December 1st, 2023 “Imagine that all of my books are ski hills,” I’ve said to hundreds of curious readers, intrigued by the silver & orange, candy cane cover of A Dream of Tin & Eternity. “This one is my double black diamond.” I wanted to write something to celebrate ten years of publishing; a storyContinue reading “SKP 2023: A Dream of Tin & Eternity”

Push: But you really need to listen to me, because I’m telling you the truth, I mean this, I’m okay! (Trust me.)
November 28th, 2023 “I am not fine. I don’t know how to tell people that, but I’m not. I also don’t see the benefit in being honest about it, because I don’t see a way that it will help me feel fine. If everyone knew how to feel that way, then we just would, wouldn’tContinue reading “Push: But you really need to listen to me, because I’m telling you the truth, I mean this, I’m okay! (Trust me.)”

Detach w/ Love
November 21st, 2023 It’s hard to keep loving someone who continually disappoints you and perpetually hurts you, no matter how deeply you love them. I wasn’t sure when to write this essay, but the holidays are here, and it’s that time of year so many of us are most disappointed and hurt. Early on inContinue reading “Detach w/ Love”
Push: The Book (and Boy) That Almost Wasn’t
November 17th, 2023 When my novella Flip came out, it got nice reviews and people generally liked it. So much so that, less than a year later, in 2014, I announced a sequel called Push. Wait, 2014? Didn’t Push come out in 2021? It sure did, people of the future. The idea I had thenContinue reading “Push: The Book (and Boy) That Almost Wasn’t”
Clean Energy
November 15th, 2023 As an expert in addiction (to be clear, what I mean by this is that I am good at having problems with my own addiction, not that I went to school for it, that shit’s expensive), it’s impossible for me to look at life without the option of using that lens. AndContinue reading “Clean Energy”
Novelty Treats
November 14th, 2023 “Are you bored?” a co-worker asked me the other day during a brief moment of inaction. “Oh, I’m never bored,” I said, as I often say. I explained that my head is always playing thoughts that excite me: developing stories and evolving characters and creating brand new worlds. But this is onlyContinue reading “Novelty Treats”
In Defense of Marvel
November 10th, 2023 I’m sure you’ve already heard, but Marvel is done, big time. There’s nothing left. It’s all too woke, the studio is broke, none of the stories make sense anymore and they’re just putting out, like, the worst garbage ever made of all time, like, for reals. Weirdly, though, I watched the seasonContinue reading “In Defense of Marvel”

I want to give a massive, heartfelt thank you to everyone to came out to the MCE show, the Theia book club, my writing class, and Twin Cities Con; you have been so supportive and have taught me so much this season. Conventions are a beautiful, brutalContinue reading “Fall Finale”
SKP 2023: Push
November 2nd, 2023 I have a few stories that took a long time to jump from idea to reality, but this book may have waited the longest. The demand for a sequel to Flip was immediate, and I went so far as to announce and name it back in 2014. I had a rad ideaContinue reading “SKP 2023: Push”
