A lot of new folks coming to the #fediverse, so here's a new #introduction.

I work as a #video guy. An aspiring novelist looking to connect more with the #writingcommunity. I am querying my debut novel to agents right now.

I'm a rare sports fan on #mastodon, cheering the #Packers, #DCU, #USMNT and #USWNT.

Other stuff you can expect: urbanism (#train and #bicycle in particular), #fitness (mostly weightlifting), #newmusic and #gaming (#tabletop and video).

I tend to follow back.

Heads up! While you can order DOOMFLOWER from anywhere, very few bookstores have it on physical shelves. One of them is Black Cat Fables in Monrovia, California, so if you're in SoCal, stop by this Saturday for Independent Bookstore Day! They only have THREE copies left! I'm popping by to sign them.
Whoa! DOOMFLOWER is at number 17 on Amazon UK Kindle for ALL Teen & Young Adult LGBTQ+ Literature (not even including new releases!)! Thank you, UK!

@WeirdWriter Authors: covers sell the first 3 seconds. Story sells the rest.
If your visual doesn’t slap, your story might never get seen.
(No pitch, just facts.)

Flat covers flop. But cinematic 3D motion covers? They stop thumbs cold.
Want yours to slap like a movie poster?
DM me or drop your title. I’ll show you what pro looks like.

If I was in charge of your book launch, this is exactly how I’d market it to blow up your sales.
Drop your genre and current strategy, I'll reply with a free game plan. #amwriting #authorlife #authorsoftwitter #bookreview #indieauthors #writerlife #WritingCommunity
Ever stare at your manuscript like it’s an unsolvable puzzle? It’s wild how one thing, pacing, dialogue, self-doubt, can bring everything to a halt. If you’ve hit a wall, what’s the ONE thing you wish would magically fix itself? #AmWriting #WritersBlock
Your book cover is your first impression, make it count. Drop your cover, and I’ll tell you if it’s helping or hurting your sales (honest but helpful feedback, always).
