Bluesky world! I just typed the last words on the first draft of my novel! 75,313 words, 57 chapters. It is a #thriller/#horror story and a gruesome tale of revenge.

This is my 6th book, but the first one I am going to try and get professionally published. #writersky #booksky #writingcommunity #WIP
I wrote this poem for my wife to read at our sons kindergarten graduation:

It’s been such a joy
My sweet little boy
Just seeing you learn and grow
The things you will see
And the person you’ll be
Will be wonderful baby I know

Here’s another photo from my Black Bridge photo session. Random junk on the side of the train track. Thought there was some beauty in it. #photography

First beta reader finished my book already! They said it was gripping and they kept wanting to know what would happen next. They loved it. #wip #writingcommunity #writersky #writing #author

I did a whole session taking photos on my Nikon Zf on Monday. The best photo ended up being the 0.8MP one I took on my Leica Sofort. 🤷‍♂️ #photography

Call me paranoid but all these people online who ask for a premise or a short description of your book make me feel like they’re gonna plug that into AI to make a bootleg copy of your idea. #writersky #amwriting #writingcommunity #wip #author

Seamus’ bread adventures are a warm glow of light in this dark timeline we find ourselves in.
Recently I had the amazing- and yet very bizarre- experience of going to Xbox HQ as a visitor. I had been invited by Asha, who is very cool it turns out, to have a hike and hang out a bit. I’ll probably talk more about that another time.

But first let’s talk about microorganisms.

I give 160 f*cks in my manuscript. What is your opinion on swearing in literature? #WIP #writersky #writingcommunity

When you are one of my beta readers, you get a thick brown envelope with my manuscript in it, and your name written in blood red ink on the outside. #WIP #writingcommunity #writersky #writing #author

I was taking photos this winter of my kids throwing snowballs and I caught a glimpse of this ephemeral midair heart.

I think my new marketing strategy as an author is to just post photographs and art and hope people notice in my bio that I write books. More of a soft approach. Trying to push my books on people makes my soul ache. Here are some more pictures from the New England Aquarium. #photography

Visited the Currier Museum of Art in Manchester, NH yesterday with the whole family. We are members. It is an amazing little museum with an impressive collection. Highly recommend if you’re ever in the area. They even have a scavenger hunt for kids! #art #museum

I like this picture from the New England Aquarium a lot. I feel like it captures the space well. #photography
