LAST NIGHT AT LAKE BLACK They thought it was just another party out at the lake. But when a lone oarsman drifts across the black water, the night takes a darker turn. A short horror story written, narrated, and produced by yours truly. Watch it here: youtu.be/LK89_X5rXuw?... #horror #audiobook

RIP Ozzy! He sure did put on quite the farewell party. This is one of my favorite songs of his. The lyrics are also very fitting for a final sendoff over the mountain, so please join me in dedicating this to Ozzy Osborne, father of heavy metal! youtu.be/yWfSyhcJyHw

So, I’m halfway through Buffalo Hunter Hunter by Stephen Graham Jones, and all I have to say is: that scene with his father? Wow, just wow.

I think it's time we resign ourselves to 'literally' as a contronym. 'Obviously' as a filler word, however, I will resist to the end. If you have to say it to me it's not bloody obvious.

Just found this picture from Xmas, but don't wanna wait a year to post it lol. It's me!

🤔 When people wear thick glasses, why doesn’t the sun set their eyeballs on fire?

3 years ago, a serial killer claimed four lives of First Nations women in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Today, one of the victims was finally named. To honor her memory, the Premier of Manitoba sang a traditional First Nations song. Fucking gut-wrenching.

My mom got me a subscription for this TIME Life Mysteries of the Unknown series when I was a kid. We didn't collect the whole set, but I had over a dozen books and read them ALL the time. Choose 20 books that have stayed with you or influenced you. #booksky #bookchallenge #20bookchallenge

I've been using Mac computers since 2002, and I almost never update to newer MacOS versions unless absolutely necessary. Usually new OS versions offer little in the way of improvement, while also adding bloat that slows down the computer. But now I finally gotta upgrade after 5 years with Big Sur.🥸😔

Ever since I finished reading Daisy Jones & The Six, I can't stop listening to Stevie Nicks. I'm obsessed. She's just so great!

Somehow I've managed to lose two dental fillings in just a few months after moving to Canada. WTF's up with that? 🤬

I've been playing guitar for almost 30 years, but I don't play hardly any songs. I just play music; it sounds great to me. What is the writing equivalent of this?

Was Dracula originally based on Walt Whitman? Bram Stoker famously wrote this “love letter” to Whitman that suggests he may indeed have been his muse for his now-quintessential vampire novel. In this light, Anne Rice’s homoerotic vampires make much more sense… www.themarginalian.org/2019/01/09/b...

The shift keys on my keyboard are slowly giving out. It started out not registering right shift + N. Now, the only way I can type a capital Y is with the Caps Lock. I'm lazy and pretty cheap, so I figure I'll wait until at least one or two more letters fail. I'm a writer though, this is painful lol

Picked up Horrorstör by Grady Hendrix at the library today. Funny, I never knew it was an IKEA gag. The book is pretty, almost coffee table book material. My first Hendrix novel ... I've seen a lot of mediocre reviews actually, but I dig campy horror so let's give it a shot! 🙂

I often wonder how some people can read sooooo many books in one year. I swear I spend more time thinking about what book to read next than many avid readers spend reading two or three thickass novels. I'm incredibly picky when it comes to the content I consume.

Damnit Canadian radio, why'd you have to get Nickleback stuck in my head again for the first time in over 20 years? Oh wait: "This is how you remind me of what I really am..." 🧐

Ha! I watched this over and over again when it came out in '22. The YT algorithm finally re-delivered something good. Check out the fever-dream of Toro y Moi's 'MAHAL' Listening Party: www.youtube.com/watch?v=EiPB...

You know what I really love, guys? FUNK MUSIC. But, being a white guy who mostly hangs out with heavy music types, I rarely have the chance to talk funk. So hey, tag me if you ever wanna chat about funk musicians. I absolutely love that shit! ❤️❤️❤️

Just started the audiobook for Daisy Jones & the Six, and HOLY CRAP they have different voice actors for every single side character. Such a cool presentation!

Was recommended to read Italo Calvino by an author I respect, so I picked up "Six Memos for the New Millennium" at the library today. Not his fiction, but rather a collection of five literary theory essays about what qualities Calvino sees defining literature in the new century. Interesting stuff!

If there's one thing you should know about me, it's that I love sharing Lord of the Rings memes!

Officially posted a "I've moved to Bluesky" notice on Twitter. I'll still keep my old account open, but only using it for work and to post my book news. I'm only really creating new content on Bluesky now, while Facebook's just for keeping tabs on family and sharing LotR memes.

I live in a city that is notoriously difficult to make friends in. I moved here just 4 months ago, and I already have a regular game night scheduled with a new group of friends. How did I do it, you ask? By being proactive. By putting myself out there and offering to organize games. It’s not so hard

What a badass paint job

One of my favorite things about having moved back to Canada after over 2 decades in Korea: LIBRARIES. Seriously, I never knew how much I missed having a nearby library chock-full of English literature. And it doesn't cost a damn cent. Libraries are awesome!
