Grabow's Ramblings From 2023

Pacing Myself POSTED MAR 10, 2023
As eager as I am to finish writing and editing This Falling Eden , there's still a long way to go. I knew when I was getting into this how much of a time suck it would be (much more so than Caffeine had been), but after shoveling weekend after weekend into it on-and-off for years, I'm wearing myself out and need to pace myself better. The realization came to me after I tried to make a new publication deadline stick (the original one was 2015, LOL). I decided I could make 2025, as in all th...

In Loving Memory POSTED JUL 17, 2023
A picture I took of dad in 1997. I lost my dad yesterday. He was 64. I don't write much about family on this website. My grandpa, my dad's own dad, passed away a couple years ago without mention here. I have two more nieces now, since I posted about Sabrina and Damien .

He was a child of the 70s and I wa...

>>> See my December 2024 update Following Elon's rebranding of Twitter to... err... 'X', I've decided to change things up myself. Last week, I started a Mastodon account . Its link has replaced Twitter's on the navigation bar of egrabow.com. I started the Twitter account @RealRyanGrabow in 2017. My second novel, This Falling Eden, was a work in progress (and still is, ha ha) and I wanted to use the Twitter account to communicate with readers about its progress. In six years, u...

Caffeine Is Back On Sale POSTED NOV 1, 2023
I'm thrilled to announce that my first novel, Caffeine , is back on sale. The new "2180 Edition" includes some goodies like deleted text (because of course I kept those files around) and author commentary. Caffeine is available in paperback through Barnes & Noble's website, and the e-book is available through several bookstores. It's not on Amazon (yet?). I'm excited to have this novel back on sale as work continues on my new novel . The original Creative Commons e-book remains...
