A common question I get: Do you plan your writing… or just run with it? For me— Poetry = instinct, freewriting Fiction = some structure + controlled chaos Both work. Both fight me in different ways. #WritingCommunity #AmWriting

Unscripted? Yeah. Raw & honest has always been more my style. • My mental health is better. 🖤 • Starting June 1st, I’m trying a new social media approach. • I’ve started my next project: “The Werewolf of the Castle.” Definitely not your typical werewolf story. 🐺

As Sir David Attenborough (Happy Belated Birthday!): "Here, we see the wild indie author, having just emerged from its slumbering den. His features are unusual for this hour, as he starts his day." Have a good day!

(Has audio. Listen along!) -- "Pessimistic" (shorthanded) | © A.T. Pike | April 30, 2026 Life sucks and then you die. We just get better at hiding it. How has life changed for you in the past 5… 10… 20 years? Such a long stretch— and a blink at the same time. #AmWriting

Not a great day. 🙁 But I’m still here. That’s enough for now.

Someone tried to guilt-trip me into buying a marketing package—said my book wouldn’t sell without them. Every copy I’ve sold came from my own effort. Started from zero. Chose poetry anyway. No shortcuts. Just honest work. And when someone connects with your work? That makes it all worth it.

Warm coffee on a cool Sunday~. Happy Sunday, everyone. #Coffee #authorlife #happysunday

Ideas are easy. Structure is the work. ----- #IndieAuthor #AmWriting #WritingProcess

“How did your first book prepare you for your second?” Honestly? It didn’t. Life Through the Eyes of a Wolf was a collection. The Werewolf of the Castle is my first real dive into characters, dialogue, a full story. It’s new, challenging… and I love it. I’m writing this one for myself first.

📄 Writing Session Results 9 pages 3,263 words I damn near pulled an all-nighter for The Werewolf of the Castle. I'd be lying if I said I wasn’t having fun though. Once the ideas started flowing, I was on a roll. 🐺✍️

Saka and Rice talking about Arteta being creative. I can't wait for the reported Arsenal documentary to come out, but this is the thing— many find a lot of things Arteta does are weird, but they seem to click with players and help them, that that's what they meant for. 🔴⚪

🇺🇸 Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett's home was rushed to by police last night after gunshots were reported.

The only Republican senators willing to call Trump's $1.8 billion slush fund 'utterly stupid' and 'morally wrong' are the ones who are already retiring or lost their primaries. The cracks in the GOP are real, but they're only forming on the way out the door.

Trump claiming Israel wouldn’t exist without him is nonsense. He has done nothing Democrats haven't done—both parties let Israel commit genocide with total impunity. Israel’s existence was never in doubt; it is the lives of their innocent neighbors that are at risk. Stop funding their terror.🤦🏾‍♂️
