Lonesome Dove x Paksenarrion #SFFpit #ww A young gunslinger’s only chance to stop a 200-year-old wizard and his army of wolf monsters is taking the Paladin’s Oath, binding his soul to an unpredictable god, in exchange for powers he doesn’t understand.

The last movie I watched with #JavierBardem in it was No Country for Old Men. So my assumption his character has killed the downstairs neighbor in #LyleLyleCrocodile was entirely justified. #dadlife

@kapowfit They give me a stomach ache.

If #astrology is real then those plants have some massive balls bumming us out down here. Have they seen what we’re doing to Earth? Humans will straight up kill the planet that we’re living on. What the fuck does Mercury think we’ll do to it?

It’s #FatBearWeek! Which means it’s time to start shit-talking bears I don’t actually have any beef with. #walker2022 #151

@NewestOlympian needs a western states correspondent to help Mike pronounce words like “Nevada.”

I feel like someone dared #stephengrahamjones to try and make a one-on-one basketball game pants-shittingly terrifying and he took up the challenge with gusto. #theonlygoodindians #horror #spookymonth

@CeHarbour It’s a bold stance. It’s wrong, and possibly criminal. But bold. #orangefantagang

@defendsthepeeps I’m convinced the entire conference has a kickback system with a secret cabal of cardiologists.

I feel like all of David Shaw’s halftime speeches start with “I’m not mad, I’m just disappointed.” #GoDucks #collegegameday

@tolkienaboutpod The fact that horse girls are the true force for good in Middle Earth.

Numenorean knights riding with couched lances? Fuck yes. I’d watch a whole show just about this. #RingsofPower

Sometimes when I really like a character from a book that’s going nowhere on the #querying train, I steal them to use in another story. Will that complicate things if any of those books ever get picked up? Yes. Who’s problem is that? Future Curtis. #writersoftwitter #amwriting

Sometimes you get the urge to read a book about how war is probably an external force with no goal other than the destruction of its own endless supply of practitioners, and there’s only one place you can turn. #cormacmccarthy #bloodmeridian #bookworm

My #wip for #FinishUrBookFall is my untitled draft about Bayard, a middle-aged dragon rider whose first defeat leads him to question whether his order is all that stands between civilization and chaos, or if they’re actually the violent oppressors they claim to oppose.

Grocery store ordering apps are a double edged sword. On one hand I can plan my meals carefully and avoid impulse buying. On the other, I’m free from the judgement of the cashier and I CAN order a box of Milano cookies for every day like I really want to. #raleys #smiths

@tolkienaboutpod Your pro-spider agenda is finally coming to light.

[Curtis Moore @MandHwriters]

@AyaMaguire If dragons have air superiority and size on their side, I imagine an underground city like Coober Pedy with people-sized tunnels would be hard for them to deal with.

[Curtis Moore @MandHwriters]

I don’t know if it would solve every problem out there, but if someone made a shot for shot adaptation of #cormacmccarthy’s Border Trilogy I would sign up for whatever stupid streaming service it was on and never stop watching it. #BookTwitter #BookReview #bookworm

Sometimes I do things that aren’t writing or querying, and I always forget to post them here. #nevada #mustang #mulepacker #greatbasin
