At this very moment, somebody, somewhere, is writing what will one day become somebody else’s favorite book, song, movie, game, comic…

Wouldn’t it be a shame if they gave up now?

My daughter is reading a junior novelization of Pride and Prejudice, and we got to talking about how all the fancy people have names for their estates (Pemberley, Longbourne), so we should name our house. Contenders are “Big Bob,” “Jonny,” and “Housey McHouseface.” #janeausten

The day this picture was taken, I sold 60 books. Imagine if I could do that every day!

That’s 60 steps forward in my author career - and 1 giant leap closer to my goal of selling enough books to support my family with my fiction.

“Whose slice of bologna is this, sitting on my hardcover copy of Star Wars: The Phantom Menace?”

An actual question I asked my kids this morning. You can’t make this stuff up.

Happy Father’s Day to all my fellow nerdy dads out there, saving the galaxy one youngling at a time.

Back in 2013, I started hearing the phrase “I read your book,” and the thrill has never worn off. Thank you to everyone who has given my fiction a try. This writer dude is grateful beyond measure. #writing

Copyediting for clients today ☕

A day may come when THIS is the side gig, and writing fiction is the main job... But it is not this day.

While going through my late grandfather's old things, we found this binder. It contained a novel I wrote in 2002, printed out on 111 sheets of printer paper and marked with small corrections and notes he left in pencil. Grandpa kept it all these years. #writing #AuthorsOfX

For those who do these things... I get it. But ease up a little, will ya? It's not a good look. #entrepreneur #authors

My day job is working as a ghostwriter and copy editor, but you'll never see me pitching my services to indie authors. Or trying to profit off of creators by jumping into their comments section to talk about my business. #indieauthor #selfpublishing

Was just informed by a follower that they found my book at Goodwill.

We made it, guys. I have arrived.

And for non-readers, I have good news: This story is coming soon… But its first incarnation won’t be as a book.

Stay tuned for more updates, mall-goers.

They say “write what you know.” This time, I really took the advice to heart. In my new novel, “Last Night at the Mall,” 4 middle-aged Millennial friends return to their western-Pennsylvania hometown to attend the funeral of the first of them to pass away #2000s #millennials

A novel about dumb teenagers, doing dumb stuff at the mall… “Write what you know,” they said.

My favorite part of fantasy world-building is developing cultural history. I majored in anthropology and worked as an archaeologist for a little while, so it's a fun detour when characters stumble upon ancient ruins for which I have an entire hidden canon #fantasy #author

@BWilsonAuthor My hope for you that I just envisioned: One day, while getting a fat check for being a featured guest at a comic con, these books start showing up for you to sign, and you get to cross out the previous owner’s name in the inscription, like the inked-over tattoo of an ex lover

GOOD MORNING to all the writers and artists out there who, through mythic alchemy, create something out of nothing every day.

They are spending BILLIONS to mimic a fraction of this power

The most recent first-world problem of the author community 😂 #writingcommunity #AuthorsOfTwitter

The real reason I don’t use generative AI:

I like to write. Duh.
