As it has now been over a year since I posted anything here, I decided I should write something. I don't know what, but I'm sure my fingers will think of something if I just keep typing.

Kiss Me When I'm Dead. Dominic Piper. "I highly recommend this book to all lovers of well-crafted detective stories and thrillers, who don't mind a little bit of sex in their crime." - Anna Mocikat, author. viewbook.at/KMWID #MustRead #DanielBeckett #PrivateInvestigator #London #CrimeFiction

Jesus. I Googled myself, as one does, and one of the questions that showed was 'What is Ross Harrison's legacy?' I was going to write, but apparently I have a crisis to experience.

The joke is on Microsoft, I never post on LinkedIn

I suppose I should mention it here, too: Church of the Assassin is FREE until the end of the month! The end of the third book is in sight... "Jane Wick in space" amazon.com/gp/product/B... play.google.com/store/books/details?id=sGGFEAAAQBAJ books2read.com/b/ChurchOfTh... #Booksky #ThrillerBooks

It is not too much of an exaggeration to say that Kat saved Aetherbound, because I was spinning in circles and she was extremely insightful.

Who needs a professional book trailer when you have DaVinci Resolve and a DAW? Me, you say? #BookTrailer #SciFiBook #BookSky

Should I be concerned that I'm still only about halfway through, even though the word count is almost the same as the finished previous books? #AmWriting #Writesky

It's time again as a notable Italian-American to note Christopher Columbus was an absolute piece of shit human who didn't land anywhere near this actual country so why the fuck should he stop the mail for the whole day Anyway, Happy Indigenous People's Day, y'all

I was looking through an old phone the other day and discovered this picture of my kitten finding out about the outside world for the first time. Late happy #caturday!

Some days, I write 4k words in a few hours. Today, I spent two hours trying to remember the word 'vigilance'. #AmWriting

I appreciate that if I type 'Au' into Google, it thinks that obviously either I need car parts from AutoDoc or to look at pictures of Audrey Hepburn. The answer, of course, is yes.

In honor of National Poetry Day, the greatest parody rewrite of all time:

The Hampstead ponds have REPEATEDLY voted to include trans women. But the officious pricks at Sex Matters don’t care what other women think and are forcing a public consultation anyway. Throw the ponds some support.

10/7 @ noon EST: "Women in Space: Claiming Power & Creating Equity" w/Dr. Mindy Howard (Cosmic Girls Foundation), astronaut Keisha Schahaff, Roddenberry ambassador Sabrina Cartan, Amy Imhoff (NASA IMAP Mission), and Nana Visitor (a.k.a. Kira Nerys on STAR TREK: DEEP SPACE NINE). bit.ly/4o3aux3

Getting there. Except, when I look at my notes and chapter planning (which I did for the first time ever with this book), I'm only about halfway through! #AmWriting

I just saw a video of giraffe chasing a safari jeep and I thought 'It's like Giraffic Park', and it's the smartest thing I've ever thought, and I'm hugely disappointed that I actually meant 'Jurassic' but somehow misspoke inside my own head.

So, I deleted the copilot AI trash from Windows, Microsoft snuck in and quietly reinstalled it so it's in my toolbar, but the system still pretends it's not installed so I can't remove it again. What an amazing user experience.

The upside to the unending flood of AI sewage is that I spend less time on social media. Atrocious IG descriptions that don't even belong to the video, pointless and fully AI generated videos on FB... Fine, that's a lie - I spend just as much time, I just tut a lot more.

What would it mean to you if I described something as an 'interleaved dual-trilogy saga'? And does it sound pretentious? #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #AmWriting

Time for a rare marketing post, since I'm 60% through the last of the trilogy! "Harrison plots like a genius, filling the story with twists that readers won't see coming." ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "Jane Wick in space!" books2read.com/ChurchOfTheA... #ThrillerBooks #SciFi #Reading #Booksky

Re-upping this again, please spread far and wide:

"All authors" is perhaps worthy of the US Defaultism subreddit, but if your book is registered with the US Copyright office, look into this. #WritingCommunity

My brain informs me that it's time for my bi-monthly rant inside my head about how the Russos didn't know the meaning of the word 'Assemble' in Endgame. Is there a reason for it? No. Do I even care much about the MCU these days? No. Is it getting in the way of my writing. Yes. Am I stopping? No.

Yeah, basically this

Phew! I was beginning to worry about paying my mortgage, but I just got an email from a lawyer representing a nationality of my country, and I've got a huge inheritance coming! What luck!

I think it's important that everyone know I just spelled manoeuvre correctly first time. And again here! And now I'll buy a lottery ticket. #AmWriting

I should probably have mentioned the briefly reduced price for the first in a trilogy (except on Amazon), which is TODAY ONLY! Love, fear, and death await among the stars... books2read.com/FearOfTheDark #SciFi #SciFiFri #SpaceOpera

So apparently, if I don't keep encouraging people to subscribe to Clarkesworld, they don't. clarkesworldmagazine.com/subscribe/ All new subscriptions go towards increasing staff pay. They deserve it, so I can't be silent.

It doesn't matter how many years I've been writing, I still believe myself when I think 'I'll remember that tomorrow. No need to write it down'. #AmWriting

Bloody hell…!

Oh, hey. Very much worth supporting if you like contemporary science fiction and fantasy.

Got my first refund through Google recently for *quadruple checks notes* ...my free book.

Block anyone who implies it’s crass to try to sell art bc of “Everything Going On.” Motherfuckers there is going to be a LOT going on FOREVER, and artists sell art AS THEIR JOB. Do you go to fuckin McDonalds and scream at the staff “HOW COULD YOU BE MAKING FRENCH FRIES AT A TIME LIKE THIS??” Grow up

I just realised that the novel I finished this week is my 10th novel! This and one other aren't part of the main series, but still, it feels like a milestone. Now, if only those books helped me pay my mortgage... #WriteSky #writingcommunity #writers #books

For anyone under the illusion that Word spellcheck is useful, today it wanted to change 'breathtaking' to 'breath-taking', then to 'breath taking', then to 'breathe taking'. It also changed 'whoever' to 'whomever' and then immediately shouted at me that it should be 'whoever'. #AmWriting

Dear music people, please stop putting sounds in your music that sound like my front door opening. Thank you.

I have openings in my editing calendar. I do primarily developmental edits of novels and novellas, and I have over a decade of experience. More info and contact link here: www.kathowardbooks.com/editing Please feel free to reach out with any questions!

I've been referred to as Roy Harrison in reviews before, but Ross On Harbison is a new one.

Somehow, I'm going to make the deadline after all. This one's only going to be 85-90k. I suppose that means there's little excuse for my main series books to take about a year and a half to finish... #AmWriting #WriteSky #WIP

Just proofed my stories for PRISM! Can’t wait to share this 1980s retro spy thriller with y’all!

I lost the argument. I made some good points, but in the end I just couldn't convince myself not to make yet another batch of cookies, this time with fudge chunks.

0.99 this month! Start the trilogy today! Or tomorrow. "The reader will be neck-deep in the quagmire of lies, deceit, action, and murder from the very beginning of the story." ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ play.google.com/store/books/... books2read.com/ChurchOfTheA... #ThrillerBooks #scifibooks #SummerReading #BookSky
