The events and scenarios described in Hibiscus Tea are fantasy fiction. But I tried to write the poems in a way that matched the styling of poetry about love and loss and rediscovering joy. Because that’s what it’s all about. It’s one of my favorite things I’ve ever written.

@SWAnimus01 Not to worry! Quite a few Far Side comics feature chickens

It comes as no surprise, but I’m suddenly realizing just how much Gary Larson has inspired my writing. Thin plot? Add a duck.

@jaredleys Time gaps are series comprised of trilogies/dulogies/etc with time gaps! I.e. the First Law world, or RotE!

Thanks everyone for doing this! I used this and the top 25 results from the r/fantasy "favorite books" poll to look and see if there are any trends for readers' favorite series by length. Not the cleanest data, but interesting results!

If you're limited to one, what's your favorite fantasy/sci-fi work of all time? Can be a single book, a trilogy, a series, etc etc, but you can only pick one

@jaredleys Yes, highly recommend! Would love to hear what you think of it. It’s a fairly quick read and it’s fun to dissect all the diagrams and interviews for clues

@CorrinaBada Quite alright, it’s a smart idea. I much prefer doing a lot of other things, but end up losing a lot of time to scrolling.

@jaredleys Maybe it’s time to time your scrolling time, then spend time replying to comments you receive or visa versa. Then do something off the phone for your peace. Writing is my peace time which always gets a piece written. But if you weren’t looking for friendly tips I’m sorry.

The thing I dislike most about social media is the way it makes me much less content with moment of quiet and solitude. Instead of peace, I often find myself considering what my next post will be.

Collecting book 2s like infinity stones. I’m going to attempt a run of these and harness the power of the sequel.

Do people fondly remember Lord of the Flies when forced to read it in school, or is it Gatsby level?

No man is an island,
Entire of itself.
Each is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main. …
Each man’s death diminishes me,
For I am involved in mankind.
Therefore, send not to know
For whom the duck quacks,
It quacks for thee.

Improve any story by the addition of ducks: 'It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife and a duck pond."

I only write for the money, hate, perks, and groupies. Perks matter more than money. I love living in paradise. In Cabo, I indulged in every exorbitant tourist activity and ate at lavish restaurants, all for free. I lived with ocean views, fish tacos, and earned 40¢ per word.

Hey, it's my birthday! Celebrate by checking out one of my books. THE BAD SIGN is about a mobster failson trying to make a name for himself. (Homages the everloving shit out of The Sopranos!) PYLITP is a neo-noir packed with desperate scumbags in the fast lane to nowheresville.
