I see Jolly Time popcorn has entered the "Sitting on the couch, unbuttoning their pants and letting whatever happens happens" phase of popcorn production.

It's getting close to my birthday, so this year, like every year, I'm giving myself the gift of existential dread.

I'm declaring it WW1 Wednesday, where you get something related to the Great War. Since Pickelhaubes and mustard gas are in short supply, consider buying my book instead!

Hi, there should be a law that makes all AI stuff "Opt out" by default.

If you want to descend into Hell, that's your choice, but don't force me do it.

Please notify the appropriate folks so we can get this done. Thanks.

Yes, a kindle is convenient and portable, but owning and reading a physical book is an infinitely better experience overall. It's like the difference between a steak at a fancy steakhouse versus a steak at IHOP.

(p.s. Don't get steak at IHOP)

Let it never be said that authors don't make money. Why, I just made $1.20 and now I can afford to buy my family a Costco hot dog, provided we all share it.

What I like best about this time of year is that every day gets a nom de plume- "Black" Friday, "Cyber" Monday, etc.

The most unrealistic thing about Hallmark movies is that they don't portray everyone in the Small Town always hanging out at the Sonic or Waffle House because there's nowhere else to go.

One of the immutable natural laws of the universe is that there's a hard limit in the number of baths you can justify taking in a single day.

The worst curse in the English language translates roughly to, "May you have to go shopping on the Friday after Thanksgiving"

Want to avoid talking politics (and contemplating murder) with your family this Thanksgiving? You can find a quiet corner and enjoy my novel, instead.

In all seriousness, I am thankful for you wonderful people. Maybe you're just reading and see my stuff in passing, but if you see this, know that I see what you post and being exposed to your hearts and thoughts broadens and enriches my life.

This year, like all years, I'm grateful we live in a time where we eat the dinosaurs instead of the other way around.

Much of Millennials tech savvy was born from learning how to avoid computer viruses when we were using Limewire, Napster and no-cd cracks.

There are people who romanticize the days before assigned seats at the movies, but all I remember was having to show up to a new release 3 hours early or wind up sitting next to a four year old whose parent inexplicably brought them to an R-rated action movie.

Apparently Twitter turned on a feature where you can see where accounts are based, so you can now see just how many of those "Betsy MAGA USA" or whatever accounts are based in Russia

Have five minutes? Do you like stories? Do you like FREE stories?

Read my short story "The Icewolf" at my website, which follows a pack of wolves hunting their prey in the frozen wilderness.
