May the 4th with you!

Here's a good opportunity for a writer such as myself. If you're a fan of #StarWars, my wonderful #WritingCommmunity, then I've got a little something for you. Enjoy!

⸻

Governor Tarkin has enough on his plate as it is. Times are rapidly changing, and the Empire is growing stronger as the days pass. A new Intelligence Officer is appointed to the governor's command, though, and one wonders how will the two get along. He has never made it a secret how he feels about Force-users, even if he hides behind pleasantries and the neutrality in his words. There's only one exception to the rule: Lord Vader, but could there ever be another in the future?

This is an art piece. Darth Vader is standing beside a sitting Wilhuff Tarkin. The latter is a gray suit, tall boots, and is sitting in a straight chair.

Also in English, as the book is also in English: if you write reviews and fantasy, time loops, tightly written action with morally grey, but well developed and fully rounded, characters sound like an interesting combination to you, grab an ARC of my book The Mountain Ride!

Ping me for a review copy!

If you're a fan of #StarWars, my dear #WritingCommmunity, then I've got a little something for you. It's called Forbidden Desires of the Dark Side. I started the story, and I've already posted the first chapter. For now, this WIP has a working title. It might very well change in the future.

This is a still photo from Star Wars: Rogue One with a CGI Peter Cushing as Grand Moff Tarkin and Ben Mendelsohn as Orson Krennic. You can only see their side profiles as they speak to one another and there's a planet in the background, just beyond the ship's windows.

One of my goals this year is to read more self published books, so respond here if you’ve got something I should read!

I’m not a high fantasy, sword and sorcery fan. Ditto for Dune style sci-fi. I am awed at the skill required to write it but don’t enjoy reading it right now.

I am currently enjoying magical realism, upbeat sci-fi, urban fantasy and HEA Romance. I do love horror, specifically paranormal horror.

Hurry hurry hurry
We don't have time to slow to down
to breathe
Hurry hurry hurry
No time for love
No time
Hurry hurry hurry
Break a leg
Get hurt
Hurry hurry hurry
So you can meet the needs quickly
and return to hurrying
Hurry hurry hurry
Miss the important moments
No time
Hurry hurry hurry
No time to live
No time
Hurry hurry hurry

Die

"It's not that we have a short time to live,
but that we waste a lot of it." -Seneca

•We waste a lot of time caring too much about what people think.
•We waste a lot of time being too rigid, and too hard on ourselves.
•We waste a lot of time being sheep.
•We waste a lot of time not thinking for ourselves.
•We waste a lot of time not developing our critical thinking.
•We waste a lot of time doing what we think is expected of us.
•We waste a lot of time doing things we don't actually want to do.
•We waste time not being who we want to be.
•We waste a lot of time not being true to ourselves.
•We waste a lot of time thinking we need to be productive 24/7.
•We waste a lot of time trying to prove ourselves to people who are just as imperfect as us.
•We waste a lot of time not living.
•We waste time judging each other.
•We waste time thinking of what could have been.
•We waste time when we don't live in the present moment.
•We waste time working jobs we don't love.
•We waste time choosing money over living.

Dear writer's of Mastodon,
I have a few questions to ask you in regards to writing that you can make a living off, while also battling depression and anxiety.

1. How do you manage to write while also struggling with your mental health?

2. How can you write and ask your editor and publisher for time to deal with your mental health? (I ask this because I want to be a published writer but the fear of having a deadline really makes it challenging for me to commit.)

3. Can you survive on writing if you require a lot of time off?

#WordWeavers 10.6 — Who is your weirdest character?

Junk is by far my weirdest character. From his radio show to the drugs and booze, the way he dresses and how he's always high on /something/, etc. He's a ball of anxiety, ridiculousness, hyperactivity, teasing, jokes, and fun. I absolutely adore him, though. How can you not? He's a bundle of relatable stuff (minus the drugs and alcohol, of course), and he loves his friends and family more than anything.
