I wrote Edit Like You Stole It. It's a book about editing, written by an idiot, for you.
Then, I also write fantasy and SF, ranging from flash to novel length. Most months I have a short story in @Ooorah 's Tevun-Krus. I am currently updating my novel, Song of a Poisoned Star.
Everything here is mature in that it features adult themes like tax forms, ennui, swearing, irony and some mild violence. In everything except for Poisoned Star there is no horror or extreme violence; that gets a little heated, so be aware. I don't ever write about, you know, certain parts of human anatomy.
Maketh Glad is featured on the SF ambassador's page; River Ghasts is featured on the fantasy ambassador's page. My Idiots Guide was featured on the Adult Fiction page which used to be an ambassador's page but isn't anymore.
I am old. I don't know who BTS are. I don't want to, either.
