No email yet. I’m DYING

I’m running on 2 hours of sleep after traveling back home, but today I find out if I can officially attend a 20 week workshop I received a partial scholarship for, and I’m so tired but so eager for that email. Fingers crossed!! I was chosen with 9 other people from all of NE so I’m really nervous

My biggest dream before I die is to have one of my pieces adapted into a short film. I never really considered it a possibility until recently, and damnit I’m gonna make it happen

For the first time in YEARS my hometown is having a white Christmas! It was so nice to wake up and see snow instead of rain and mud 😅

I can’t decide if my new coat makes me look like Nosferatu or a super cool stylish girlie but I’m okay with either

Friends I have a Stokercon question that is giving my anxiety. If I use a preferred name, how does that work with the whole badge process? I heard that my badge name has to match my ID so I am Stressed

StokerCon friends- they added a few panels to Sched!

I somehow popped a blood vessel in my eye and I’m gonna look like I just lost a bar fight in all of our Christmas photos

I’m getting so excited for StokerCon!

So sad to hear about James Ransone, may he rest in peace 🤍

Planning some workshops for the Salem art gallery! I’m thinking of doing them over zoom as well, if that’s something you’d be interested in!

Winter is all fun and games until you get two back to back colds with three days of peace in the middle

Missing Coco very much today. I miss how she would meet me at the bus stop when I was little. I miss how she’d scratch her back on the rocks in the driveway. I miss how she would stick out her tongue if you gave her a good pet. I hope she can feel me sending her the biggest hug.

I’m not sure if that counts as “cheer”

In the middle of the night I read Surprise by Richard Matheson and it did indeed surprise me

Look at what my wife got me! 😭 it’s so beautiful, I feel like I shouldn’t even touch it

Guys, should I watch Good Boy? I know he doesn’t die but I’m still hesitant

Before I had anything published, this song was my bio. As I did more and more I kept deleting some of it, and every time it felt bad. I think it’s important to keep these words close to me, no matter what. Here’s a little timeline cleanse, some words of wisdom from Mister Jim Henson 🤍

If one more person makes a joke about me being light skinned I swear to god

I’m so excited about pub day that I’m giving away a copy!! If you’re a fan of vampires, you might want to cuddle up with High Stake and Bloody Business this holiday season 🩸 Give this a repost if you’d like to be added! And for an extra entry, reply with your favorite creature feature monster!

Productive day!! Went to a Christmas ghosts workshop, cataloged some of the galleries library, and finished a story! 3 hours left of office time, so we shall see where that gets me

Brainstorming with the wife:

Thinking about reading House of Leaves because I’m bored and want a project

If you have the time to give it a read, let me know what you think! (Even if you hate it, I won’t be mad I promise)

In my house his name is the minch, not the grinch

I woke up to see that my story “Two Sizes Too Small” is up on @gavagai.com !! I loved writing this one, as it’s inspired by my day to day experience with OCD. I really hope you’ll give it a read, and let me know what you think! www.gavagai.com/posts/333

Rest easy Matt 😔 thank you for building such a wonderful community here

I ordered this at 3am and forgot about it until they made the shipping label. I can’t wait for it to come 😂

Update: it was quite the hospital trip but she is okay now❤️

Everyone please send happy thoughts, my mom had to go to the hospital with some surgery complications. I’m so worried but I know she’s strong

The bone of unimaginable Christmas joy and wonder

Reposting the giveaway for the morning crowd ❤️

It’s been 5 months and I’m still thinking of the end of Animal Farm

SCAM ALERT AUTHORS! A book club emails to let you know your book has been chosen. They express an interest in having you join a chat at the end. When you respond, they let you know there is a SMALL FEE and would you like to move forward with next steps? GTFO ‼️⬇️

Just got hit with the "we regret to inform you but your Bluesky account has been suspended" scam which is rich considering that a) I'm ON Bluesky and can see that it's not, and b) I don't even HAVE a Discord Anyway, be careful out there 🤘🏼

My name is officially on the Barnes and Noble website and I think I’m gonna pass away

I’m going to readercon!! Woo!

I think I just got the most heartwarming example of “if they wanted to they would” My auntie left school before she fully knew how to read, and has taught herself but has dyslexia as well. This morning she asked if any audio versions of my stories exist because she really wants to read them 🥹

The lore is I’m stupid
