There’s nothing worse than a bad audiobook narrator for a book you were excited about. Sometimes I just can’t power through—I have to turn it off and buy the print copy. A bad narrator can ruin a great book.

It is difficult readjusting to work life after the holidays. Anyone else feel like their brain is made of mud today? Anyone? Bueller? Just me?

This is your regular reminder to back up your written work. It's easy to forget that you could be one computer glitch away from losing months of work. Don't regret it later, head it off at the pass and back it up ASAP!

Fight for freedom of speech. Fight for the First Amendment. Fight against government censorship & administration overreach. They came for our books, then the late night shows, next is the news. It won’t stop until we will have no words left & no voice to be heard. Speak up!

I stand with Jimmy Kimmel for the right to free speech, unopposed by force or political retaliation. Shame on ABC. They need to stand up against this kind of fascism & censorship. Thank you The Writers Guild for speaking up. @wgawest.bsky.social @jimmykimmellive.bsky.social @abcnetwork.bsky.social

More & more editors have been asking for horror manuscripts. I noticed last week that the horror section in my local Barnes & Noble has doubled in size! I’m here for it! I’m currently reading The Reformatory by @tananarivedue.bsky.social It’s so good! What other horror books should I read?

I find it interesting that in Taylor Swift’s engagement announcement she refered to herself as an English teacher and not a music teacher. That tells me that she considers herself a writer more than a singer. I love that!

Authors, what this so-called agent is doing is cruel. They are mocking & exploiting writers. No author should be afraid that an agent is going to steal or expose their ideas. l’m taking a stand. I will not consider representing anyone who follows this account @un-manuscripts.bsky.social

This person is a disgrace to all agents & the publishing industry. This is unethical & cruel. It goes against the AALA’s cannon of ethics. This “agent” needs to be terminated, fired & blacklisted. I won’t consider authors following this account @un-manuscripts.bsky.social @aalitagents.bsky.social
