I am begging journalists to stop using the phrase “false claims”. They are lies. Told by lying liars who lie

1. Don’t sell ARCs.

2. It says ‘not for resale’ right there on the book.

3. The prices are disgusting, the books aren’t yours to sell and you should be ashamed.

Guys, if we fix the American health care system then we won’t get shows like Breaking Bad anymore, and that was a REALLY good show

Even though I ended my NetGalley promotion months ago, every once in a while a new review rolls in and I love it #booksky

As part of a party my friend gifted signed copies of my books to the winner of a game and if that’s not true author support idk what is.

Please don't forget indie authors this holiday season. Many can't afford to sell their books through anything BUT Amazon. Check to see if an indie author is selling their books via independent stores, but you're not a bad person for supporting an indie through Amazon or Kindle Unlimited, thank you.
Books.

When buying books for gifts this holiday season, please don't buy from Amazon. Please shop at your local independent bookstore/bookseller. Ask for recommendations. If they don't have a particular book in stock, ask them to order it.

Support creatives, local businesses, and your community.

I'd like to boost some hidden gems, so if your books have less than 50 ratings on GR or the Zon, leave your cover and a link below and I'll boost it! (Actually post your cover, fam! A link on its own is not as pretty as a cover pic!)

Need a button that transports all my #author peeps on threads into my Bluesky friends.

Bluesky should really just change its name to tweeter and dominate the news cycle

This era of music streaming is great in terms of sheer access but I do miss downloading the mashups made by some guy in his basement that you downloaded from his sketchy website. Can’t find those on Spotify
