Breathe In, Bleed Out A) isn't recommended yogic practice, I don't think, but B) it's a flat-out blast all the same.

Heading off to shape young minds at school after spending the pre-dawn hours doing murder in my manuscript:

I’ve reached the point in drafting my new book where I miss my characters when I’m not writing. It’s the best kind of flow & I can’t wait to dive back in with them.

My daughter just finished Candy Cain Kills by @brianmcwriter.bsky.social and immediately started Kills Again yesterday. It’s a proud parent moment, for sure.
