Love waking up in allergy season and feeling each and every one of the million pieces of pollen the ragweed has lovingly shoved into my eyeballs

Walking home from the coffee shop and someone tried to give me a free spider plant. Yeah, I know how this works. First ones free. Then before you know it you’re repotting succulents in back alleys

There was a wasp nest in the bathroom vent and they were getting in. So I got to have an adventure on the roof with a shop-vac and a spray bottle of soapy water. Nest gone, no stings, I need a sit and a brownie

New book is out! Queen of the Rose Throne is the sequel to my first Age of Sigmar book, The Last Volari.

My usual coffee shop writing cave has 80s pop in heavy rotation lately. Which manages to be fun while also making me feel old

Had a great time at #GenCon especially the fantastic Writers Symposium! Now trying to catch back up on sleep

Early Saturday at GenCon. The food trucks aren’t busy yet so its pierogis for breakfast time

I am in the GenCon

The audio version of my latest story is out! clarkesworldmagazine.com/audio_07_25b/

Back from the Launchpad workshop, which was amazing! Though I do enjoy having oxygen again

I just backed Uncanny Magazine Year 12: Fly Forever, Space Unicorns! on @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/unc...

It's an Age of Sigmar-focused Black Library Weekly this Monday, with some other Heresy, 40K, and Old World bits and bobs.

In addition to the Tess launch, the Fortune Hunter Tess Theme Pack is also available, and look at the baby purple worm familiar!😍

My novelette ‘Welcome to Kearney’ is out in this!

I have a new story out in the latest @clarkesworldmagazine.com “A Land Called Folly” can be read below: clarkesworldmagazine.com/singh_07_25/

It only took one bus, two planes, one train, then a walk to the hotel, but I have reached StokerCon

Constantly pissed to discover that the best way to finish something is to start it

Four new Black Library books just got announced. I’m pumped for all four but gotta give special excitement for a bunch of Abraxia from @cjpt.bsky.social and @mikebrooks668.bsky.social writing Aeldari Corsairs. Bring on the books! #WarhammerCommunity www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articl...

I can't spend all day complaining about Google's AI maligning us, so I'll take this moment to handle some overdue marketing. Subscribe to Clarkesworld here: clarkesworldmagazine.com/subscribe/ Only human art and writing. (No matter what Google tries to claim.)

THIS

Always good when reorganizing my desk ends up with me needing to buy a new hacksaw

To everyone else in the GenCon housing scrum, good luck!

Watching Chopping Mall, an 80s movie about killer robots, and half the ads are for AI crap. Seems fitting

Radical publishing notion, right here: if your publishers are making a living from publishing and selling your books, then you, the author, should be making a living from writing them.

Heads up folks. You want to write for Black Library? Here's a potential way in: www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articl...

That thing where I have to search every fantasy name I make up for a story to make sure some drug company hasn’t already used it for indigestion medicine or boner pills

And it appears I will be ringing out 2024 with a rousing case of Norovirus. Huzzah!

Taking a quick break from the book I’m doing to crank out a short story with a tight word count. The shift from writing expansively to every-word-must-be-justified is a little jarring

I have eaten too much. Time for pie.

Combine it with an ATM, and people can purchase indulgences at the current market rate

Time to escape reality for a bit and play some Warhammer 40k, a game where a fascist empire is propped up by keeping the catatonic rotting corpse of its emperor barely alive

I figured out that I can use a standing desk and treadmill to walk(slowly) as I write! So of course I immediately overdid it and now I’m sore as hell

Hello new and old friends! I write MG, mostly fantasy and historical fantasy, and my first non-fantasy novel comes out in January 2025! SCATTERGOOD is historical fiction set in Iowa in 1941, when almost-13-year-old Peggy is having a challenging year….

That terrible feeling when you sit down in the coffee shop to write and realize you forgot your headphones

Got rid of my Twitter account. Haven’t really used it in months but I want nothing to do with it now. That site has become another example of how at some point the most wealthy usually decide their power is best maintained by tearing things down rather than building them up.

This seems appropriate

There are a million posts like this today, but if you’re in the US, vote, and please vote for Harris and not chaos. There are SO MANY reasons, but for me the two big ones are my kids. Let’s hand the next generation solutions, instead of more problems.

I voted early! And got a really cute sticker!

Did some phone calls for Harris. As an introvert, it’s not exactly fun, but I have to say the organizing and training is great and the tech makes it much easier.

Those weirdo 4channers with all the “40k God Emperor Trump!” memes are getting their wish: a decrepit old man who’s barely even a corpse being propped up in a simulacrum of life while everyone pretends he is wise and powerful.

My town does Pride in September because of the university. Which usually means better weather. But of course it’s 90s today

It’s National Chocolate Milkshake Day! Immediately followed, unfortunately, by Ice Cream Headache Recovery Day

I don’t know, seems to me that JD Vance might not want to say something must be true cause he saw it on the internet

I’m at the coffee shop trying to write, but it’s loud and crowded and distracting because of a book club meeting. They’re also playing 90s music, so I’m waiting for Alanis Morissette to come on so I can slide past the irony event horizon
