Up and writing. I added 748 words to the novel, a sort-of experimental thing, even in the strange, #epistolary world of #SgtJanus. I think it worked. It looked good on the silver screen in my mind, at least. #AmWriting #FlinchBooks

Hello, new followers! I'm Jim, a widower who loves comics, books, toys, music, and consider myself a student of pop culture. I'm also a pro writer, editor, and self-publisher with two companies, #FlinchBooks and #BeckyBooks. I also work in a famous restaurant's gift shop. Hit me with questions.

I've just learned of the passing of the legendary #WillMurray, pulp writer without peer. He was a friend to #FlinchBooks and #BeckyBooks, one that we will never, ever forget. My love and condolences to all his family and friends.
Rest in Peace, Will.

Four books self-published (three from #BeckyBooks, one from #FlinchBooks with @jcbruening.bsky.social) in 2025! That's huge for for me.
Is that it for the year? Well...maybe. Stay tuned. Something is in the works that could just be the oddest, most unusual thing I've ever published...maybe.

Just 723 words on the novel this morning, but they were good, I think. I'm moving into a new section of the narrative and an important one that will form a core for this second half of the book. #AmWriting #SgtJanus #FlinchBooks
