Here's what I've been up to recently: mailchi.mp/cc60846942ab...

Final chapter on revisions of my novel WHITE BONE SPIRIT - I'm so excited to be finished with this project so I can move on to something new! It's great to be writing regularly again though. The last few months have been crazy!

HAPPENING NOW [ indiebook.sale ] 💙📚

It was a pleasure to meet you at the JAB dinner last week @mauricebroaddus.bsky.social! Looking forward to checking out Sweep of Stars. I love a good space opera!

Great meeting you and your spouse at the JAB dinner last week @aahabershaw.bsky.social! Hope you had a great worldcon!

Hi @dmoren.com - nice to meet you at the JAB dinner last week! Hope you avoided the con crud!

Great seeing you at the JAB dinner last week @erinmevans.bsky.social ! It was super cool to bump into a fellow Rainforester and role-player and discover we're at the same agency!

Hey @kacealexander.bsky.social, thanks for being a great dinner companion last weekend and for allowing me to meet your animal companion. You both were the best!

🧵🪡 I have now seen more than one 'TikTokers turning book writing into brand making' endeavours and I've noticed that all of them seem to a) value the story less than the brand, b) claim to be indie while looking down on actual indies and purporting their books as 'more akin to trad but ~BETTER~',

Congratulations, @timchawaga.bsky.social - this sounds awesome and I can't wait to read it!

I'll be @seattlein2025.org tomorrow for Worldcon! Hope to see some of you awesome folks there.

Got a nice shoutout for my RPG writing today. @questingbeast.substack.com.web.brid.gy featured my blog on how the initiative and combat system in Mothership RPG helps to turn every violent encounter into an opportunity for storytelling. www.thenovelgamemaster.com/2025/05/stor...

I originally wrote this two years ago. It has only become more real (and more frightening) than I could have guessed at the time: Three Weird Futures with Generative AI: A Thought Experiment shannonrampe.com/2025/06/18/t...

I opened Word and wrote Chapter 1 at the top of a blank page today, then proceeded to write a thousand words of new fiction. It feels great to start a new book! (Just trying to ride that feeling now cause I know it will be feel like the worst thing in the world pretty soon!) #amwriting

I love #mothership but I wanted more hooks for players to use when building characters, so I made a list! www.thenovelgamemaster.com/2025/01/moth...
