I hate social media, I wish I could just hand off the books and be done.
Lemme meet yall IRL and cons and bookstores. I'd love to have real condos with real people about them.
I have no tips. My books wont sell except by divine Providence.

I would say my #writingstrengths would be that I can write a lot, and fairly fast. Story can flow from my mind very rapidly, and there's been lots of improvement via keyboard in the last decade.
It doesn't take a lot to get 85k words put together.

book1 aka #SacrificeASpaceshipBook is terrible. I wrote this alone. Any change you see, any improvement rests squarely on others shoulder. @datchubbybtch.bsky.social
I releasing this free, once its cleaned up. Only because it contains little gems that come up in every book thereafter.

Got my hands on a near-expried lump of ham. Made pot roast, beans, potatoes, carrots from scratch.
Sure, I cut off the bad parts and boiled it extra, but the crockpot and pressure canner came thru.
Every time I dont eat something from a box, I hurt global capitalism and the petro-dollar.

Oh snap, let's pretend its still the 6th lol
I find tropes distasteful as a concept. I do a lot to play into them and subvert them.
So I guess #subvertingtropes is the trope id like to see more of lol 😆

Sleeping. Tore my thoracic lumbar fascia while asleep. Hurt like hell, barely remeber driving myself to the ER.
Herniated a disk scrubbing my shower.
What's the most ridiculous way you ever hurt yourself? I got out of the tub, skidded in water and tripped over the toilet. Ankle sprain.
😅

I write in bursts, I prefer writing 2-4k at once.
Going as high as 6k+ involves a bit kf burnout, but two 4k sessions a week is worth more than seven 1k's.
Lots of IRL distractions are around, but I'm hoping to get more into writing this year :)

Simons Folly, working on getting all my old works to publusj as well as writing book6 aka #4000yearsofsummer.
It's a #timetravel #romance #slowburn #scifi that I'm hoping to release chapter by chapter, free online, instead of as a paid novel.

Im looking forward to publishing. Whatever its the free stuff for book 1 and book6, or the novels (book 2,3,4).
Once I get something out, I'll probably start getting a lot out.

I missed a few days but I'll try it.
Hayley is trying to navigate a series of hostile worlds. I feel like her goal right now is to simply get away from her old life and find her place in this one.

Quick I-told-you-so political post.
If 100k ppl walked down to DC tomorrow and took action, not just waggle signs and whine, this would be over tomorrow.
Every day we dont do this, we consent to what is occurring. All of it.
So when another nation retaliates - zero innocent people will die.

If an author writes a chapter,
But nobody had it,
Dis he really accomplish anything?
* the answer, of course, is No. The question, rhetorical, to explain why ive written so little.

Thinking of doing a #giveaway, but it's just book6 #4000yearsofsummer ... I mean it'll be free to read online.
Will Hayley be married away to the butcher's son, or swept away by the strange man who carries coin from the future?
Who else might come through doorway, and do they mean harm?

Just writing, might be book6. It does have a title, #4000yearsofsummer , a #timetravel #romance with a dash of #alternatehistory and #steampunk thrown in.
I'm trying something new. I might release most/all of this without wasting time #pubishing
