- Reposted by Christopher Ruz, Aussie AuthorThe Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon. wapo.st/49Zqv1L
- Book sent to editors today. Now, to write the next book. Goddamn, I'm so sleepy.
- Modern solar tech is amazing because what do you mean I can wake up and turn on every aircon in the house at 7am on the hottest Melbourne day since 2020 and still generate enough extra juice to run a bonus house?

- Doing a final spellcheck on my current MS before submitting to my agent. "fukken" Ignore. "shitbox" Ignore. "fuckery" Ignore. "fuckwit" Ignore. I think this might be the most Aussie MS she's had to deal with.

- Hey, so, anyway, I think (if I lock myself in a room for the next 12 months) I might be able to get one (and only one) of my self-pub series finished just as my secret novel project hits shelves in late 2026. But I have to choose. It's either Century of Sand 3, or Rust 5. I can't do both. Help.
- THE END. 101,000 words on my (checks notes) 17th novel. It's rough as guts. Characters are inconsistent. Plot points vanish into the ether. The protag has five different competing motivations. It's a pile of mud. But it's good mud and I'm gonna shape it into something real pretty.

Reviews are free AND they are a gift to authors that can keep on giving (i.e., exposure, marketing, algo boosts, etc.) Please, give the gift of reviews to your authors this holiday season. It really can make a difference!

- Hey friends! Putting out one last call for anyone who'd like to join the 2025 Rando Literary Awards as a judge, and send an award to their fav author of 2025! All you need to do is 1. have read some good books this year and 2. spare around $70 USD for trophy manufacture & postage. Any takers?
