I recently re-edited the third book of my Mnevermind Trilogy for audio in anticipation of the audiobook production. I can't wait to hear Seth Clayton perform it. He totally killed it on books 1 and 2. Is this trilogy for you? The Mnevermind idea has its root in mnemonics, having to do with memories. In … Continue reading A Down-to-Earth Sci Fi

Font-a-licious
OMG OMG OMG So I was watching a course on what's new in Photoshop CC 2018 and I realized I was making the kinds of noises and doing the flails regular people do when they watch sports. Variable fonts. Holy shit. A game-changer for sure. (I'm excited...in case that wasn't obvious!)

What are the cool kids candying these days?
I saw a sale on candy today which made me realize, wow, I'm probably going to get trick or treaters this year! It's been a few years since I lived somewhere kids went door to door.
