So MGS2 was fun, but definitely a step down from MGS. I’m playing MGS3 now and oh my God what a game. I was half tempted to kill The End by setting my clock 2 weeks ahead, but I’m kinda glad I beat him the old fashioned way

No matter how well a movie poster is designed, any time I see a streaming logo on it, it just immediately looks fake to me. “Oh this looks pretty coo—a Hulu exclusive? Guess that’s nothing then”

#wiplash I made a thread about one of my gestating WIPs last year. I considered writing it as my 2nd book, but it seemed too ambitious at the time. I am excited to finish it though! Maybe as my 3rd book Anyway, here’s my very long thread about LUNARMANCER: bsky.app/profile/chri... #writesky

Meanwhile on the alien planet, I’ll bet kids are getting way too much sphere time #writingcommunity #wipsnips #writesky #earthlings

I have a feeling she’s not taking this “secret alien operative” thing very seriously #writesky #wipsnips #writingcommunity #Earthlings

I have officially crossed 30,000 words and over 100 pages of my second book EARTHLINGS! (I’m not yelling, the title just has an exclamation point in it) #writingcommunity #writesky #wip #amwriting

I’ve got a bit of a doozy for y’all today #writesky #WIPsnips #writingcommunity #Earthlings

Just beat the original Metal Gear Solid, and I have once again become Kojima pilled. Now I’m playing the original pixelated Metal Gear because I have a sickness in me that can’t be satiated

I’d always heard Return to Oz was this awful and terrifying sequel and only of those things is true! I just watched it for a podcast and I kind of loved it? The deigns and effects are crazy and it’s genuinely unsettling. Reminded me of Dark Crystal or Labyrinth Crazy so many people hate it

Y’all all need to hop on Wonder Man, that’s probably the best thing marvel has done in 6 years

When I was in middle school, I read the first few chapters of a serially release novel that I really enjoyed, but never finished. A couple years ago, I tried to find it but couldn’t even remember the title. I brought it up to a friend, last week, and he decided to do some digging…(1/5)

For no reason, here’s a list (and thread) of upcoming books I want to write at some point: - Earthlings! (5-ish total books) - Grim Specters (sequel to Portents, + 1 more to cap the trilogy) - Lunarmancer (and sequel Solarmancer) - Untitled Retro Games Horror #writesky #indiebooks

It’s kind of crazy being a 33 year old man and playing a new video game that instantly cements itself as one of your favorites of all time. Weird that it’s happened twice in one calendar year. Anyway, I just 100%’d Astrobot and it’s absolutely miraculous (the other one was Super Metroid)

Thread of my two #questpit pitches!

My book is now ON THE SHELF in my favorite book store in Jacksonville! So if you ever find yourself near Happy Medium Books Cafe, stop in and grab a copy of Grim Portents!! #writesky #booksky #indiebooks

Something that I’ve noticed in a lot of movies that always bothers me is when someone cleans up a spill, they’ll often press an ENTIRE roll of paper towels to soak it up. A whole roll, without unraveling it. That spill will take like 5 sheets at most, but now the whole roll is ruined

So I’ve been playing Final Fantasy 7 for an hour or two here and there for the past couple months. Finally finished it late last night. Feels like I just crossed Citizens Kane off my watchlist (though it wasn’t my favorite FF I’ve played) Now I might check out these remakes!

God Astrobot is so much fun, I hope they make a billion of these

Last September, I’d never played a single Metroid, so I decided to play every single one in release order (mostly). Today I have finished that mission and I have ranked and reviewed them all!! #metroid #metroidprime #samus #nintendo Metroid Ranking: ggapp.io/MechaniChris...

Longer one today but I had to include Lana’s response, right? #writingcommunity #writesky #wipsnips #earthlings

What’s your favorite game from every Nintendo console you’ve owned NES: Mega Man 2 SNES: Super Metroid N64: Super Mario 64 Gameboy Color: Pokemon Crystal GBA: Wario Land 4 Gamecube: RE4 DS: Pokemon Soul Silver 3DS: Super Mario 3D Land Wii: SSB Brawl WiiU: LoZ: BotW Switch: LoZ: TotK S2: DK Bananza

Alright time to get to work, I’ve yet to watch 6 of these but it’s really hard to imagine any of them topping One Battle and Sinners

So it’s official, Grim Portents has been selected as a finalist in the Indie Ink Awards! Now I just have to wait for the judges to determine a winner, but making it this far is still exciting! #writingcommunity #writesky #booksky #indieinkawards #indiebooks

The teens are inventing new ways to do espionage #writingcommunity #writesky #wipsnips #earthlings

Hootin and hollarin so loud that animal control circles my house in a helicopter with a tranquilizer gun

Just hit 20,000 words in my #wip Earthlings! Over a quarter of the way to my goal and the story is in full swing now. All the pieces are on the board and now I get let it all play out. At this rate, I could have more first draft done sooner than I planned! #writingcommunity #writesky #writing

For #Earthlings Cleo and Lana are two sides of the same coin. Lana is what Cleo would have been if she’d been raised on the homeworld instead of earth. Their personalities diverge greatly at first, but start to become more alike as they oppose each other #awesomecharacters #writesky #writingprompts

Don’t worry, they’re saving the heat rays for the full scale invasion. Someone is definitely gonna get heat ray’d #writingcommunity #writesky #wipsnips #earthlings

JUST finished Metroid Dread. What a final boss, easily the best and hardest of the series. This means I only have ONE MORE Metroid game to play and I’ll have finished them all! That’s right, it’s Metroid Prime 4 time

QTP with a food to show where you grew up

Every other weekend I think to myself, “what if I just didn’t sleep tonight and got caught up on all my stuff I wanna do? One day won’t hurt me” which is ludicrous. One day without sleep will destroy me

QTP with an under-appreciated Pokemon

My only explanation I can offer for Top Dog is that I listen to weird movie podcasts

What does a group of incognito alien teens do for fun? Why, watch a bunch of alien movies of course #writingcommunity #writesky #wipsnips #earthlings

This guy is probably totally chill and won’t cause major problems later though #writingcommunity #wipsnips #writesky #earthlings

Even alien voice recognition kind of sucks #writingcommunity #writesky #wipsnips #earthlings

Well in #Earthlings I just wrote the chapter where Cleo disobeys a direct order for the first time in her life, which may derail the entire invasion plan for Earth. So that’s a big decision #writingprompt

Wasn’t able to write all weekend because I was visiting a friend, but I AM about to board a plane, which means it’s catch up time

Oh I also finished reading my second book of the year! Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir. Absolutely loved it. Couldn’t put it down. Super excited for the movie though though I’ll be shocked if it manages to squeeze in all the crazy science mumbo jumbo I loved #booksky Review:

Just wrote 2000 words for #Earthlings on my flight today as well as the major incident that kicks off the rest of the book. Maybe the first time I ever felt genuinely sad for my characters. Usually I revel in fictional misfortune, but man, this was a rough chapter #writingcommunity #writesky

Hello #Bluepit! I’m the guy who always posts about his first book Grim Portents in these events. Well THIS time I’ll be talking about my second book too! I write contemporary fantasy/horror and sci-fi often with a hefty dose of humor. Excite to talk about it! #bluepithype
