Look, if you watched a presidential debate and walked away thinking Trump was a good choice: you're an idiot.

There's no polite way to excuse the fact you think a criminal liar who betrayed his country for wealth is someone worthy of your vote.

You're trash.

I write books. If you like books, maybe you'll like mine. Why not check them out?

Treasure Planet was such an underrated movie.

@redenigma *hugs and love*

Okay... I have an hour and I need to put up ads for books so you remember I exist while I'm traveling.

Please buy books. The money goes to my grocery shopping.

Writers, post something random from your backlist. Don’t think. Just do it.

THE DAY BEFORE: Clones, quantum mechanics, and corpses... what could possibly go wrong?

Okay... I need to pack, buy presents for family, and PUT A FINISHING PARAGRAPH ON THIS BOOK SO IT CAN GO TO MY EDITOR.

I just... >.<

The ending is off. I know it isn't perfect. The deadline is tomorrow night.

@AskTheDevil It has been an unpleasant season of life.

Well, I planned to go to sleep on time, but now I'm E28 of #TheDouble and I need to find a happy scene before I can sleep.

I also won't use "Do It For The Plot" because it's supposed to mean "Don't Worry About The Consequences" and that is terrible advice in writing and in life. You should do everything with the outcome in mind, even if the outcome is only "Let's have fun!"

I've been told "Do It For The Plot" is now a Gen Z slang phrase and I have never loved a generation more. Excellent work. Well done, Gen Z. I'm so proud of you.

@AskTheDevil As a random aside from the usual banter... it's been a really rough week. My grandma is in hospice care and my best friend was diagnosed with terminal cancer over the weekend.

I am currently torn between crying and erasing this universe from existence to make the pain stop. The balance of the two extremes leaves very unconcerned about what choices other people make.

I'm an ocean away and not in charge of you. Any choices you make are your own problem.

If you're the right color and have enough money, you can get away with it.

I've come to the conclusion that all the YA books where someone is sorted into a group or assigned a job by magical means are all wish-fulfillment for stressed parents with adult children who haven't decided what they want to do.

I want to say that, in my defense, I was left unattended. But I've been left unattended regularly since I was a small child and I've done okay so I'm not sure that excuse works any more.

The ending of my book is still WRONG.

But I can't fix it yet because I don't know how.

So I'm going to go run errands and pack.

@feloneouscat It always ends up being more complicated and my search history is definitely grounds for suspicion.
