Used to write a lot about #KoreanCinema at koreanfilm.org before the Oscar win.

Read a ton of non-fiction about various topics such as #Cinema, #DisabilityStudies, #ActiveTransport, #UrbanStudies, #Linguistics, #SportsStudies, and other random topics such as the history of the doughnut in Canada.

I teach Englishes. The plural is important. Descriptivism always over Prescriptivism.

Not a bot just a rather corpulent male approaching fifty years of age; a very very slow ignoramus who reads occasionally.

Toots are #humanities, #sciences, #nonfiction #books, #maps, #charts and #graphs related. Some toots containg #videos may also find their way into the timeline.

Toots or follows or boosts or mentions ≠ endorsements of any particular notion or notions.

Expect many typing errors and nonsensical commentary.

@OwenTyme@mastodon.social cover

I'm Owen Tyme and I'm a novelist.

I prefer to write action-filled science fantasy, though I sometimes write fantasy or science fiction, when the inspiration takes me there. I love grounding what I write in science, even when writing about dragons, witches and wizards.

Though I currently call Liberal, Kansas home, I was born in the California Bay Area. I've come to enjoy the mild climate of Kansas. I'm a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
