I'm an author of Christian SFF, deep and a little dark. My first novel is named Caffeine, and I'm currently writing my second, This Falling Eden.
- The final book of the trilogy is donnnnnneeee!!!!! 🎉 Here's where the word counts stand. This Falling Eden (2nd draft): 91K words This Falling Sea (1st draft): 90K words This Falling Tower (1st draft): 94K words Each ~250 pages 275K words is a marathon. I'll go lie down now. 😵💫
- Final chapter is ready for the blue pencil. 🙌
- Hey, everyone! We’re Adobe and we’re here to connect creatives to createry so they can create and be flying about like petals on the wind in a magical creative land of creative creatingness! Reading this tweet costs you $578 and a convenience fee of $725 annually! Get fucked! Haha! Yours, Adobe

- Exactly. I dumped Photoshop 15 years ago and don't miss it.
- The project is almost done, and this is my last four day "writing weekend". I bought some art to celebrate using the Oviedo Mall as a frequent writing spot over the last 5 years. (Today was my last trip out there. I typically use Altamonte Mall, closer to home.)
- Part 8 of This Falling Eden (“May I Never Speak Again”) is complete, and the first two chapters of Part 9 (“And They Have One King”) cleared their checks today as well. Only 7 chapters of the trilogy’s 114 remain. 🙌
- Part Two of This Falling Tower, “May I Never Speak Again” is compete (except for a little finishing work I’ll do in two weeks). Only one part, with nine chapters, remains in the entire book trilogy. 😋

- I got it five years worse. 😫
- 5/3 😤 …where the Time of Forgetting began. And where it may begin again.
- 4/3 😫 …until the powers of writing and speech became the power to create and destroy, to dominate one another, and to fashion themselves into gods. Now, as Rai Ver While falls under siege, Sarsa and her allies execute a bold plan to travel across the conquered Earth, to the City of Falling Water…
- 3/3 The ability to write is the ability to control the ancestors' technology. This Falling Eden is a futuristic twist on the Tower of Babel story, set in an Edenic world where it's said Noah talked God out of flooding the Earth. The force of mankind's one language increased with each generation…
- 2/3 Two brothers, Nitcef and Venitcen, capture a writing pad from the enemy and flee with their village to Rai Ver While, a city under the protection of Zanine, their tribe’s only Sky Person. Only Sarsa, Zanine’s granddaughter, knows what the writing pad represents.
- Revised the first paragraph of my back cover text. I wanted to get rid of the dashes. Thoughts? 1/3 Hundreds of years after a global catastrophe known as “The Time of Forgetting” halted mankind's technological progress, a new army has risen to conquer the scattered peoples of the Earth.
- Hi, Bluesky. I originally went to Mastodon as my Twitter replacement, but I’m thinking about here instead. Certainly feels more like the old platform.
