Tired, trans autistic oddball writing SF/F stories about others like him. Loves animals. NO AI. The (2nd!) slowest cyclist in Minneapolis. 98k/100k on adult sci-fi dystopia, HUMAN-ISH. 70k/100k on adult solarpunk fantasy, THE KING IN THE MOUNTAIN.

They were made to be expendable. Obedient. To free the human worker forever.

They're not what they were made to be.

Adler, a human-dog hybrid, has lost all hope of escaping the retraining facility he calls home. Finn, a captured feral, may just change his mind.

Also gonna do the tiny idea I'll be Pounding Through (get it?) for writing month next month. Current working title is just "Healer Story"

"Pounding The Cute Burned Out Healer Before His Ex Does, Because His Ex Is Literal Death Incarnate & I'm Scared"

My favorite quote about writing.

New stories are like first dates, first discoveries, first expeditions, first moments of waking up.

And we get to experience them whenever we please, as often as we please. It’s a pretty good gig.

The worst part of the chronic pain cycle is definitely the part that comes immediately after that brief (but potent!) period where you're like "haha, what chronic pain? I'm doing amazing!! I can do anything!" 🫠 I know that feeling well.

Still so sorry to hear, friend. 🫂 I hope it passes soon!

Failure to return the shopping cart to one of the cart returns if you are able is a sign of someone who does not value the social contract.
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

"What do you want to achieve with your writing?"

What's that old tumblr post -- the point of art is not to be great but to make it apparent that there's something deeply wrong with you? Yeah. That. 😂
Phew... You know times are hard when you're kicking yourself for a $40 purchase you made last year. 🥴

Me, at me: No. Everett, no. I don't CARE how much you like that shiny new idea, you've got two active projects and one backburner project right now. You can't lose focus chasing after something new, listen to me--

We need to bring back the Horse Book genre, and also the accompanying section in the library with the little yellow horsey stickers
Tell me your most unhinged literary opinion, as a little treat
I absolutely refuse to feel bad for not finishing a book, even if I put it down early on. Life is too short for me to keep plowing through a forgettable story with characters I don't care about just on principle. Grab me in 1-2 chapters or I'm putting the book back on the shelf.

The greatest trick the coven in The King in the Mountain ever pulled was living rent-free in the protagonist's head from day 1.

Headed by former-king Nicholas, the coven is comprised of his former members of court and dearest friends. They're a tight-knit found family by the time Silas meets them.

If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.
I didn't even realize that I hit 70k words on The King in the Mountain yesterday! Wow!

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.
Quick snippet from The King in The Mountain today. I can't believe I'm nearly at 70k on the first draft. :')

Part of being a fiction author is experiencing life. Whether you do that vicariously by reading other books or watching TV, or if you go out and try new things on a regular basis, what you experience informs your writing.

Step away from the keyboard regularly and refuel.

What do you do when you meet a bunch of people living in the woods and you're SURE they're a vampire coven, but you can't prove it?

You make an excuse to come back later so you can interrogate them some more, of course! (Spoiler alert: it works.)

Strongman competitions hunted them to extinction.
I honestly can't remember the last time I saw an actual, literal phone book. Do they even still make them anymore?

I strongly suggest focusing on your neighborhood when it comes to political action/mutual aid because 1. Actual tangible change happens on the local level and 2. If you look at this from a national perspective, if you absorb every evil currently happening on a mass scale, you will fry your brain
I absolutely loved this. A fantastic read!
If you're tired and need a hug today, I'd like to offer this story of mine. It's about a haunted house so lonely that it promises it'll behave if anyone will just live in it.
