Self-published #authors, I’m looking for tips on finding trustworthy beta readers.

I’ve read horror stories of authors getting their work pirated, so I’m trying to make sure I go about this the right way.

Any and all tips appreciated!

Please ask before sending a DM 🙏🏼

How are you coping today? Here’s my plan:

Existential dread hits? Pick up a book and get lost in it.

Fury starts to rage? Open the laptop and rage write.

Resist the doom scroll today, friends. Protect your peace.

Tomorrow we fight. Today, we just survive.

Today, honor a King, not a Felon. #mlkday2025

As an artist, I could never separate another artist from their art. Are you kidding? Art is a piece of the artist. They are inextricably linked. Please, never separate me from my art. If I ever somehow become a monster, forget my name and my creations. Let both die forever. We are one.

Started a short story last night that I’m thinking of releasing for free to help promo my book once it’s published and this MC just turned into a sad elder emo kid with neck tattoos and a lip ring who plays guitar and I think I’m falling in love with him…

One of my favorite things about editing an erotic scene is layering in the stuff happening below the surface. The first pass is always FIRE, HEAT, SPICE, TONGUES, BUTTS. Second pass is wants, fears, doubts, unknowns lurking at the edges.

Writing is so wild.

I don’t always love it but today I do 🖤

In a writing slump at 20k words for my WIP novel so today was an art day.

This is an amazing illustration of a deep truth...

The truest struggle I face: there are simply not enough synonyms for the throaty, rumbly sounds a big, sexy bear can make. Writing is hard 🤣

Too real lol

I've had raccoons on the mind for awhile!

Buying books
Convincing others to buy books
Talking about books
Thinking about books

I think there’s a misconception out there that good writing means phrasing things in a way nobody ever has or would—that if a sentence feels familiar in the mind it fails. The opposite is true. Good writing is phrasing things in a way everyone has always wanted to and recognizes in their hearts.

Upsettlingly, in order to finish writing my book, I have to actually write the rest of my book.
