    20th Mar 2026. Who is your ideal reader?

    I don't think I can improve upon the tagline I've used for years, which is that I write what I love for readers who love what I write.

  2. "...writing will not improve your quality of life, gain you respect, or earn you money--but it might just be how you survive. No machine can do that for you.”
    My latest blog post, TRYOUTS FOR THE HUMAN RACE: on Gen AI and silencing, is now up at:

  3. I'm seeking advice from #writers:

    Right now, I'm not getting what I want out of my creative writing. I still feel like I'm holding myself back, playing it safe, hiding behind words instead of using them to reach out to the reader.

    I think I need to break myself open, get a little crazy, shake it up a bit so I can bypass my thinking mind and write from the heart.

    Do you have any suggested exercises (or other advice) for this kind of thing?

  4. Goodnight Fedifriends.
    The view on #capecod near sunset on a day deemed “unhealthy” because of particulates from somewhere or another — #Quebec fires? Boston smog? — despite a strong wind out of the north all day. #apocalyptic #writingcommuity #photography

  5. I revisited my favourite coffee place in Budapest, yet I did not get to write in there today. I hope, I will have a poetry related post ready later!

    But first, look at Cafe Orient and their salted caramel latte with me!

  6. Sitting down with a coffee.
    Wearing a pretty dress.
    Writing down a thought that has been around in my head forever.
    Writing it for hours, in different shades and and forms, until it feels right.

    That's what I do at my favourite coffee place every Wednesday to write #Poetry.

    How about you?

  7. So from what I've heard, the #bluesky protocal is federated, but for corporations so they can continue to stalk you and make money, so they won't use ActivityPub?

    Most comments on twitter are very kind, people say it's what they want, while Mastodon comments say it is very horrible. Hmmm!

    Anyway #follow me so I can grow my enjoyment on here. I #followback mostly #artist #writers #filmmaker or the gatekeepers in those areas like #editor #curator #publisher etc #writingcommuity #sciencefiction

  8. As an #author with a #smallpress I’ve realized getting on a “Most anticipated” lists is unlikely. If you’d like to help get my sci-fi & fantasy fusing epic adventure with lost technologies in front of more eyes you could vote for Trials of the Innermost on these Goodreads lists. 🎮Started as a video game idea

  12. I’m pretty sure my fondness for 3rd person limited with multiple POVs shows the early influence of #ArthurRansome, who still strikes me as pretty darn good at it. Especially in his finest books, ‘Winter Holiday’ & ‘Pigeon Post’, which were also my masterclasses in handling a large cast (8 main characters, all given significant roles to play, esp. in PP).

  13. I'm stoked to have a story in the 25th anniversary edition of Antipodean SF! It's a short piece, titled 'Exit Interview, and it was inspired by a classic SF film... antisf.com/ #writing #writingcommuity #sciencefiction #sf

    the day i was wheeled out
    onto a bus
    there was snow falling about
    lots of fuss

    today i walk home
    on my feet
    there is snow where i roam
    on every street

    when they moved in
    40°
    complained of that heat
    the departure due to sin
    roughly zero degrees in
    the irony, bittersweet

  15. My news: finished chapter seven and pushed it to my darling, brilliant, patient, talented, insightful, sharp-eyed, creative critique partners.

    Do I appreciate my critique partners? Yes. Yes I do.

    Starting eight, the last chapter in the first act. On track to hit 80k total word count.

  16. I finally got to hold my book in my hands and the feeling was incredible but what felt even better was having my grandmother hold my book - so glad she’s here to witness this 🥰🥰
