I wish publishers would be more transparent about this. I now assume that every celebrity book has been written by someone else unless I'm told otherwise.

Readers already balk at book prices. They want books cheap (99p, anyone?😬)
The median income of a professional author income is £7,000 a year. societyofauthors.org/2022/12/06/a...
It’s *essential* the public understand the true value of writers and books. They aren’t cheap “merch”.

Fact 2: Editing must be halted immediately when the ‘I’m hungry’ death stare is implemented.

Sometimes I wonder what motivates non-coffee drinkers to get out of bed.
Probably some sort of pulley system.

Day 3 of being on bluesky. I’m not part of the exodus, just here to connect to the book community. Lovely seeing lots of posts about books, but sneaky accounts I have no interest in are still littering my feed. Lots of negativity too, but I realise that’s subjective. Jury is still out for me.
