Ok. I'm down. Please add me to this cool list and (2) I'll try to remember the triple emoji thing, buuuuutttt I'm just a humble #indieauthor trying to write more (and always better) books. To paraphrase Cookie Monster, "Me try." Have a great New Year.

Yes! I'm thinkin' of pulling some of my older #poetry books from Amz to put through Ingram so they can get wider distribution (and also let me update 'em accordingly). Let me know it goes! #indieauthor #onegrainofsand #virginiaauthor #vaauthor #bookshelf #booksky

Cool stuff & congrats to you. I thought about showing reviews online but didn't want to show names - but I catch your idea of only showing the quote & not the person name or site. Wonder if I should do that, too? Whatcha think?

Absolutely. "Social" media should be actually social. Dig your groovy profile icon layout, too, man. Happy New Year!

Honestly, that's really kind of interesting stuff to me. I'm reading LeGuin's "The Word for World for Forest" right now & grew up on Blake, Whitman, etc, later reading essayists like Thoreau & John Muir.

Congrats to you! Hope it takes off! I try to avoid KU but I hear it works well for many. Have a great, productive New Year!

Nothing refocuses like a 6 - 7 mile hike in a forest. Or swamp. You take what you can get. But yes, true. #writing #writingtips #booksky #indieauthor #virginiaauthor #vaauthor #marscon2026 #marsconva #happynewyear

We all need more of that these days.

Yes, I'd like to know the modern interpretation as well. Cool stuff. I always thought it meant being in touch (or trying to be) w/the spirit of Nature. How far off am I? #indieauthor #authors #booksky #vaauthor #virginiaauthor #writinglife

I'd probably register it with the Library of Congress if you're in the US and care about that sort of thing. I'd check & re-check formatting & so forth.... #writingcommunity #writerslife #writingtips #indieauthor #booksky #author #virginiaauthor #vaauthor
