Bad News: Two days down with the flu is messing with my writing groove. Good News: The kickstarter for The Fractured Table continues to hum along. kickstarter.com/projects/swo…

F you have a gear shifter in 🇺🇸 the trick is unnecessary. 😂

While Kickstarter progress has slowed, it's still moving, and I want to do something to thank the backers. So, I've upgraded all the hardcovers to color interiors. That means the chapter headings and dividers are in color now. :) Also, in response to feedback, you can now 'add-on' hardcovers to other pledges.

One of my dangerous realizations from Charlie Kirk's assassination is that assassinations work The left mocks the "great man" theory but it is basically true. If you kill a uniquely powerful or effective person, you can decapitate a movement Ken wants his opponents decapitated. He is eager for someone to "misunderstand" his words and take inspiration from his desires and shed blood. There isn't really a good solution to this outside of stripping him of his license to practice law for this encouragement of murder. But most of his colleagues agree with him because every institution is hopelessly corrupt.

This is spectacular!

You caught me.

Any authors with books on the site, if you have a video book trailer, I will be happy to share it on my YouTube channel and embed it in the book listing on the site. I’ve added instructions in the author guidelines page. It’s pretty easy. Let me know and I’ll email you so you can share the file (or email as an attachment, if it’s small enough). Music and images must be copyright clear and no bad language used. Nothing exclusive; I’m just trying to help boost awareness of your books any way I can.

If you're looking for a new fun read check out Sharon Rose's To Form A Passage. Not coincidentally, it's available in the ebook bundle as part of The Fractured Table kickstarter. x.com/ted_cox/status/2065430…

I mean... it's in the name.

The details of the initial attack are awful. Full stop. Rioting, burning down businesses and homes are also awful. Full stop. Pray for genuine justice.

Game Night!

Newman, Bogart & Stewart. Each brings a very different energy, and all three have reputations of being great to work with.

My wife caught me working on book promo stuff and sent me to play Crimson Desert. 😂

This is a great book that totally took my by surprise. I don't typically like horror, but Shawn manages to tell a story about family that evokes something real.

Dear @WhiteHouse, my name is Rodney Smith Jr., founder of Raising Men & Women Lawn Care Service in Huntsville, Alabama. Through our 50 Yard Challenge, over 6,000 kids across the country have signed up to mow free lawns for the elderly, disabled, veterans, active-duty military, first responders, and single parents. With America celebrating its 250th birthday this year and me also being born on July 4th, I wanted to humbly ask if a few kids from our program and myself could travel to Washington, D.C. to help mow the White House lawn for this historic celebration. More than anything, I want these kids to see how a simple act of service something as ordinary as mowing a lawn for someone in need can lead to extraordinary places. What better lesson in community service than showing them that helping others can take them all the way to our nation’s capital? I’d also love to bring my American flag-themed mower in hopes that the President might sign it, so I can later auction it off and donate 100% of the proceeds to a nonprofit supporting veterans. It would be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to highlight the importance of service, patriotism, and the impact young people can have when they choose to make a difference. 🇺🇸

Your periodic reminder, you can pick up all these great ebooks in my kickstarter right now. Read @MichaelFKane, @AetherCzar, @McphersonWrites, Sharon Rose and myself, all at a discounted price. kickstarter.com/projects/swo…

I don’t have much of a dog in this hunt. So far, I think Amazon pretty much ruins everything they touch. But… “It’s like an Ancient Greek play about hubris.” That’s a perfect description of how Amazon handles IP.
