Apparently Twitter's AI knows who I am:

I'm happy to report my sci-fi novel is written! Unfortunately, now comes the boring part of reading and re-reading it until I turn it into something not terrible then go to publish it on Amazon.

Some one smarter than me could probably explain what it means that the infinite subspace beneath reality has transitioned over the last century from a library to an empty, decrepit, office

Every bookstore should have a cat.

Yes, I've read A Princess of Mars.

Earth, Mars and the moon in perspective!

Did you expect mars to be this small?

I picked up these fantasy magazines from a used book store and one of them had a tribute to Frank Frazetta. Looks like the August 2002 of Realms of Fantasy. Great stuff!

French armor, c. 1575

This is based on childhood memories of seeing the sunrise in the Atlantic. My father used to do baptisms in them for the church.

A work in progress. I always hate how black kind of turns green.

[Frank Ormond @frankormond]

I've been painting a lot, and suddenly got the idea to paint my own book covers. I've been working on sci-fi/fantasy art but I'm not there yet. It'll take time!

[Brain Leakage @BrainLeakage03]

One thing I love about BLACK COMPANY is the pacing. Cook wastes no time. More events happen in the first chapter than some fantasy authors cram into half a novel.

The entire first trilogy clocks in around 700 pages, roughly 100 pages less than the average WHEEL OF TIME book.

[Frank Ormond @frankormond]

I do often wonder about a definition of art that allows for people admiring the grotesque.

There's artistry in horror, for example.
