All roads lead to.......

It's not that he says shit like this. It's that people lap it up and he can even point to a sycophant on the front row to backstop him. "Fuckin' A, Ziggy! Well told!" The hell is wrong with people?

Questions worth asking.

I will say that was one of the most Bucs ways to go.

It's one of your earned benefits, yo.

With 10 minutes to spare, I just fired off to my editor my revisions for TO DEFY FATE, my #StarTrekPicard novel that's due out on April 28th. Now I can watch the Bucs-Panthers game while working on the next thing. #StarTrek #WritingLife

I'm just sayin....

I just received my latest checkup utilizing White House standards for measuring presidential health and fitness. I guess I'm doing okay.

Paraphrasing a joke from @wilwheaton.net about 2016: "2025? What the fuck do you call that?" "THE ARISTOCRATS!" #IYKYK

Dallas has Brad Sham. Kansas City has Mitch Holthus. Tampa’s Gene Deckerhoff has been the radio voice of the Buccaneers for 37 years, and he’s retiring at the end of this NFL season. #Bucs games over the radio won’t ever be quite the same again.

These are the voyages where the legend began. #StarTrek

2025 in review.

Made it through another one. :: wipes forehead :: #WarOnChristmas

Remembering Harry Ellis, who gave his life on Christmas Eve to protect his co-workers.

"This *IS* Christmas music!"

Look what showed up, just in time for Christmas? Again, my sincere thanks to @jonathanmaberry.bsky.social, Rigel Ailur, and the International Association of Media Tie-In Writers for this honor.

“Earthrise." My favorite photo from the Apollo program, taken on December 24, 1968 - 57 years ago today - by Apollo 8 astronaut Bill Anders during the first crewed orbit of the Moon. A print hangs in my office, oriented as shown here as it's the way Bill Anders saw things when he took the picture.

Holiday #ProTip: Don’t be the reason for a future safety brief. rah.

Remember when Biden spend his nights whining about the unrelentingly shitty coverage he got from Fox News, OANN, and Newsmax and wishing they’d be canceled? Me neither. That this shit is visible to the entire world is embarrassing. Find your balls, Congress. truthsocial.com/@realDonaldT...

Well, let's just take a stroll around the internet and see if there's any interesting #StarTrek news and--OH HAI!

"Before we get started, does anyone want to get out?" #StarTrek #TheLastStarship 😏

I think I may need an intervention. #Writing #WritingLife

It's a can't lose precaution.

I…what…why….WHAT. www.yahoo.com/news/article...

A little late, or ahead of the curve. You decide. #EpsteinFiles

:: record scratch :: :: freeze frame :: “Yep. That’s me. You’re probably wondering how I ended up in this situation.”

Just sayin...it's not looking good. #StarTrek #Nerdity

WHAT? You mean to tell me that the board consisting of his very own handpicked lackeys came to this unanimous decision all on their own? AMAZING. 🙄

“Dayton, you should totally write a holiday book for kids!” The kind of holiday book Dayton would write. Which is why Dayton doesn’t write holiday books. For anyone.

From a military book group I follow on Facebook. Someone traveling through Nashville found the USO Lounge and their "leave one/take one" free library. I spy with my little eye........................................

Serious work going on today. Gonna need proper references. #WritingLife #AmWriting

Happy 100th Birthday to the one and only Dick Van Dyke! “The funniest thing is, it’s not enough,” Van Dyke said in an interview with ABC News at his Malibu, California home. “A hundred years is not enough. You want to live more, which I plan to.” Gotta love it, and him.

When you've made it this far without being hit by "Last Christmas" and then you just up and walk right into the ambush. #Whamageddon

The #Bucs never cease to surprise me with the ways they find to lose games.

Hey, #Bucs.....

Holiday season should also include holiday reading! It's time to bust out some of those perennial classics, along with newer tales for the kid in all of us...and maybe even one or two for those of us who likely never will fully grow up. What are some of your favorites?

This is where we are now. Fonts that let people read more easily are "woke." I couldn't have come up with that on a bet.

New interview with me, from @wilcox660.bsky.social! He really put me through my paces and asked some very thought-provoking questions with respect to my writing - in particular my #StarTrek writing - but also about the franchise itself. Thanks very much to John for the discussion!

November was mostly housekeeping tasks that included copyedits and revisions for the new novel, along with some prepping for the next projects in the queue. Now it's time to get back to it. #WritingLife

Happy Book Birthday to Greg Cox! His #StarTrek original series novel IDENTITY THEFT officially goes on sale today! www.simonandschuster.com/books/Identi...

"The Trouble With Tribbles" is on in the background. Kirk: "Who put the tribbles in the quadrotriticale?" Me: "Who put the ram in the ramalamadingdong?" Cat: (stops licking self) "The fuck?"

The gloves are off for Ward Manor Game Night.

It’s not Thanksgiving without some West Wing Thanksgiving shenanigans.

Happy 39th Anniversary, #StarTrek IV: The Voyage Home, which hit theaters on November 26th, 1986!

Did the #Bucs receivers just leave their actual hands in Tampa?

In today's email: the copyedited manuscript for TO DEFY FATE, which I hope will still be my next novel and the next #StarTrekPicard novel to be published in April. Guess it depends on how bloody the pages end up being 😏 So, I know what I'm doing for the the next week or so. #StarTrek #WritingLife

Okay, #BookSky: Name a book that you bought just for the title, whether or not you ended up enjoying it. One of mine: ZOEY PUNCHES THE FUTURE IN THE DICK And yes, it lived up to the title. 😃 What say you?
