This is the big one! Here is my new video update, with a twist, explaining my life and why it is getting more urgent as time goes on to fundraise the essential neurosurgery that I need in New York: https://t.co/Z5s9HFm7rM

Please consider sharing it with everyone that you know! x

Trapped on a cargo ship light years from home, on a journey to who knows where. A group of survivors struggling to keep alive. But there’s only one way to get what they need. They’re going to have to write a letter…

Piece by @JD_Harlock on the fall of cyberpunk in @newlinesmag. IMO this was inevitable purely because cyberpunk looks too much fun to be a convincing dystopia. The bleakest future is a boring future.

If writers spent as much time actually writing as they did "writing" their story in the shower, they would have already finished a trilogy.

Writers forget that the purpose of a first draft isn’t to write a perfect story. It’s just to write a story. Focus on getting your ideas on the page, and you can edit to perfection later.

[Jiksun Cheung @JiksunCheung]

Getting back into novel mode and I'm reminded how writing a first draft is like charging as hard as you can into wet concrete and trying to get as far into the story as possible before the world solidifies around you. #amwriting

Where’s the poetry workshop for poets who’ve forgotten how to poet and think they can never poet again, and also that maybe they could never poet in the first place? Where’s THAT workshop.
