One for the boys.

Some of us are still writing stories that you'll enjoy.

[Mark Howard @HowardMarkLouis]

We must find a way or make one.

If you want a story with a traditional male protagonist, you're going to need to support the writers writing such stories instead of lamenting that the Big Five aren't pushing them anymore.

@J0hnADouglas Those who can't create resort to corrupting what already exists.

Indie fantasy has become ridiculously good.

What’s the best indie book you’ve read in the last 12 months?

Need some more for the TBR.

@WritingStickMan A rising tide raises all boats.
Always happy to hear about another indie creator putting in the work to spread the good indie word.

@M_Bohemond I did like the part when Paul chugged that blue worm jizz, tripped balls, and told a bunch of boomers that they were wrong and he was right.

@J0hnADouglas NOG!

Support indie authors that just want to entertain you with a fun story.

"Today, the Big Five publishers are staffed almost entirely by women. According to the most recent data, more than 70 percent of staffers are women. More than 70 percent of editors are women. Even 70 percent of all interns are women. At the executive level, more than 60 percent of leaders are women. In 2026, American publishing looks like lululemon."

@WritingStickMan But can you go wrong with John Carpenter? I even enjoy Ghosts of Mars.
