writing unfamiliar languages? #BookSky #AmWriting #ʻŌleloHawaiʻi

I go to this conference every year. I have to budget all year long, but it's so worth it. Best writing business seminar bar none. Use code JASON4995 for $100 off. #BookSky #IndieAuthor #LearntoExcel

In need of localization/translation services for English/Hawaiian. Paid gig (but not $$$, to be clear, more like $). Message me privately or comment here if you've got a resource. #BookSky #IndieAuthor #LocoMoco #DoingItRight

Happy to announce that I now have a publicist! Thanks to Mickey Mikkelson of Creative Edge Publicity, I hope to be getting out to more conventions, on podcasts, and the like. Great news today. #BookSky #IndieAuthor #Discoverability #LetsTalk

The 50% sale is back @ 100covers.com. Worked w/ them for lots of covers (including the new The Dying of the Light hotness) and they do great work. 👍👍 way way up for this company. Use code DAVE when checking out (thanks to Dave over at Kindlepreneur for the discount). #BookSky #IndieAuthor #CoverArt

Looking for beta readers for my 40s Hawaiian noir thriller. Would need feedback by August 1, likely sending out by June 30th. Lemme know if you're down. ESPECIALLY looking for Hawaiian cultural sensitivity readers. #BookSky #IndieAuthor #AmWriting #LocoMoco

This is an insurrection.

I'm honored to have 2 of the #BestAuthorsEver as great personal friends. The most important books in my #messylibrary get their own shelf. Kevin J. Anderson & @jonathanmaberry.bsky.social, it's a thrill to have my own books share that shelf with yours, even just there. #BookSky #IndieAuthor #SoCool

I use sock monkeys in my writing workshops (I'm not going to explain how, not in 240 characters), and a few special attendees have had monkeys named after them. One of them is Anton Strout. Anton, we miss you &honor you every year with a monkey in a argyle sweater. <3 #novelarchitects #antonstrout

Some regulatory and startling advice from one of the best #authorcoach talents in the business, Becca Syme. Highly recommend listening to this or watching the video. #BookSky #IndieAuthor #amWriting podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/q...

Wrapped up revisions on "A Drop of Rain", 1 of my favorite shorts. Classic hard SF. Think Clarke, Heinlein, Asimov (as if!). Super-advanced tech and politicians vs. ethical scientists. 🔥🔬 Original cover! Part of a larger project I can't talk about, but EXCITED! 👀 #IndieAuthor #BookSky #AmWriting

My friend Steve's new book is one of the best (if not THE best) historical/modern action-thrillers I've read. If you like history, mystery, or action (or all three), you can't go wrong at just 99¢! #BookSky #HistoricalFiction #IndieAuthor

1yr ago we lost the woman who made me want to be a writer. Tonight, I wrote 585 words on a story she loved the idea for, #FallenKingdom. Thanks mom, for the inspiration, the love, and the joy you helped me find. We'll miss you forever. 💔 #ThisOnesForYouMom #AmWritingAgain #BookSky #IndieAuthor
