Blue lobsters are very rare: 1 in 2 million by some estimates. But SPLIT COLOR LOBSTERS are 1 in *50* million. This lobster is a chimera of two fertilized eggs that fused together, with two distinct genomes: male on one side, female on the other. (📷: Woods Hole Science Aquarium/NOAA Fisheries)

Ever had a static shock hit exactly in a paper cut... ⚡⚡⚡OUCH

Issue 7: Integrity — another #photography / #fiction pairing for you: “Solomon and Vera” by Adam Jon Miller, with “About Alice” by @uteorgassa.bsky.social “All I see is a freight train of disaster speeding at her in the dark, horns a-blaring and search light cutting ahead. He is bad news.”

I love publishing new #cosmic #horror in @fraidycatpress.bsky.social. But I’d love to pay authors better, and I can’t do it alone. Consider subscribing. It’s the best way to help bring more great cosmic #horrorlit to the world (and read great stuff too!) fraidycatpress.com/product/fcq2...

During last night's walk I practiced observing my thoughts but was too distracted Do you have a favorite way to ground yourself through stressful times?

I'm taking extra time for brainstorming the next scene tonight!!!

Forgive me if I care way more about the school shooting that also took place today than I do about Charlie Kirk.

Hey, what's up with books having sprayed edges these days? LET ME TELL YOU THE STORY! I was there! Thread: 1/13

My story Night Island is out now in Pulp Lit Mag (pg 191) This is a really great read for anyone needing a lusty, witch story For anyone wishing they could burn it all down issuu.com/pulplitmag/d...

Seriously, creative folks: Don't be afraid to let people know your stuff is out there for them, or worry that "now is not the time for that." People are stressed and freaked out and looking for the things that will give them a moment of rest and joy. It is EXACTLY the time for what we do. Tell them.

"I have such a great idea for a novel, how do I--" Sit down and write it. If you can't produce finished work, your ideas aren't worth the neurons you had them with. Do it, do it, sit down and do it, or it doesn't get done.

My dual custody creative schedule is working out pretty nice. I edited a flash-ish story this weekend and sent it for critique and also managed one new and very terrible poem M-F I revert back to the novel :)

Started Horror in the High Desert on a whim then had to binge the entire trilogy as fast as possible, and get my spouse hooked along the way

Getting started on something new!!
