Just finished binging on Season 1 of Shrinking, and was pleasantly surprised to see Harrison Ford in it, hadn't seen him in anything in very many years, and it made me wonder where all those big names of yesterday are now. Tom Hanks, Denzel, Bruce Willis, Julia Roberts.... I can't even name or […]

It's #SolarPunkSunday so a reminder that my new book is available for pre-order in all stores.
It's the story of an old woman struggling to fit in because her village has a very tight sense of community, yet she likes to be alone, so she takes on a leadership role so as not to appear […]

Strange. Every other Ugandan that I don't know in real life and I see on mastodon is only posting about gardens, farming, and such. And they all appear to be young people in their 20s....
"When Emily Cullen picked up her son after his English exam, she assumed the smile on his face meant things had gone well.
Instead, the Galway poet was about to discover that a poem she had written seven years earlier, and which was inspired by him, had appeared on the paper." […]
I hate writing synopses, especially for short stories, but these people want me to send them some. It's annoying. Very easy to write one for a novel since the story is longer and you can just describe the first part of it and get away with it, but the short story, that is more complicated. By […]
