WIP Excerpt: Captive of the Falconstar, Chapter 1

This book is a direct sequel to Queen of the Falconstar, which has been out for a few years now. I’m working on finishing the trilogy, trying out my new AI-assisted writing process to see how it does with a series that I’ve already started. So far, it’s going pretty well. This draft is pretty… Continue reading WIP Excerpt: Captive of the Falconstar, Chapter 1

Thoughts on the Israel-Iran War

I know that it’s been just a week since I said I would post less about politics and current events, but the events of the past week are so Earth-shattering that I really can’t hold back. First, yesterday’s 200+ missile strike on Israel by Iran. For me, the scariest footage I’ve seen so far was… Continue reading Thoughts on the Israel-Iran War

WIP Excerpt: The Road to New Jerusalem, Chapter 1

[Author’s Note: This is an AI-assisted rough draft, so it’s still got a lot of issues that are going to be worked out before the final draft. The genre is post-apocalyptic / end-times fiction, and I plan to publish this novel under my pen name J.M. Wight.] The late spring air was dry and pleasant,… Continue reading WIP Excerpt: The Road to New Jerusalem, Chapter 1

AI-Assisted Writing: Why Write a Novel with AI?

One of the things about AI-assisted writing that has really surprised me is how resistant other writers can be to the very idea of using AI in their creative writing process.

What About Ezra’s Eagle?

Several years ago, I wrote a blog post about the Ezra’s Eagle prophecy, which has somehow become the #2 search result for that term on Google. As a result, I’ve been getting hundreds of views on that blog post every week—and whenever Glenn Beck or some other conservative media commentator discusses the apocryphal prophecy, I… Continue reading What About Ezra’s Eagle?

Was Winston Churchill the true villain of WWII?

There’s this clip from Tucker Carlson that’s going around right-wing alternative media right now, from a guest who made the claim that Winston Churchill was the true villain of WWII. The best (ie least hysterical) analysis of this claim that I’ve heard is probably from Michael Knowles, which you can see here: I have to… Continue reading Was Winston Churchill the true villain of WWII?

Did I predict it?

On July 24th, 2024, eleven days after the (first) Trump assassination attempt, I posted the following prediction: 2. The FBI and DHS will continue to stonewall the investigation into the assassination attempt until something even more explosive dominates the news cycle. Remember how former President Trump was shot in the head at a rally in… Continue reading Did I predict it?
