Cover reveal for Oak: The Last Watch 🧙‍♂️

So happy to reveal this amazing artwork by @gorchart 😍, she really captured the essence of this poetry collection.

Oak: The Last Watch, is a Fantastry, weaving a narrative tapestry through fantastical poetry. These free verse and lyrical poems give a glimpse into the early days of this fantasy world.

Each poem reflects the inner thoughts of Oak. Listen as he reflects on the grief of loss and the joy of new life, reassurance of hope and bearing a burden on the brink of despair.

"Even in the darkest depths of night, there is always light.” ✨

Publishing November 3, 2026.

My Short Story is getting published!!! 🎉

"By Human Hands", a Cozy Science-Fantasy, is publishing in @chickenhousepress 's upcoming anthology: One of Us is a Robot.

This one makes me cry when I read it 😭 (cozy tears 😂)

When I heard about the anthology, I actually wrote this short story *for* the anthology when I heard about why they were making it. In the rise of generative AI, this felt like appropriate response to today's day and a celebration of human creativity. I'm so happy that it was accepted and soon will be able to hold the words in my 'hands.

Coming Oct 31st! Check my bio for 'published works' to learn more.

Reading a book, and THE song hits 😊✨️

Have you ever had this happen to you? I had it happen while reading @jmtesta 's book, and it reminded me how much I enjoy sound alongside the stores I read.

This is part of why I've started doing narration, as audiobooks are one of my favorite styles of reading. There's so much emotion that I get to experience as a listener, and so looking to share that joy with others. by @glenweatherhead

There are many paths that lead to "The End" of your book.

There is no 'right' way.

Only your way, and a finished book. ✨️

For all my fellow writers... 🫶 by @glenweatherhead

Your mind is full of wonderful ideas.

You set a plan to finish writing all your stories by a specific date. But as you progress towards your goal, life… happens.

And as you get closer to the date you had set, you wonder if you're going to finish all of your projects.

Will I ever publish my book?

From The Art of Letting Go on Creative Writing Wizard 🔗

If you've been pondering these questions, give it a read (or listen to my narration).

Most importantly,
keep writing and stay creative 🫶 by @glenweatherhead
