Just a retired Air Force pilot rambling about writing, publishing, and the fine art of avoiding both. I write novels. I talk about the writer’s life (i.e., mine). Sometimes it’s insightful. Sometimes it’s just me yelling into the void with a keyboard. I try to be funny. No promises, but I do make the occasional joke on purpose.
If you're a writer, a reader, or just someone who finds comfort in watching someone else slowly spiral into creative burnout with style. Welcome!
“I have read a lot of Substack articles on how to grow subscribers on Substack but yours is different in that it is not about how to grow subscribers but how to be visible as a lonely invisible writer. Yours was the best until now, not one of the best.”
—Denik deBro, on How to Actually Market Your Indie Book⭐ “Best Substack on here for REAL!!! Sooooo much great writing advice from an amazing author!!!”
