3am, 03/03/2023 - on owning books, or not
Digression about reading, perceived intelligence, what it means to write, to be and artist, the power of words, why not mainstream voices matters, college, too much to make sense but somehow make sense, a word soup. Open at your own risks. https://tombelapluie.fr/03-03-2023-on-owning-books-or-not/
Hey #readers and #bookclub people, if you like #reading#shortstories and #fiction episodes, please consider trying out my series. The first couple of stories are free, and the rest of the stories cost less than a quarter each.
Each story is discrete and complete, so no fake cliffhanger to trick a reader into buying the next story.
If you were one of the #readers who downloaded one of my books during the free sale, please consider writing a review and rating the books you read. This helps to appease the algorithm gods who then make the series more visible, and also encourages people to buy the books and fill my tankard with ale.
The complete Nod/Wells Timelines speculative-fiction reading experience, available now in paperback, hardcover, or Kindle edition eBook! Read for free with Kindle Unlimited!
Dear #readers, if you like something a little #noire, and into bite-sized #stories, AND you also like a great deal, you can download "The Screw Turns" volume IV for #FREE until midday tomorrow
If you missed Ronald McGillvray's big birthday book giveaway this past weekend, you should still check out, buy, and read his stuff. Worth every penny, and every moment of your time. Give him a follow and get ready for his next release!
#America is struggling w/ several crises, most notably a #radical, #antidemocratic leader & movement controlling one of its major #political parties. America’s journalism industry is also in crisis: Its traditional funding sources are drying up, leading to mass #layoffs.
…The #journalism industry should reorganize itself to focus squarely on #America’s crises, both to help the country & give itself a clear #mission & purpose that could make it more financially viable in the long run. We need more #reporters reading #environmental impact studies & #school-improvement plans, w/ #salaries funded by #readers who are essentially giving a tithe to #democracy. And perhaps fewer #journalists in football stadiums.
We're less than a week away from the Kindle edition release of "The Spiral and The Threads" and there's never been a better time to explore The Nod/Wells Timelines!
Looking into the possibility of adding #translations to my #WordPress#website and wondering if anyone else is doing so. I think initially I'd be using one of the automatic translators, but would eventually go to manual so I can make sure the style fits my own. My website is about #woodworking but I welcome recommendations from anyone who is using a translation service for their website.
Also interested in how to test my site for #readers for the #blind.
