I know I probably shouldn’t overthink this, but it’s a little weird (in Diablo IV) that ghosts leave corpses.
Any moment now I could write words of such power & raw beauty that they take the world by storm and finally justify all the time I’ve spent on this “career”… any moment…

Me when Attack of the Clones came out: “ha! this movie is terrible — beautiful, but terrible!”
Me as the years pass: “okay, so, there’s actually a lot to like about SW2 in spite of the bad dialogue”
Me at the beach: “ugh, Anakin is right — sand really does get everywhere!”
Today was an exercise in extreme whiplash…
This morning, after a week of syringe-feeding and subcutaneous fluids to battle her failing kidneys, we had to put down our sweet, sharp, little mop dog Amy.
This afternoon, we met Hannah. Continue reading “From Amy to Hannah”
This fall, Deep Sky Anchor Press will release its second book — Hell Moon by Mary E. Lowd! You can pre-order it here.
This space opera horror novel is the first in a new trilogy from Lowd; the Xeno-Spectre trilogy features many of the same defining traits readers love about her other books — spaceships, animal-like aliens, rebellious AI, far future adventure, and queer found family.
The Xeno-Spectre trilogy is set in the same universe as Lowd’s Entangled Universe trilogy from Aethon Books. However, it has a darker edge that will appeal to fans of the Alien franchise, Ghostbusters, and Jurassic Park.

I would watch the new Barbie movie solely on the basis of the fact that someone involved decided to use the Beach Boys’ “Fun, Fun, Fun” in the trailer… but just looped it on her having fun, fun, fun rather than ever letting it reach daddy taking her T-Bird away.
That’s AMAZING. Continue reading “Fun, fun, fun… fun, fun, fun!”
The nine-year-old: “I want to fly a jet.”
A few moments later: “As long as none of the landing is for me to do. I want to fly around and spin.”
Eating fudge for breakfast after noon and working on a story about video game characters coming to life outside their game, all while a very nice cat sits on my lap. This is a more than okay way to spend time. Continue reading “Treats while Writing and Jets Flying”
