Very proud of myself for figuring out how to change each letter to a different color, so what you got, #Scriptsky? 🖍️

I want to do a real, proper Western. Western noir, maybe. But I've tried before and I feel like I only succeeded once: with the only novel my publisher has ever rejected. 😂 So one day. Maybe...

We haven't done a #FiveAfterFive for awhile, #Scriptsky, so why the heck not?

Do you have a genre you're always wanted to try? What is it, what's stopping you, what intrigues you about it?

Just reading and trying to get the neighborhood cats to join my cult. I'm very much a boring homebody. You don't write 60+ books going out every weekend. 😄 I AM starting to try getting into baseball. Seems my speed.

And thanks, as always, for playing.

Have lately been focusing on reclaiming my sanity and creative spirit. All this (waves hand) what have you IRL with our current political idiocy has been wearing me down and it royally pisses me off.

So I've been making efforts to rebuild and renew.

For Thanksgiving, TRAINS, PLANES AND AUTOMOBILES is a must!

And its not Christmas if I don't watch IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE.

A damaged, embittered war veteran and public pariah lured into a fresh mission she hopes will let her overcome her biggest mistake and change the course of history in the process.

Just to complete as many drafts as possible. We're 9 months into the year and I've finished 3...which is a lot for me...

I mean, other than surviving with your sanity, what are some of your writing goals for 2025?

Very early stages of a firefighter story, getting to know the characters as people I want to write about. No title, placeholder title is the Bruce Springsteen song that inspired it (actually two or three songs combined into one story). Hero is named Caroline Poe.

#FiveAfterFive #ScriptSky
I need some distracting, so who is up for some #FiveAfterFive (it is at least in my time zone 😉).

Tell us what you're working on! And, it doesn't have to be a writing project-- anything that's keeping you sane and creative these days 😁 1/5

My WIP has dual leads.

Tomas R. Cruz and Xahn are former lovers competing to command the first exploration starship. A human and an alien. One expressive, the other analytical but volatile. Both won't admit it, but they can't live without the other.

Paul Hancock is the head of an indie film studio called "Flickering Dreams Productions". He is extremely ambitious and wants to secure a major picture for his company. He is very charismatic and charming but can turn into a ruthless asshole at the drop of a hat.
Tell us about the main character in your WIP (Work In Progress)!

And remember, doesn't have to be a script-- could be a novel, short story, play, poem, etc.

Today, I told @hannibaltabu.bsky.social about the portable sensor-computer device in my sci-fi WIP, DISTANT WORLDS.

It's a nano-tech device in the eye of science officers, called an EYE-CORDER.

He cheered it and felt envious he didn't come up with it. #ScriptSky #FiveAfterFive
