For brevity reasons (and it’s not hyphenated) I don’t always use my dad’s surname - Campbell. I’ve heard but can’t confirm his that middle name Mackenzie also denoted a clan affiliation, but I don’t think that’s going to stop me from being a bit of a dork about this.
Well I’ve never seen Outlander so I guess I’m doing that now.

To be clear this is not the same as tone policing social workers and other civil service employees for seemliness.

This is exactly what should happen to cops. Except some jail time and being blacklisted from employment in any law enforcement or civil service sector, or private security.

You talking about my books, or the books of any author you love, goes exponentially further than that author talking about their own books, especially on social media where your posts can go viral

I mean. Remember Bigolas Dickolas?
FWIW: Mention books you like or you think others might like. You never know what'll happen:

I saw The Sad Bastard Cookbook here so I mentioned it on Masto (in a "in case you need this" sense). It kinda went viral (1K shares). It jumped to a high ranking on Amazon and then they got media attention.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

I think about the number of times capua has said nah fuck Rome actually.
i dont think about the roman empire hardly ever at all but i do often think of those funky dodecahedrons from the roman period of france and germany, with different sized holes in em, that they keep finding

Eggnog latte. Again standard disclaimer I didn’t buy myself a mug with my first initial on it. It just happens to be the best latte mug.

Listening to a new audiobook recording of the little drummer girl with Adjoa Andoh reading.

I’m still somewhat ambivalent about this book. It feels like JLC took a crack at a woman protagonist and kind of ended up with a plot musher. But I like Andoh and the book is also fun.

@mugsysrapsheet.bsky.social is just a bad person. He’s a troll. The attention he’s getting by abusing his audience with declarations vindicating sexual assault and genocide is the closest he can get to the non-consensual sex he clearly fantasizes about.

So time to lay the block down. Silence him.

This is one of those people who knows they’re immoral because they don’t go around saying things like this in real life. Fully aware it’s an unacceptable and hateful thing to say so they come here where they feel safe using assaultive language masquerading as “academic”

I had to take it out but one of my favourite character intros that I've written is: looks like he trains at the bolshoi when he's not doing knuckle pushups on concrete.

Want to supercharge this advice?

Use Find to catch all your placeholders. I use angle brackets (>) for all my placeholders, notes, errors, whatever.
