Hi! I'm K.S. And I do marketing and break it down on my ko-fi in easy to understand DIY style blogs. I'm working on more in-depth how-tos and I'd love your support.

Everything is currently free to read, but tips or monthly support is appreciated!

Crap. I've been waiting for this series to go on sale 😹😹😹 breaking my pre-Christmas book buying ban lol

I'd be impressed considering how much stuff is under there 😹😹

Well my first essay in this crappy English class just got sent back as "unacceptable" even though I followed all the instructions and didn't say that Hemingway sucks. 👿👿 I literally hate this. None of this has to do with marketing lol. Genuinely hate this university.

Imagine my disappointment when I discovered that you are, in fact, not sitting on my bed RN (because I'm in my room/office...)

K.S. Nightingale (Kai) @ksnightingale.bsky.social · 20h

It's so much easier to study for me on paper. I think it's habit from growing up pre-computers. It's the same reason why I prefer paper day timers than digital. Also fewer migraines when I study off a physical, paper sheet. 👿

I'm just not having a good time. These last few BS classes suck.

Hey could y'all help boost this and maybe go buy a copy please?

Happy Book Birthday to Raphael Ness and their debut horror novel LIMINAL!! You can get your own copy on itch, kobo, and B&N and we would LOVE to see your eBooks!! #booksky #bookrelease #bookbirthday #buymybook #horrorreads

A spooky, cobwebbed image of a wall with a light at the bottom. The cover for LIMINAL by Raphael Ness, which is a hand-painted hallway with a shadow person standing off-center, sits in a blue summoning circle with the words "AVAILABLE NOW" above and a link tree link at the bottom. A small traditional sheet like ghost image touches the side of the book, and it looks like it is happy.

I gotta read ALL the textbooks and take ALL the notes (yes by hand, it makes me remember things better) and read 3 whole novels but in close reading style which I don't like 😭😭😭

*whispers* it's hockey time and I can't explain how happy I am RN.

K.S. Nightingale (Kai) @ksnightingale.bsky.social · 1d

👉👈 thanks lol. It's not 100% - like I don't usually think I'm nosy? And I don't think I'm a mood maker unless that means like... cheering people up? Idk.

Big McLargeHuge is the only one I can currently remember but MST3K was not a pop culture touchstone in my circles ever so.... I guess it's curtains for me. 😭

THIS. I'm actually losing weight too - have always been plus size - so by the time it gets into full swing next year I'll hopefully be able to actually wear the clothes! 😹😹 although I do love my kinda cottagecore x academia look I have going on currently 😹😹

Weirdly kinda accurate? Like probably the closest one I've seen.

A bunch of stickers for a personality test.
Result: puppy like sticker.
Good listener, mood maker, sweet, love happy endings, hate to be excluded, can't be mean, witty, empathetic, want recognition, happy together, nosy, "how about you?"

Good match: romantic vibe sticker.
Bad match: blunt sticker

I want to cut my hair like that one bob cut Willow had in Buffy that one season but like ugh that's effort. 😹😹 (and I don't have a flat iron to keep it looking nice and it's not long enough to put back or in a ponytail...)

K.S. Nightingale (Kai) @ksnightingale.bsky.social · 2d

I love itttttt! I love that it's making a comeback too lol.

You're amazing and the work you do is so good and so needed and I wish there was a way to clone you or something so that it was easier for you. But just know that I see you, I love you, I appreciate all you do, even if you're having to slow down because of life stuff. 🫶🫶🫶🫂🫂🫂

This is one of my favourite cozy games that I haven't checked out since all the things got added!!! I gotta play it now!! (On the weekend...)

K.S. Nightingale (Kai) @ksnightingale.bsky.social · 2d

Also Lady of the Lake (book 7 of the Witcher series) is on sale for $2.99 on kobo right now. Pretty sure the entire series is $2.99 each. I just got them all last time they were on sale

K.S. Nightingale (Kai) @ksnightingale.bsky.social · 2d

Unfortunately I do love buying more books than I will ever have time to read. 🙈

K.S. Nightingale (Kai) @ksnightingale.bsky.social · 2d

Staring blankly at the computer and trying not to cry, here!
