If I had any video editing skills, Iā€™d do a video of the Dumpster administration set to ā€œBe Preparedā€ from the Lion King. Needless to say, JD would be the dumbest of the hyenas.

Congrats to $TSLA becoming a 900-billion USD company today. And rapidly falling. Down more than 6% today, and 33% year to date.

IRON SPIRIT IS NOW āœØFREEāœØ ON SMASHWORDS AS WELL. Pick it up on either retailer you prefer! www.smashwords.com/books/view/1...

Seeing Captain Bonespurs and Thielā€™s little blood slave bully Zelenskyy only hardens my opinion that Europe needs to rearm and stand on its own two feet militarily. Removing the US from NATO might also be on the cards. #SlavaUkraini

Finished Dragon Age: Inquisition run (I romanced Cullen) and now I can go back to writing books. Also - the Cullen/dog scene was awwww.

The UK AI and copyright consultation closes today. It is deliberately long and technical so many of us who will be impacted may feel it isn't for them. Respond anyway! Many groups have support materials to answer the questions you care about. Check them out>

$TSLA having a not-great day (down 7%). Itā€™s not a carmaker, itā€™s a cryptoā€currencyā€.

If like me you're struggling to fill this in, ALCS has guidance: www.alcs.co.uk/news/your-ri...

Wow, so Gelsenkirchen is one of the very few areas of former West-Germany that went to the AfD outright. (I lived there for 15 years, but Iā€™m not from there.) #GermanElection

Urgh so culture warrior Merz will be Germanyā€™s next Chancellor. The Nazis are in second place. This is pretty bad.

OpenAI isn't on the path to becoming a for profit company! They spent $9 billion to lose $5 billion last year! And if you think Sam Altman is some virtuous guy being pushed around by venture capitalists you are a god damn mark, holy shit

$TSLA down 16.5% year to date. More, please.

Itā€™s wild to me but thereā€™s a very real possibility that Trump is pushing central Europe into a land war with Russia, and Western Europe seems totally oblivious.

Meanwhile, lots of people: ā€œBut donā€™t tell people to boycott Kindle Unlimitedā€.

Actually enjoyed The Fall Guy. :)

Another NU alternative.

Looking at Papyrus 14 - at a price point of $350, what do they offers that all the other writing softwares donā€™t?

Yes, boycott KU - Bezos is making more money from KU subscriptions than authors, and the payout gets smaller and smaller because of AI drek swamping the platform, and there are libraries and Kobo Plus if you do rely on KU to finance your reading habit. Iā€™m leaving KU and Iā€™m not coming back.

Publisher storm warnings (a thread) šŸ§µ For possible Writer Beware blog posts, I'm gathering info on several publishers following complaints shared with me, news coverage, and online reports. If you have experience w/ any of these, pls contact me (in confidence) [email protected] Okay, here goes...1/5

Joined an in-person writing group in London. Itā€™s been enlightening to see how little baby authors know about what happens after a rough draft is completed. I probably appeared like the deranged uncle stumbling back into the house screaming about the horrors that away ā€œoutsideā€.

A propos of nothing - Iā€™ve finally gotten to the part of my TBR pile where the Ben Pastor WWII novels live and itā€™s so refreshing to see somebody getting things right about a culture thatā€™s not their own.

I kind of enjoy Melon Huskā€™s fortune go up in flames. $TSLA

Now at more than 4,200 - Return on Investment rocketing up the charts, same with Witches of London. Thank you so much!

More than 2,000 copies of my free and super-cheap novels downloaded! Thank you so much - keep it going! :)

My big sale is now live - lots of free novels and everything else for Ā£0.99/$0.99: aleksandrvoinov.substack.com/p/my-big-sal...

When you and your significant other - of all the morass out on the internet today - send each other the exact same joke about ChatGPT loosing its job to AI.

Just deleted two replies - this isnā€™t Twitter and I donā€™t want to contribute it to turning into Twitter.
