Arrival and opening of a shipping box containing copies of the first printing of a new book, The Candle Across the Bridge.
Today the first copies arrived.
Holding the finished book in my hands for the first time is an incredible feeling. Not a proof. The real thing. My first book.
I’m beyond grateful to everyone who helped me get here and supported the book so far.

A question to my fellow writers — What POV do you prefer writing in? I’m writing in Third Person because it’s providing a space between me and the material.

Hi, guys. I wanna say something:
“The Darkchild”, my first book, has been available on Amazon for a while now.
I put it through many edits and fixes…
For those who don’t like Amazon, global publishing will come soon and be available in other stores eventually.

I was ambushed by a final chapter on my walk today, and I’m not even halfway done. It's already my favorite scene, but I'm not touching it yet. Experience says another surprise is just around the corner. #WritingForTheWin :)

35 years of RPG dice-rolling, epic campaigns, and world-building led to my first book.
The Verdant Eye—a planetary adventure, sci-fi fantasy where a 1994 baseball star wakes on an alien world. #RPG #TTRPG #SwordAndPlanet #SciFiFantasy #FirstBook #SFF #WritingCommunity
I don't mean to sound melodramatic, but I think writing is literally saving my life. It's providing a daily structure, replacing unhealthy habits and it's providing a sense of who I truly am. The more I write, the more I'm loving me.

Someone asked me to describe my characters, and I panicked a little. I think it's because I’m still discovering them myself. Talking about them too soon feels like I’d be closing the door on something I don’t fully understand. Make sense?

Hey, internerds - I wrote a book, I think it's neat!
You should think about buying my book because it’s a cyberpunk story where the city's alive, the system's rigged & yet people try anyway. The apocalypse start's with bad decisions made for the right reasons.

Writing my first book and realizing how much of it is just showing up on days when the words feel clumsy. Still—I'm genuinely enjoying the process. Didn’t expect that part.

Something I didn’t expect while writing my first book: the characters keep teaching me things I wasn’t looking for.
#AmWriting #WritingCommunity #FirstBook #WritersOfBluesky #CreativeProcess
I’m learning that writing a book is less about inspiration and more about patience with your own messy thinking.
