UNIXy Guy. He/him. Prone to shouting "PUPPY" in public. I frequently (almost every day, in fact) give away Kindle genre books using #KindleBookGiveaway hashtag, and wrote a feed named "Kindle Book Giveaway" -- but remember bsky has hashtags now!

For the past few years, I have been giving out ebooks for free. These are almost (but not always) US Kindle books; I sometimes to UK/IE Kindle books as well. I get asked about this a lot, so here are some notes:
• I will use the hashtag #KindleBookGiveaway
• These are legally purchased books

No, I mean, it only COVERS that amount. No more.

It says it's a special cut of some sort, and it's 3 hours long.

I'm assuming it is, in fact, fairly strongly edited.

Blood isn't vegan. It's probably beet juice.

Amazon Prime Video has Caligula as a "historical movie."

I have been disappointed with High Potential this season.

He's a fascist, clearly.
kithrup.bsky.social
Yes, that's the point. Fascists don't agree with it, mind you.

I think you've got that the other way around? Seems to think that people who are accused of not being citizens don't get due process?
kithrup.bsky.social
You wrote it and did your own promotion! Those are both hard!

Also: every single interaction I've had with you, going back *years*, has been a delight, so I like giving out your books!

The private health insurance plan we have will pay something like €150 per year.

Wow those went quickly! Yay! I hope that's at least 8 happier people!

Very well! Because the author promoted it (and @schyzm.bsky.social), here are 5 uncached US Kindle copies of @lindanagata.bsky.social's EDGES! Which I've given out before, and have, but, uh, that TBR...

Book promo post:
Right now, the ebook edition of EDGES (arguably my most popular novel) is on sale for the "why not take a chance" price of 99¢🎉🚀! EDGES is a far-future, space-faring, nanotech-drenched adventure. Links and info at my website: mythicisland.com/inverted_fro...

Their salads were also great.

I suspect we may have to go to Switzerland to get good fondue around here.

We used to get The Wild Thing with some substitutions. From the current menu, we'd probably ask for filet instead of alligator. Also, their turkey breast was *excellent*.

IS IT AXE COP?!?!?!?!?!?!??!

It's like €.01/kg here.

If you don't care what other people think about your style, and you don't punch down, you are cool.

Yay! Those are all claimed now, woohoo! Admittedly, it was only 4 copies, so that's not many. But still!
