Book 1 of Hybrid Protocol is DONE on my end! 🎉
Tutorial planet survived: System crash course, hybrid glitches, bioshell rampages, code hacks, timeline folds, swarm heals… and now the mysteries are pulling the team back to Pax space.
Final chapter hits Royal Road May 1st.

@authoractivator It's been a fun transition. Armor stays the same, just the materials change. As for spells and spaceships; I think Clarke nailed that one. "Magic's just science that we don't understand yet."

Friday family fuel! 🍔

Grill duty for six - different scale than most dinner prep.

From 5 AM writing to evening grill master, working author life covers all bases.

Weekend starts now! 🔥 #FridayNight #DadLife #WorkingAuthor

Wednesday wisdom: 6-hour ribs ⏰

Low, slow, patient work. Just like writing - time and attention for the people you're feeding.

Worth every minute! #WednesdayWisdom #WritingLife

Mysterious collaborator rewrote my chapter with 'jjjjkkkklllmmm' and creative symbols.

Back to actual words now! Bold editing choices though 😄

Sunday workspace update! 🐠

Wife's coworker's kid was studying marine biology, heard about my SCUBA diving, sent these office mascots.

Sometimes inspiration comes from unexpected places.

What's in your workspace? #SundayThoughts #WritingLife

Saturday writing session status: Occupied 📚

Headphones ✓ Tablet ✓ Stuffed cow supervisor ✓

Apparently nap time is optional and daddy's office is prime real estate.

The glamorous author life continues! 😄 #SaturdayWriting #DadLife #WorkingAutho
