Also, a piece I wrote specifically as a piece for Thanksgiving is "A Chemawa Thanksgiving" which is featured in my collection Bury My Heart with a Keyboard. It's dark, but encapsulates the complex feelings I have around this holiday and its colonial myth trappings. It's on kindle unlimited for free

Woke up and shredded 2k words. Now baking up One Night Stand #8. Got 26k words. Gonna let it sit for a minute. One Night Stand in a Place with No Name is perfect Thanksgiving reading... just about the grossest feast I've ever seen/written.

After 8:30-8:30 conferences the last two days, I thought I was gonna hit the ground running with writing. But, I only managed 2k words on One Night Stand #8, and I find myself still tired. Now at 24k words. First revision of TRW 12 is now at 133/231 pages. Gonna chill and watch things.

Been cracking keys on One Night Stand 8... boy did that get weird fast. Added 2k words today, bringing it up to 19k words. Gonna revise This Rotten World 12 now. Been dragging on it because of my aversion to revising. Hoping that one day, books will just come out perfect after the first draft.

Took a minute to get my 2k words done, but I added 2k to One Night Stand Outside the Fortress of Good. Now at 9k words, which is like 20% of the way through a One Night Stand book. Off to revise. Now at 86/230 pages on This Rotten World 12.

From Milt Theo's review. "Wow, this was an incredible, one-sitting read for me! An extraordinary take on Native American horror, capped with a good dose of cosmic horror - simultaneously brimming with psychological insight and urban grit, all told with a strong sense of heart-piercing authenticity."

Finished all my grading yesterday, found myself doing some writing today. Now up to 7k words on One Night Stand 8. Check out parts 1-7 if you like bizarro post-apocalyptic horror. Just worked in another song parody and a flashback of the comedian. Gonna go revise This Rotten World 12 now.

Behold! Fruithulhu. One bite will threaten a person's sanity. It has mad flavor. Honestly, I don't know what this thing is. My wife told me, then I promptly forgot and started pretending I have a baby Old One on the counter.

Had today off. Enjoyed the feeling of doing something good with my writing. I read my original short story Ballroom Beef at Rose City Book Pub last night to help with a fundraiser for the Oregon Food Bank. Good times. It was a blast. Wish I could have stayed longer.

All good road trips need a playlist. Here are some songs to make your own One-Shot inspired playlist. Happy book birthday to my weirdo, Indigenous, road trip horror novel. Check it out, and if you can't, at least give me the old share! Thanks to everyone.

In addition to my novel One-Shot hitting the streets today, I've also got a short story coming out in this collection. It's a fun one, and I personally love the pure weird fun of my story "Would You Like to Join My Cult? Thanks to Riley Odell for putting this one together.

Here's a collection of my Indigenous-centric stories. If you like horror, and Indigenous protagonists, consider picking them up. Can't go wrong with any of these honestly.

You feeling Halloween yet? I am. Check out my new Halloween horror tome and say hello to the Hallow Queen when you meet her. Been busy doing behind the scenes work today... but I'm at 134/175 pages on my first revision of my anti-billionaire horror novel. Progress is happening.
