This is my best, worst idea of the day. 😁

Artists, authors, amateurs! I’m giving you a ‘mostly’ blank canvas. Give my mug a backdrop that fits your book or your fave book! Can be setting, cover, character art, fan art etc.

Best entries will go on the website with links back to you!

Mmmm, musings (no need to reply!).

In total, I earned (for this year) $900 in total, from Patreon. This is for ONE year, not per month.

Give or take, plus royalties from books and stuff - $1000 odd. In total. I am not counting per month.

This is not a way to earn a living.

This is our entire philosophy. Go buy some stickers! 😁
somebody bought some stickers the other day and that paid for ingredients for three dinners
your money is literally more valuable when you spend it at lil bitty businesses

I already had about 2 dozen ideas banked to apply to this effort. Yet tonight, and I’ll ink my own quill here, I had a real humdinger.

You’re gonna love what’s next. 😁

If you’re new here from my personal account (this bookperson ⬇️), hello!

I followed a LOT of Starter Packs from folks I trust in the community and who hold the Champion torch up for ALL the self published and indie authors. 🫂💚📚

Take a look around, we’re on Day 8 but already gave some Projects live!

The reviews are starting to roll in for Locks & Keys, A Fantasy Anthology by The Secret Scribes!

When your screenwriter British mate who’s also one of your D&D players catches on that the secret project you’re telling him about applies to him.

It’s now dawning on me that between the people I asked for help, those involved in the project, and those helping get the word out by reposting - we’re reaching somewhere north of 250k people on Day 1.

😮

We may not have mentioned that I’m ALSO a judge in the @spsfc.bsky.social again this year! I’m an experienced ARC reader and review writer so I’m used to communicating with self published authors especially!

I will do another post more about me, my background, why I’m doing this, etc later.. I’m exhausted! Creating a thing is hard! Authors are freakin superhero aliens powered by a foreign sun.. 😮‍💨😂📚

Happy Black Friday, y'all! #booksky

With the holidays in full-swing, the WWP Indie Book Club has decided to forgo the usual poll to determine our next read.

We will read the novella Coward by @ayrtonmsilva.bsky.social in December!

Our January 2026 read will be ShadowBane by Cal Logan!

THE WHISPER THAT REPLACED GOD PART II by @timwolffauthor.bsky.social did just about everything I wanted this sequel to do (review to come).

AN INKLING OF FLAME by @zbsteele.bsky.social a last-minute addition that had a lot of heart (review to come).

Nov. reading! 💙📚🪐

DIGITAL RAVENS by SK Putt was a fun cyberpunk novella with some cool action and hacking (reviewed on FanFiAddict).

A SWIFT AND SUDDEN EXIT by @nicovincenty.bsky.social was a great sapphic romance novel structured around some fun time travel shenanigans (reviewed on FanFiAddict).
