I spent two decades writing The Edan Trilogy before publishing last year. Tomorrow, the special edition of The Way of Edan by @binding_broken will be on sale for subs, Sunday for all. Working with people who love beautiful books to realize my vision has been the greatest joy.

It's been 10 years since Christopher Nolan's masterpiece, Interstellar. 🌌 A thread 🧵 on its greatness and brilliance.

A Worldbuilding Masterclass w/ @JedHerne! We loved this episode and have been fans of Jed before we started making content. This was a special one — check out this video and Jed’s entire channel for some awesome advice for authors/inspiring authors! youtube.com/watch?v=Tc3MGy…

This is how I feel whenever I try to write a scene that feels 'above my level.' Maybe I've never written anything this complex before... Or maybe I've never tried to produce this specific emotion... Whatever it is, it always forces me to grow as a writer.

Enjoy the times when you’re being pushed to your limits. It's a mental powerlifting meet. You either lift the most emotional weight you ever have or get crushed, so you learn to be prepared next time (because it will happen again).

It's now been almost a year since I left my job to become a full-time author & YouTuber (and it remains the greatest decision of my life). Reading things like this ~12 months ago helped me make that jump. Thanks @ShaanVP for the great essay!

New ideas come DURING and AFTER creation, not before it. i.e. make stuff to find out what else to make

Spoke to Jed Herne about writing first chapters. It’s a technical deep dive…
