I am severely stuck at the "Falling in love" portion of my 2nd shifter romance novel, in a scene where they should be getting to know each other better at a wedding reception... extremely tempted to just let them bond over Dragon Age 2 or something way too specific, just to get them freaking -talking- despite character A's social anxiety (he took a xanax but that still doesn't mean he knows how to do small talk...)

I just got my first review on Amazon for my first solo fiction book!

"Surreal Sci-Fi For Serious Thinkers

This novel from Cliff Jones, Jr. is my kind of science fiction novel: It's unpredictable, profound, philosophical and filled with insightful social commentary and brilliant satire on ever page.

Honestly, there are enough great ideas in this book to fill 3 other sci-fi novels, but somehow Jones manages to cram one ingenious concept after the other into every single chapter.

Once I started, I couldn't stop thinking about it until I reached the ending.

Looking forward to more great writing from this author. He's definitely a talent to watch!"

Well, literary agents, most publishers, and most readers continue to ignore me. In response, I...just keep writing. What, did you think I was gonna quit putting my stuff into the world?

RUBICONS drops on August 1st. My whole backlist and a lot of my short-form works are available wherever fine books are sold. It's never too late to support your friends and

@ThatIanShane I can relate to this.
However the writers here on the fediverse are incredibly supportive, and interaction and engagement here is as good if not better...I hope that you build a great new following here, and maybe you can convince some of those writer friends on the birdsite that the community here is every bit as engaged. @writers

There's a bit of a dustup over on Twitter about best sellers on Amazon being artificially boosted by KU-reading bots. Is that really a thing? I know the categories are all messed up, but honestly hadn't thought about reading bots.
