It's all about power. All of the political manoeuvring and madness - it's about taking power. But so is your creative journey. Every nudge you follow takes ownership of your personal power! It's more important than ever to fully step into your power, so write that book, do that thing!

Fellow authors, I love you, and I know it feels like we don’t have a choice, but B&N and Am*zon both scheduled sales this week to preempt Independent Bookstore Day, a hugely vital source of income for indie bookstores. Please don’t promote their sales; please promote your local indie this week.

This quote from Herodotus comes after Cyrus saves Croesus from the pyre after the conquest of Sardis. It's in the epilogue to the King of Lydia's story where Herodotus turns the ill-fated Croesus into a brief fountain of wisdom for Cyrus and then Cambyses.

Good luck to everyone doing #scotwriterpitch2025 tomorrow! Might be worth checking your chat settings, I think default for new messages is 'users I follow', change that to 'Everyone' so publishers/agents can get straight through to you.
