Montague Rhodes James [1862-1936]

Another impressive writer I discover from H.P. 's recommendation in his book "Supernatural Horror In Literature".

Jame's ghosts stories are so fascinating to read. Love it

"The promises of the fediverse can “solve a pretty huge distribution problem,” Patel said. Instead of spending time building a presence on other platforms for their benefit, a publisher can do that on their own sites — while giving readers the ability to see those posts on other federated platforms." https://digiday.com/media/why-publishers-are-preparing-to-federate-their-sites/

📚 #Writers, #readers, #vocabulary nerds: opinions, please? Reading or using term "faux pas"--we all know basic definition: social blunder. But do you assume-and/or do you think others assume--the term implies that the blunder happened b/c someone knew better & "oops, forgot!" Or that the blunder happened b/c someone didn't know better in 1st place? No wrong answers here. I just have reasons for wondering how others view this. Any input appreciated! 😎

Clearly not #today's most critical post!

Both, I don't think it matters.

@jnye My interpretation is that they did not know better.

#FantasyIndies April 25. What is the most difficult thing your characters have gone through?

I genuinely can’t answer this without giving away too much. Haha! Previously, though, the toughest thing any of the characters had gone through was grief and the depression that comes with that. ~ Hayley-Jenifer, author of Kingdom of the Moon

Reader/writer question: In fiction what are some of your favorite worldbuilding details, the kind of thing you think is underused and underrated?

Pretend? really?
Reminds me of a book I've read about bookstores' fun moments, and one was about a customer who wanted to buy books just to put at his house and makes him looks so smart. LOL
But, I've read , Jackson, , and more !

@aldi80s You can actually buy books by the yard so you can fill your bookshelves. That's totally a thing.

April 24. Favourite Character in WIP.

I have to say that Scáth is my favourite child. He says things without thinking, he is always hungry, he doesn’t reeeeally like people, and he rarely finds himself interested in what’s going on around him unless it directly affects him. And yet, he’s got a soft spot for one character in particular. I wonder why… ~ Hayley-Jenifer, author of Kingdom of the Moon
