My favorite reads are character driven plots with elements of fantasy and mystery. I write the same.

Sometimes I think writing and publishing isn't worth it. I often think about quitting and that is on my mind today when I get an email like I just did.

Today seems like a good day to remind #booksky that Audible is owned by an oligarch. It’s a good day to cancel your membership. Get a library card and download the Libby app or Libro.fm which helps support a local bookstore of your choice. #boycott #readers

It only took four days but the DNS situation with my website is finally sorted out. To say this was a huge pain in the ass is not even beginning to describe it. digitalmarketinginstitute.com/blog/google-...

Just spotted a squirrel with a stumpy tail. I wonder if this is the scrawny one I've been seeing? I'll keep an eye out and see how it does. We have a LOT of walnut trees on this property and they've been gathering them hard this past month. But I know for a fact there isn't much inside those shells.

I spent 8 years on that bird platform trying to use FACTS to show where this world was headed. I'm a Cassandra. Doomed to have no one listen. If you don't see actions=consequences, can't help ya. So this gal is going to concentrate on her own joy. Good luck out there.

Wide for the Win on FB promotes AI workshops. "Hey authors! Let AI generate your next book slop so you can make a million-a-jillion dollars before someone in India, China, Russia, or Nigeria, steals your stolen work to make more stolen books! Join for seminar at 10."

You know trad publishing is dying when they don't have Juliet Marillier's new book (The Amber Owl) available in the US. She explains why on her Goodreads account -- All I can say is when stupid The One 16 year old Mary Sue books which reads like juvenilia is everywhere, & this isn't in the US? WTF.

I was reading a fiction book last night that helped me understand why trad publishing is 1.) not growing in readership & 2.) why I rarely buy books published in the last 10 years anymore unless its by a favorite writer. Trad pub is churning out crap & calling it gold.

My Chinese drama, Kill my Sins took a deep dark dive in episode 14. 😭 I knew it was coming. At this point this villain needs to die in a horrible horrible way to make up for this. This one has a lot of powerful women and deals with some dark topics. So good mydramalist.com/757781-kill-...

BTW the Amazon deadline is approaching on not being able to download your books so if you want to download here is a suggestion on how to do it. #booksky next.content.town/p/kindle-drm...

Highly recommend that you read this. Disengage from the news for your own mental health and start deciding what you want from your life despite what is happening. thedruidsgarden.com/2025/02/23/s...

Working on revisions and this villain is SO EVIL. I mean Rachel Rowan (A Spell of Rowans) level of evil. Not one redeeming characteristic, I'm afraid. No ambivalence. No morally gray. Just black-hearted as can be. byrdnash.com/viola-perigo...

Finally Kid2 has moved to the basement bedroom so we can claim our front room for our office. Looking at desks today so we can get a partner arrangement together for husband and I - EXCITED!

I've been wanting to leave Spotify for some time bc staying there supports hate. I tried some different apps but didn't like how they managed playlists. Kid2 told me about Tidal and I'm moving everything over there now. They also give better support to artists tidal.com
