Wow, this trilogy by Megan O'Keefe impressed the shit out of me. The tension, the characters, the romance. Chefs kiss

The Indigenous People of North America have decided to go back to calling the Gulf of Mexico, β€œChalchiuhtlicueyecatl”. It is what the Nahuatl People originally called it as it is the domain of the goddess Chalchiuhtlicue, who is assoc w/water bodies, including the Gulf of Mexico.

The hard days with writing are when the motivation is there, the words are there, but the body and the brain are sandblasted to heck because of allergies. 😀

I recently got diagnosed and I was a hyper intelligent kid with good grades. I'm inattentive type ADHD and presentation in women is quite a bit different from standard criteria. Check out "How to ADHD" and "Dr Tracey Marks" on YouTube. 😘

Most of the people reading this have a sense of how bad things are right now.

So for encouragement, here's a thread with examples of folks fighting back.

And yet here they are walking through the section dedicated to "superheroes" and browsing like its going out of style. Is it a mating dance? A "I'm too cool for this, and you should be impressed"? I enjoy joking and word play, but this isn't it. I will continue to observe until I have an answer.

My favorite part of working retail is people watching and people eavesdropping. Because of that I have come to be aware of "The Fakery" where two people will walk through my section and one of them will openly insult random stuff (ugh superheroes) and the other will follow along and chuckle

TheπŸ‘‡πŸ½πŸ’° chart the super-rich don’t want you to see β€” taxing the very top (like we used to) could erase our debt in a heartbeat, if anyone was really serious about it.

They aren’t. They just want to use it as an excuse to cut programs and cut their taxes more.

It feels like everything is broken. And I'm not sure how to fix it except to keep on trucking on the path I'm on. Create community - stand up for people - live my best life

Kinetics book 4 word count update.

11,529 out of a projected 100,000. Aiming to write anywhere from 8,000-10,000 words a week on the high end. This may end up being lower if I have planning or revamping to do.

Here I am, once again. This book ain't gonna write itself! Victory or Hope is in the hands of alpha readers and while I spend some time ignoring it, I'm all in on book 4 of Kinetics.

Kinetics Sequence Isiro Intro #kinetics #sciencefiction #middlegrade #youngadult #fiction #books Hello friends! I've been fussing with Adobe Express and made this as an intro to the Kinetics Sequence. Eventually I'll have some character videos as well. S...

Ok I made a serious book trailer. I figure I might do some shortie character trailers.

Do you have book trailers that you love? Yours or others? I would love to see what other people do.

Which is the best/or fave of the flash fiction you've written?

The stories I've heard is that people start with shorts (on their own dime usually) and after a proof of concept or proof of quality pieces running the film festival curcuit are able to make a case for feature length. πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ that's anecdotal at best tho.
