How about an #Introduction again, since I havenβt been very active here and Iβm thinking of being more active. And yes, itβs in part because of #Bluesky, the CEO, and their shit content moderation. Iβm not leaving there yet. I would like to try another instance, though it looks like that may be pointless if Jay can get mad at you and delete you from all instances.But I digressβ¦ an intro:Iβm an #author #writing a book series called Mercedes Masterson Detective Stories, but also other novels and short stories as well. I have the first three in the series out now. The first two are free currently from my newsletter site (in the library). The series is noir/thriller and with some horror sometimes and deals in themes such as corruption, friendship, and #LGBTQ issues (Mercedes is a closested #bisexual woman). Iβm also a trained method actor (the non-annoying kind) and recently starred in a short film that garnered 4 nominations including Best Film. I used to do a lot of indie filmmaking back in the early 2000s. I love movies and especially #horror. Iβm currently enrolled at SNHU and in my last year of school. Itβs looking like I may wrap up my bachelorβs degree in the spring of 2026. Iβm an English major and do enjoy #editing and am considering it as a career afterwards. Iβm rounding off my degree with courses on #journalism. I write and edit a #newsletter called Weaverβs Deep Thoughts which has βdeep thoughtsβ on a variety of topics as well as free #ShortStories and #poetry by a diverse group of writers. Itβs slowly growing and submissions are currently open. Iβm currently rolling out a serialized story called βThe Bride of Usherβ for #Halloween which is a sci-fi/horror blend of βFrankensteinβ and βThe Fall of the House of Usher.β New installments are dropping every Friday this month. The first is a available now.
