Smile 2 took the great concept and okay execution of the first and amplified the gore, creep, and psychosis by a thousand, and gave us a complex and interesting protagonist. I loved it so much.

Wow, unfollowing now. I was a big fan of his scientific research. No idea he was illegally exhuming bodies, breaking natural laws, wantonly creating life, and then abandoning his own creation to find its humanity in a world that abhors its very existence to avoid parenting responsibilities.

Editing my own work that I wrote with my own fingers and brain:

“Strabismus? What the heck is a strabismus? I’ve never heard that word in my whole life.”

Only 99 cents! Apartment 239 is a Halloween-set tale of terror about a guy trying to avoid dueling serial killers with help from his undead roommates. There's an audiobook too! Also, maybe a TV series?!

In writing this book, I wrote around the protagonist, but the second I started writing pov from his wife Elaine, I fell in love w/ her part of the story.

But I need to cut 1/4 of this book.

This is the hardest creative choice I’ve ever made.

Maybe I can beg her forgiveness by giving her a novella

Brain couldn’t think of the word simplified.

Instead it came up with: simple-lized.

Please send help.

This cover goes so fricking hard. Can’t wait to share my sadistic whispering story along with the rest of the awesome TOC!
Of Beasts & Bones COVER REVEAL!

I can't wait for this to be in readers' hands! I'll complete edits over the next 2 weeks, then it's time to format, get blurbs, & share author info. Every story I read again during edits gets me pumped for 2026!

Love creature horror? You're going to love this book.🖤

Came across 30 VC Andrew’s books in a single goodwill. AT LEAST.

I like to imagine someone died and a surviving relative or friend found the collection, started flipping through a couple pages going. “Oh. Oh no. Oh no!!!”

9 times out of 10, short books should be longer and long books should be shorter.

Exceptions still apply this rule to lesser degrees.

I need to listen to some music to relax.

Realizes I’m listening to metal and screaming music to relax.
Was just like maybe I'll listen to some music to calm down then realized I was listening to music to calm down already

Your body might be giving way. You may be more tired than you’ve ever been.

Even if you only get ten minutes a day or every other day to do what you love.

Do. It.

It adds to up. I promise.
