My vacation is over and I'm heading back in to work today. To recap: I only wore pants one day. I watched all 11 Star Wars movies and live-posted here while I did. I wrote a couple chapters in my work in progress. Listened to music. Read comics. Listened to my current audiobook. Ate too much. Spent time with family. Watched hockey.
It was a great vacation! #IanWatchesStarWars #cosobooks #cosowriters #WritingCommunity #cosopuck #Cosohockey
As for that novel-length SWEU fanfic? I eventually edited it and rewrote all the Star Wars references out of it and published it as a pretty dang good space opera, called Assassin. If you're curious, you can find it here. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00D9Y7CJQ It's not Star Wars, but I'm winking pretty broadly the entire time. They're NOT Jedi, they're Watchmen. *wink wink* (5/5) #IanWatchesStarWars #cosobooks #cosowriters #WritingCommunity
So here's a little fun looking into the Just Cause Universe crystal ball of future books. I'm currently #writing Posse with an estimated release at the end of the first quarter 2023. I'm plotting Extinction Event and hoping to hit a fourth quarter release. Last Days will be out in 2024. #cosowriters #cosobooks #WritingCommunity

Good morning, #cosonauts. Today's AVI is from my book Cinco de Mayo, where the teens of the Neighborhood Watch get caught in escalating violence as people protest when police officers kill an unarmed black man in their hometown. #cosobooks
Good morning, #cosonauts! My AVI today is from my book The Path, about a superhero hacker who gets trapped in her own game. Think Tron but with a strong Hindu/sci-fi setting. #cosobooks
Hey #cosobooks lovers, this is just a quick reminder that authors like me depend on star ratings and reviews for our books to improve their position in search algorithms (not every site is as algorithm-free as #Coso). Please take a minute to at least rate (and review if you can) any books you read/listen to. Reviews can be as short as "I liked it. Five stars." I and other #cosowriters appreciate you for it!
Good morning, #cosonauts! Today's avatar is from my book Jackrabbit: Big in Japan. It has three talking apes in it, because four would have been ludicrous. #cosobooks
I don't always do my own cover art, but I've had this image in my mind for awhile now and am planning to make this book #27 in the series (I'm currently writing #25). #cosobooks #cosowriters #cosoart
Good morning, #cosonauts! Today's avatar is from my book The Neighborhood Watch, about a group of 7th grade superheroes and the first of the La Capitana books. #cosobooks
Good morning, #cosonauts. Today's avatar is from my book Tusks. Mustang Sally owes a favor to a supervillain and in this one he collects on it. #cosobooks
Good morning, #cosonauts! Today's avatar is from my book The Lion and the Five Deadly Serpents, a superhero homage to kung fu films of the 70s and 80s. #cosobooks
Good morning, #cosonauts! Today's avatar is from my book Castles, where Mustang Sally takes command of a new team while a conspiracy to destroy it rears its ugly head. #cosobooks
Good morning, #cosonauts! Today's avatar is from my book Champion, a suspenseful superhero murder mystery. #cosobooks
Good morning, #cosonauts! Today's avatar is from my book Jackrabbit, about a high schooler granted powers by a god and charged with saving the world. Yeah, it be like that some days. #cosobooks
Good morning, #cosonauts. Woke up with a headache but coffee is brewing so that's good. Today's avatar is from my book Deep Six, an action thriller about superpowered prisoners escaping incarceration. #cosobooks
