Just because you are trying to make money by implicitly lying, doesn’t mean I have to agree or support you. It’s not free, if I have to give you my email. #marketing #failure

If you need to be challenged to do your best, you’ve already failed. #life

Rich people don’t know what they are doing. Poor people assume what rich people are doing is correct, because they also want to be rich. Happiness isn’t about wealth or power. Just be happy. #life #failure #zen

Most people assume their parents were perfect, and everything they said/taugh you was worthy of your time. The fact is, your parents (even your mother) wasn’t perfect. What they taught you was to benefit you because it would benefit them. #life #failure

Once I finish transcribing “The Man With All the Cards”, I need to: – start another Drunken Warewolves story. — start editing my time-travel novel — start planning book 2 of “The Coins of Destiny” — think about what to do about my satiric (not satyric) novel. #writing

People like to consider themselves to be part of the “group”. Most times that group is about money, racism, hate, misogyny, and fear. At least you belong. It could be worse. You could be the only one. #life #failure

Please, if you order any of my books, leave a review somewhere. Whether good or bad, it helps spread the word. It doesn’t really help to make me more money. #writing #book

It’s time. Thank you everyone who follows and interacts with me on this thing we call the “interthing”. Most of all, thank you to my friends on here, even if you don’t know you are one. I know you have a choice of who to follow…

Running in circles is fine. Just make sure the circle grows larger every time. #life #success

Age is about experience. Intelligence is what you get out of experience. Wisdom is about what you get out of intelligence. #life

“Throw yourself into your work, they said. Do your best, they said. Why? Because everyone else does. Doing your best and working hard is no guarantee of success, much less happiness.” #writing

TV Host: “Please welcome back your dead, and now zombie, mother who will regale you with everything you’ve done wrong with your life.” #writing #throwawayline
