In case anyone’s curious, that one 99c ebook you bought is 1/3 of a coffee for you and 100% a day made for an author. It truly does mean the world to us, no matter how small the sale. Just knowing our words are out there being read is an amazing feeling. Thank you, dear readers 🫶

After conquering Shakespeare’s plays, I took on his poetry—and, boy, was I in for a ride. Venus & Adonis turned up the heat (uncomfortably so) and Lucrece? A hard read. Was his poetry truly great, or was I just forcing it? Let’s talk #ShakespeareChallenge buff.ly/40dmYcw

A question for the #writingcommunity. How do you determine the price of your books? Mine are currently £1.99 ($2.99) and £2.99 ($3.99), but I'm seeing some for sale at £4.99 ($5.99). Have I priced mine too low?

Self-esteem is not something you must strive for: it is something you're born with but have gradually masked. Learning how the mind works can help with that unmasking process, so you can begin to unlock your true sense of self-worth. litopia.com/vagabond-hea...

When you think of art and music in all its blueness, do you think of Joni Mitchell? Consider not her 1971 classic album, but 1994's Turbulent Indigo... litopia.com/rachel-mccar...

We humans are almost blind when it comes to the spectrum of light. There is a very narrow band that our eyes can register so when a newborn's eyes follow something unseen and the cat hisses and spits at an invisible enemy-what is it they see? litopia.com/pamela-jo/wh...

I have come to the conclusion that I cannot compete with AI. It takes me a whole year to write what an AI can do in five minutes.

My toxic trait is, whenever I see someone saying something negative about a book they're reading, I think they're talking about my book when I know, in my heart of hearts, no one is reading my book. #writingcommunity

Another reason so many authors on your feed are furious about that A.I. generated summer reading article, is that in a media landscape where coverage for books is shrinking absolutely everywhere… this is what we get.

Feed an author, leave a review! Please, I implore you, dear readers, leave reviews for the books you've read, esp. for those that don't already have 1k+ reviews on Amazon. Most authors will be forever grateful if you do, even if it's a not so great one (just don't tag them in that case, be nice).
