you don't need 200K followers on an app with no algorithm.
Build your community organically by actually talking to people not through follow back nonsense. It's not 2010 and this kind of blatant engagement farming is gross.

This is so well researched. I've not read such a well researched BDSM themed book in eons. Whew.
The translator added footnotes explaining terms and equipment. I am so very impressed. 🥰

Ohh apparently they went really quickly!!!! I'm now getting personalised requests!!!! For my book!!!! It looks like the team did a great job talking it up for me. I'm so happy.
If you're going to YALC this weekend, be on the lookout for ARCs of THE REAPER at the Del Rey table - there'll be a few copies there and this is what they look like in the wild 👇🏾

A thread about feelings stuff around Our New Political Reality™.
First of all, as always:
eat
take your meds
hydrate
tell your people you love them
let them love you back
The first three make an ENORMOUS difference in our capacity to grapple w/ All The Things; the last two are kind of The Point.

I've been using Storygraph since 2020, and it's been amazing to be part of their journey. I suggest it to all of my reader friends.
I stopped using Goodreads links in the book group I admin 2 years ago, which has encouraged folks to change to Storygraph.

people who use goodreads: jeff bezos owns goodreads and if you want a better alternative there is a black woman owned company called storygraph that you can use to replace it. you can transfer all of your data from goodreads to storygraph and have your mind be free of trumpie jeff bezos! win win. 💙
