I occasionally see articles and toots about #authors being arseholes and generally behaving badly.
So, as an antidote to that, I'd like to tell you a story about @clacksee being an excellent human being.
A while ago, she sent a message to her mailing list offering a large discount off any of her books when bought direct. I decided to use it to buy a couple of her books to use as prizes at the tombola that #Mermaids will be running at our local #Pride in June.
It’s time for the June #WordWeavers questions!

#psa Okay, learned a lesson today. I either missed this or the setting changed in an update. Both #OneDrive and #Dropbox have a setting for keeping all the files in the cloud rather than on your Mac, downloading them as you need them. This means that if you need them and the service is responding poorly, or you have no connectivity, you can't get to your files. If you use #scrivener, for example, which syncs through dropbox, this can cause sync errors between devices!
Both services appear to set all files online only. Both services have a way to change this to ensure all files are downloaded for offline use.
#Writers, #authors, as well as #artists, I strongly suggest you keep your files on disk as well as in the cloud. Change these settings now!
I would love to get your thoughts and feedback on my #BookCover from my latest book, The Challenges of Being Me. Do you like it? Does it capture your attention? Without knowing anything about the book, what genre would you say this cover best fits? #writingcommunity#bookstodon#authors@bookstodon
I always read books right from a lil kid. My Momma read to me and I carried on. I thank my mom for that. I learnt so much from reading and now I got the ambition to write a book of my own.
Shit this bitch taken so long I ain't gonna lie. But I nearly finished the first chapter 🤞🏾 #TimeTravelAuthors#authors

Volume 3 is LIVE! Visions And Voice Of The Sea is a beautiful collection of beach and ocean artwork with poetry and haiku. Perfect gift idea! Or spoil yourself...You are worth it! 🙂
And now, I'm starting to recalculate the characters' age using my Excel tool just to make sure I did not miscalculate back then. I kept it all in my head at the time.
Woke up to this: Number 11! No specials or ads, no idea why, but yay.🎉
Book sales is one of the greatest mysteries of the universe. 😂
