"I want to keep boycotting Amazon, but I also want to support indie authors. How do I do that?" Many indie authors have their books on Barnes & Noble & Kobo! There are also places like Smashwords & Campfire that are almost all indie books! Itchio now has a THRIVING LGBTQ Indie Book Scene.

If people want to boycott Amazon, that's on them, but they should remember to then buy things elsewhere. Don't pirate an ebook. Check other retail sites first, or your library.

Y’all will say believe survivors and then refuse to believe survivors when they come forward about how your favorite lesbian SFF writer is a racist troll who dent them rape threats.

This gets said by various people fairly regularly, but in these times of people (understandably) shutting down various social media channels, once more: If you're an author/narrator please please PLEASE make yourself contactable somehow? Even if it's just a single webpage with a "contact" form.

I wonder if the changes for Meta/FB mean that more indie promo is moving away from FB groups? As someone not on FB, there's a lot of indie promo opportunities where 'join this FB group for info/details' is a requirement :/

I had no idea what I was doing as a #selfpub author on Twitter and I'm not sure how BlueSky works, but I'll figure out. Probably.
