I don’t have my name on the spine of a book. I do have a spine in my body.
Here are my thoughts on imposter syndrome, writing bravely online, and choosing honest chaos over polished pretence.

#WritersCoffeeClub January 26th - Do you include things you personally find repellent in your work?
There really isn't anything that I wouldn't put in a book to serve the story though how vague or direct I am about the subject matter is a different matter. There are some subjects that I find fascinating in stories but absolutely disgust in real life. It's dependent on the story really. #writingcommunity #writerlife #indieauthor

This is me, 2026.
Short hair (some of it graying). About to finish the third class in my MFA program. Working on book number 2 in a year of standalones. I'll be 34 in April.
Thought I'd share this selfie as a sign of life!
Hope you all are well.
Fewer posts here because I'm nose down into some new material. Meanwhile, you can still pick up AcClaim wherever books are sold:
The duality of being a writer and an actor:
🖋️ Morning: Writing a character's deepest fears.
🎭 Afternoon: Trying to inhabit those fears in front of a camera.
It's a wild ride, but I wouldn't trade it for anything. Content creation is about more than just 'posts'; it's about capturing moments of truth. 🎬✨

Frak. Had a last-minute quorum hit for the #Starfinder1E game, so today’s session is canceled. 😕 It sucks… but silver lining: surprise writing time. I’ve got coffee in hand and about 400 words left on a historical bio for the Patreon, so this one will get finished. ☕✍️
