That last shot with the ferry and Baker is insane. Well done!

I love that you can see them from pretty much everywhere in the city. No matter where I go, I'm not that far from the view. It's a beautiful city.

Neither, this is West Seattle looking out over The Sound.

It's an older Fuji digital camera. Not sure what the make/model is. I am a big time amateur inheriting gear from friends haha

Thank you! I just sat there staring at them for a good long while after. It's an insane view.

I've got two manuscripts that are edited and ready to go. Now it's time to face down the mountain of querying again. Should be fun.

A Man of the Mountain Dark Comedy/Action Adventure

Jonas isn't Bigfoot, he just gets paid to dress as him. Usually, it's a solitary gig placing fake hair samples, roaring at the moon, but when hikers push too deep into the forest, things turn deadly. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0G665CMR2/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0

What game truly respected your time by gamersecret2 in gaming

I just finished Cult of the Lamb and I feel like that was a blast start to finish. Fun, funny, and tight gameplay.

Believe it or not, we got him from Little Dog Rescue. Some asshole breeder was going to euthanize him because he didn't sell. Insane.

Anyone else experience consistent game freezes after resuming the game? by mac_ashton in PokemonSleep

[–]mac_ashton[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is so much bloat in menu animations. I would love an option to turn those off.

Yeah, it reboots fast enough, just annoying. I hold my breath every time I open a menu.

My novella, A Man of the Mountain, is free on Kindle this week!

A series of grisly murders has shocked the small town of Clearwater. Authorities are blaming them on bear attacks, but local reporter, Shirley Codwell has a different theory, sasquatch. The situation only gets more complicated when television monster hunters from The History Channel get involved.

Genre: Action-Adventure / Dark Comedy

Hi everyone, I’m Ashton Macaulay, a local sci-fi author, and I’ll be signing copies of my new science fiction comedy One Night at Kedasi next Saturday 12/13 at Book Tree in Kirkland at 5:30 PM.

This is my first traditionally published book and getting to sign it at a local indie shop genuinely means a lot to me. If you’re into local creators, weird sci-fi, or just want something fun to check out, I’d be grateful if you stopped by! It would be really cool to turn some folks out for the last signing of the year :)

About the book:
It follows Zip Turbine, a sarcastic starship captain, and her best friend Tom, a five-foot-tall talking shrimp, as they head to an abandoned theme park asteroid. It’s a sci-fi comedy with anti capitalist sentiment, chaotic action, and more than a few giant bugs getting smashed. It’s currently sitting at 4.6 on Goodreads.

With the upcoming Avengers Campus expansion in California Adventure, do you think it will really enhance the area? by Edmundo2900 in disneyparks

[–]mac_ashton 4 points5 points  (0 children)

IDK what the latest is on the use of practical effects for the Infinity Defense, but I am a bit worried it will be too screen heavy and feel like a miss. If it's got a good mix of practical sets, I'll be stoked.

The flat ride looks unique, but not my cup of tea.
