Personally, I think the idea that all women are measured by standards substantially higher than equivalent me is actually a sort of fact-based assessment.
Personally, I think the idea that all women should be measured by the failures of Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris is actually a sort of sexist doomerism.

Self-publishing is either masochism or the search for praise kink. On most days, I'm unclear as to which it is.

"Heart Mountain: The story of an American Concentration Camp" by Douglas Nelson (I just finished it) covered the little know history of a #JapaneseInternment camp and draft resistance during #WW2. Didn't know anything about that and was blown away.

Genuine question: how does an indie author get their book into a Barnes & Noble?

I want to popularize a new term:
TBW or To Be Written - an idea for a story an author has but can't commit to because they are busy on another manuscript.
Equivalent to the TBR for readers

People ask me why I post links to my site instead of Amazon when it comes to my book. It's because I would prefer people support indie bookstores. Indie bookstores support indie authors and a book bought from them keeps them in business. It doesn't make that big a difference to Amazon.

If you're out of money to buy books, go to the library.
There, you will find free books, and access to the internet, which you can use to find a higher paying job, which will give you more money to buy books.
