Whenever I see writers arguing about, or fuck, even discussing world building, a part of me wants to be like 'hey, how's your prose, dawg?'

If someone told me that one of the best Neil Young songs would be from 2012 and titled "Ramada Inn" there'd be a part of me that believed you.

Because that's how he is.

But damn is it great.

Look.

Sometimes it takes a man's death for a real movie buff to finally get three popcorn classics on air.

That's how Mr. Amato would've wanted it.

Founders on LinkedIn still seem to be struggling with the difference between telling people about their humble beginnings and admitting to straight up committing fraud.

If you like an author's work, the best thing you can do is buy it. The second best thing you can do is ask your local library to buy it. Or, do both!
A reminder that the median book deal for a debut author in the UK is £7000, paid over 12-18 months. (from 2022 Society of Authors report). Some of your favourite writers are struggling. societyofauthors.org/2022/12/06/a....

Oh boy.

Draft2Digital finally forced me to merge my Smashwords account and now I gotta go in and 'merge' all my books.

What a delightful waste of my time.

Putting this together was heartening. I'd honestly forgotten that some of these were 2025.

In a tough year, I really needed to reflect on my #writing wins.

What's not pictured? All the other amazing stories I wrote! (Stay tuned for 2026+?)

If you want to nominate anything, I won't stop you. 😘🖤

You know, I read a lot of books this last year, and somehow, the Goodreads year end awards only include one book I read.

If you ever wondered why Phil Brooks idolized Bret so much it was because Bret was his role model in bitterness.
