Bodaciously True & Totally Awesome, the 9-book epic coming-of-age story about teens in the 1980s. It's about teens, but written *for* adults.😎

What I'm doing at 4 am now: revising pages in my epic novel, or working out at the gym. #novelist

You know you've won the negotiation at the used car dealer when the salesperson chases after you and blocks your way out of the parking lot, trying to get you to buy the car.

The inspiration for my new profile page tagline comes from the movie THE GOODS:

@kayVee_arts I like your work a lot. I'm still months away, but I'll contact you soon with details about what I'm looking for. Thanks contacting me!

This is what a 1,542,318-word, 14-volume epic printed on 6 reams of legal paper (SINGLE-SPACED) looks like. https://t.co/OKV0zpsqgj #writing #novelist #epic #magnumopus

My longest friend, @chrisorcutt, made lunch yesterday. Chris knows how to make a damn lunch.

@textfiles We won't talk about my Hermes 3000 typewriter signed by Jenna Jameson.

[Chris Orcutt @chrisorcutt]

The profoundly improved workstation with the remarkable #Keychron V1 keyboard. Once I passed the 1.5 million-word mark on my magnum opus, I needed the best keyboard I could get to make it to the finish line.

@iamnotastalker Sent you an email about this. Hoping you can help me, Lindsay. Looking for Carrie Fisher's address in 1986 through 1987. Research for a novel I'm currently working on. Thanks in advance for any assistance you can give me. Please excuse my ineptitude with Twitter.

Recently, my best friend, @textfiles, introduced me to AI art, and the results blew me away. https://t.co/tMx4fKy2EA

#Writing is #rewriting. Here's one page of one draft, or about 2 hours' work, from my 2000-page magnum opus in progress.

Hey, a quick shout out to my longest friend @chrisorcutt who finished the first draft of his largest and most personal book, his magnum opus, last year, and after a self imposed cooling off period (so the work can be seen objectively) has begun crafting and revising. Bravo

[Chris Orcutt @chrisorcutt]

Dear Steve Jobs: I'm saddened to report that @Apple has become the very corporate behemoth that you railed against in your 1984 commercial. After over 30 years as an #Apple #Macintosh user, this #writer and #author is leaving the cult of Apple. https://t.co/1632TMgpUL
