Hi BookSky 💙📚👀
My first self-published novel, Lonely Nights on High Rooftops, is a cautionary tale of revenge set in an early cyberpunk future. Our MC has shunned tech, but gets pulled back into the life, where he'll have to face corporate - and his past.

As an author, I don't make a whole lot of money, but at the same time I need to read a lot of books to stay aware of trends and support my fellow authors. Obviously if I spend all my profits on other people's books, I'm not coming out ahead!

So: ways to read lots of indie books for cheap.

I saw someone comment "Privatize the profits, socialize the losses" and my word, what a fantastic title that would be for a @rageagainst.bsky.social song
A story in 3 acts:

Just the wrote the end to the "boss fight" chapter of this story/game I've been working, and damn.
I tend to put pieces of myself into what I write, but this was an abnormally emotional one for me. I hope I get to share it some day.

I haven't seen the movie, but I just finished reading #AmericanPsycho for the first time, and.... wtf is this book?
Extremely gruesome and graphic murder scenes, mixed with a constant drone of restaurant reservations, and random album reviews? Plot goes nowhere? I'm surprised by all this.

This game I've been working on is releasing TODAY! It's been very fun being a lot closer to the dev process than I am otherwise. Can't wait to see what players get up to!

There's a show on Flemish tv @vrtnws.be called "This is not a murder mystery", which is a murder mystery involving Dalì, Magritte, Man, Ernst and more, and it's SO good. Really appreciating the additional docu to the show as well

Does Spotify have settings, like Pinterest, where you can choose to opt out of AI music? I just got catfished hard, and I can't stand it.

Practically crushed my finger in the door today, so that's the current excuse why my writing is slow.

I'm writing a story that I'm turning into a video game, and it's been so fun to do. Seeing early concept arts come back that show you the vision of your words in someone else's mind, reading that the story has brought folks who'll be working on the game to tears... Let's hope we can make this real

Motherfuckers want to make our night sky a subscription service.
A US tech bro corp in the US has decided the night sky should go away. They've made that decision for everyone on Earth.

Naturally they've named the first searing orbital array (many times brighter than the moon) after Eärendil, the light bearer, from Tolkien's work

Company's plan to launch 4,000 space mirrors alarms scientists
Reflect Orbital says their light-on-demand idea has generated significant interest from commercial and government customers.

I only started Skate. today - and one of the most glaring things to me is how they've tried to make corporate and city council 'cool'? What's all that about? And the flippin' AI bug?
The skating itself feels good so far, but I'm thrown off by the corporatism. Skate used to rep the culture better

Not to be a cynic, but how long do you think it'll take before the cease-fire breaks because now Israel has nothing to lose?

Another great review for 'Reaching Out', this time by _robynreadsbooks!
I love it when people appreciate the atmosphere and "vibe" of my writing. Makes me feel tingly inside.

I'm also thrilled that readers enjoy my blend of sci-fi horror.

Sonder-44 is my new project. Here's a big thread of art & info.

Part scrapbook, part narrative, part worldbuilding, Sonder-44 follows The Photographer, a photojournalist participating in the D-Day landings, finds himself suddenly transported to an alternate 1944 where time and space has broken.

I'm going to be so for real; this novelette/game I'm writing the story for is the best thing I've ever written. Can't wait to get it into your hands - be it in a book or through a game!

Ireland just released a report showing the huge success of the unconditional basic income it provided to artists. Each $1 spent led to society gaining $1.39. Artists' earned incomes went up more than their side job incomes fell. And they were happier and used less welfare
