Support Local Artists, Small Businesses, Indie-Authors, and the Like

December 24, 2024

Last-minute gifts and the holiday season. It’s very easy to go and buy gift cards. I’ve done it many, many times. The problem with gift cards is that while they’re imminently practical they’re often impersonal. That’s not to say that they can’t be amazing. I always appreciate gift cards to places I frequently shop. However, when possible, despite this being the last minute, please support local artists, small businesses, indie-authors, and the like. Everyone deserves

They Don’t Have to Get It, Your Art, or You

December 17, 2024

You do what you do, create what you create, for you. I’ve spent most of my life misunderstood. One aspect of my life and lifestyle or another someone didn’t get. It might have been family, friends, coworkers, teachers, bosses, or all the above. Someone didn’t get it, didn’t get me, and I did my thing as I saw fit to do. I was unhappy every time I tried to be what and who others expected

Should I Make Art?

December 10, 2024

The answer is always yes. Without art, in its many forms, the world would be a cheerless, drab, unpleasant place. Art, I would argue, is what most sets human beings apart from the rest of the animal kingdom. Human beings have been creating art for over 45,000 years. Cave paintings are part of our collective history. What constitutes art has evolved over the years and is still evolving. Most people think of paintings, books, music,

How Do I Make My Books More Visible?

December 3, 2024

Specifically without spending a lot of money. Writing is the easy part. Sitting down to write is often a challenge, but the writing itself is easy to do once it gets going. Maybe traditionally published authors have it easier, but I doubt it. While they get some help with marketing and sales from their publisher, they still need to be available to do podcasts, interviews, blogs, and other elements of promoting themselves above and beyond

How Long Do You Go Until You Get an ROI?

November 26, 2024

Return on investment is important but not everything. Last week I published the final novel of my new Savagespace sci-fi trilogy. This series is set in a distant future where humans travel the stars faster than light alongside some familiar creatures we ascribe to fantasy. Despite the ability to travel across space faster than light, a means that’s faster still has long been sought after. When it’s finally realized, this accidentally opens the way to
