Not exactly a flex, but I have written 1650 words today. Call it 2/3 of a chapter. Considering it's been weeks since I've written anything I'll take it as a win.

Right, but it could have just as easily been what you put in first. At that point it’s luck. For example, this is from yesterday…

Kelsie stared at me, disapprovingly, as I snorted the line of crushed up Adderall off my desk.
"What?" I said, more defensive than I meant to. "It's not like I bought it."
She wagged her tail, stood up and walked to the front of the office to sit in the sun.

A vigilante antihero.
A system of corruption.
One man trying to take down the system that held him captive.
No where to go.
No one to trust.
Malcolm Karma: Cold Turkey is a gritty, twisty, edge of your seat thriller that will keep you guessing. #booksky #kindleunlimited #thrillerbooks

I bought an ad on #BarginBooksy that runs today. It cost me $65, so I'll have to sell like 32 kindle copies to make it worth it. It's a little marketing experiment. I'll let you know how it goes.

I went down with the ship. Was literally hosting a live. Thank you to all the people that contributed to the booktok community. We watched it burn down around us as we were there.

ATTENTION #KINDLE #READERS

When seeing a book promotion post, how would you rather have the cover presented to you? Do you want it on a device like an iPad (since it's for a kindle book), or would you rather have the actual book cover (paperback or hardcover)?

OH FUCK NO!!!

It's not going to happen, but just the idea of it makes my stomach churn. Madness is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.
