Fun fact about me
As an #author, I dont read.
I've become #hypercritical despite being underqualified, and its turned my #TBR into a #DNF.
Should I become a #bookreviewer? Should I #betaread professionally?

Everyone shouting online about all the big problems, but ignored the thousands of beaten and molested children being sanitized, abuser protected, right in your own towns, probably within a few houses of your own.

Storytelling/writing, like music or math, is accessible to everyone. It doesnt take anyone/anything special.
Sadly, between AI and nanowrimo, too many people figured that out. The market is irreversibly cooked. Fewer and fewer people will ever make enough to live in this industry.

Time without purpose is a prison. I have glimpsed into the mind of eternity, perhaps the mind of #god, and found nothing but silence.

The missus and I pitched / bounced about 5 different book ideas in the car while her prison-bound ex spam-texted her unhinged nonsense. The book ideas were 🔥🔥🔥 and ofc unrelated to the nonsense.
There's a reason my first couple books sucked and the new ones don't and it's 110% her.

We voted in a festival. You'll partipate in it, or itll find you hiding.

Make a statement...tell the WORLD what you think of the books you read. Leaving a review for an indie author (like me) helps more than I can explain, and that's mostly because I haven't completely figured it out. What I do know is that reviews help get more eyes on my books and me, so...

I think I'm gonna take a break from book5 #7wondersofthegalaxy. Not that I can't write 60k more words.. just.. my heart's not in it and I don't wanna deliver something shitty.
It's a good book and it'll get finished.. Just not right now. All edit/query/publish will continue for the other 4 books
