Hello #Booksky! My very first self-published novel, “Cracks: Book One in the Saga of the Spheres” is now available for purchase and through Kindle Unlimited!

Follow Travis Black, a human being from our world, and Marrow, a non-physical entity that binds themselves to him in order to save his (1/4)
I ended up splitting that last bit off into its own new chapter, and the 5000 I just got done today bring this draft up to 27. #booksky

I wanted to write today, but it feels like someone stuck a big cotton ball in my brain while I was sleeping, so this next chapter is just gonna have to wait #booksky

I absolutely hated when I had to “dress up” or wear something overly feminine growing up.

In 4th grade I actually got in trouble and my punishment was wearing a dress to school. 😭😳☠️

2200 more words today, probably around half of this next chapter, and work is underway on the marketing for book one for this Christmas season #booksky

2000 more words down, but it’s done, making chapter 25 the single longest chapter from either of these two books at a whopping 7.5k. Not sure how close it’ll stay to that number by the time I’m done editing, but regardless it’s a hefty one. #booksky

2600 more words today, with just a teensy bit more to do tomorrow before the chapter is done #booksky

I got 1900 words down today, so that’s a clean 3k with yesterday’s included, but there’s still a good bit left before this chapter is done. #booksky

1100 words today, not that much but my brain doesn’t really wanna do any more #booksky

Chapter 24 down. This country may be going to shit, but no matter what, I’ll still be writing #booksky

Chapter 23 down. Now I’m up to a little bit under 113,000 words, and I’m not even half way done #booksky

Got a little more than a thousand words down for the next chapter today, but I was only writing for a few hours so that pace isn’t terrible #booksky

I’m not going to lie, I just spent two hours trying to write the final sentence of this chapter, and I’m only stopping with what I have because I think spending any more time on it might actually drive me insane #booksky

3000 more words done today after a few break days, but I’ve still got a little more to go before this next chapter is done #booksky

Chapter 21 is down in one day, and I have officially passed 100,000 words on this first sequel draft #booksky

Yeah, I got chapter 20 done today, even though it was a little bit more difficult than the last few. It’s definetly the shortest one so far, so that was nice after the meatier ones before it. #booksky

Just got chapter 19 done for book 2, with a total of 4780 words (3356 in a bit over four hours today), and honestly, I think I might be able to get the next one done in one go tomorrow since it’s a good bit shorter than the last bunch #booksky

Just finished 3500 words in like five hours with only a Granny Smith apple as fuel. Chapter 18 is now finished, and my brain is tired #booksky

the truth is that this isn't a theocracy and jesus isn't my fucking king
Chip Roy: "The truth is the marxist, radicals, and Islamists the Democratic Party promoted this weekend, they cannot handle the truth. The truth is that there is a king and that king is Jesus. And the president has been willing to say it, & Charlie Kirk was willing to say it & he got killed for it."

I sold a story.

After (how old am I?) two plus decades of trying, I finally sold a short story.
