Someone read 13 pages of one of my books and @awscloud.bsky.social KU is considering paying me a nickel. That would be an improvement over the 1 penny they paid for over 1000 pages. Yep, authoring in Amazon is not for the faint of heart. 😂😂😂

Fiction is not for the “wishy-washy.” It confuses the reader. Write “some people like pumpkin spice and some do not.” Don’t write “pumpkin spice is not without controversy.” The author is the reader’s guide. Don’t let them down.

Amazing the resurgence of my Insurrection Series on Kindle Unlimited. Insurrection is the tale of how Americans rose against a fictional dictator, and the love story between two freedom fighters.

It’s not that Weims are a better breed. Everyone’s dog is superb. It’s just that once, long ago, a Weim taught me what love’s all about… typos on the photo and all.

It really does not help authors when politicians praise their apolitical work. Not only do they lose sales from the opposite side of the aisle, but it does permanent damage to literary reputations. #WritingCommunity #ReadingCommunity

Pleasantly surprised by the Night Manager. To me, LeCarre’s style was to put me to sleep while I read and startle me into consciousness with a random, unexpected word or sentence. If it weren’t for the actors’ basso profondo it would be perfect. #WritingCommunity #ReadingCommunity

I finally had to curtail @Grammarly interaction with my iPhone. It’s AI component defeated whatever efficiency it claimed to add. Developers have screwed the pooch this time. 😒

An otherwise great thriller author keeps using ‘damn’ as both verb and adjective (damn plane rather than damned plane).They blame it on the ‘internet generation.’ It makes me cringe but what can you do? #WritingCommunity #ReadingCommunity

Depending on the breed, sympathy limping is not uncommon. All my guys were exceptionally good at it, perfect examples of the German appellation “Gauner.” 🥴
