Same for the children!

Yay, the cat lived!

It’s in the escape pod, isn’t it?

I admit I did not see that plot twist coming.

This alien is WAY too big for that one little molt. How the heck did it grow that fast?!

And there it is, the iconic scene of the little alien bursting out of someone’s chest.

Okay, these people are stupid breaking quarantine.

Filling a gap in my pop culture knowledge by watching Alien tonight. Loving these sets, they’re so detailed! #nowwatching #movienight

Orion is a joy to work with! And even though the book currently isn't available anywhere, I love this mock cover & it's exactly what I hoped for it to be! 🤩 Maybe one day my manuscript will slide in between his beautiful pages!

FINAL DESTINATION X THE DYBUKK X FREAKY FRIDAY For Ava, death seems so much easier than life without her mom. But when her mom shows up at her own shiva to possess her, she starts to realize there’s a lot more to life than death. #ghostpit #W #YA #H

Gravity Falls X The Owl House Do you want to know a secret? Alice doesn’t recommend it. Secrets lead to curses and accusations, quests and fighting for your life. Admittedly, they can also lead to unexpected friendships and a world of magic. Proceed with caution. #ghostpit #mg #uf #q

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House. Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity. They are not the same.

Audiobook listeners! If you don’t already know about libro.fm, I highly recommend it! You can choose which bookstore your audiobook purchases support and if you subscribe, you get a monthly audiobook credit. We can divest from the Zon and support our local bookstores! 🔗 below. #booksky #readingsky

I learned something new & thought I’d share how to view how Goodreads users shelve your book! On your book’s edition page, replace “editions” with “shelves” in the URL! This provides insight on how readers categorize your book, which could help marketing, too. #authorsky #writingcommunity

I only wrote 185 words today, but I hashed out a few plot points with my wife. Fingers crossed I can add more tomorrow and build some momentum again. #WritingCommunity #AuthorSky

I passed out bookmarks and character art stickers to promote my upcoming book this weekend. I met with two employees with a local indie bookstore.
