Really looking forward to getting involved in this 🤓 being forced to write something a bit different with prompts or a word count limit is such a great way to develop my writing skills! #writingcommunity

Since everybody is talking about those 4 "we'll diSrUpT publishing" douchebags, allow me to remind you that the publisher should pay the writer, not the other way round.

If you're paying to be (vanity) published, the publisher is not selling the book to the readers, they're selling the book to YOU.
