Is it a matter of the evil eye, or of evil in general?

The more I live, the more I realize how true the main idea of my book is.

Would we ever have to make our books famous if there weren’t a significant need for it?

Not always is the most convenient path the right one.

In the middle of nowhere, I built crystal palaces.

Thanks to my amazing dark and/or adventurous philosophers, I don’t have to depend on those specific paid girlies posing in front of fancy bookshelves to pick The Hidden Face among their reads, IF they ever read any of their "reads."

I guess a flat version of the earth is more possible.

"Don't post other books under mine. I need no marketing services. Don't post other books under mine. I need no marketing services. Don't post other books under mine. I need no marketing services."

Maybe I need an automatic messenger. I'm literally tired of blocking, deleting, blocking, deleting.

Author M. I. Verras (She/Her) @miverraswriter.bsky.social · 1d

Exactly. Save your efforts from scammers who haven't realized that authors are smarter than that.

Author M. I. Verras (She/Her) @miverraswriter.bsky.social · 1d

Another annoying publishing-marketing scam blocked. It claimed it is a publishing house. Yeah, sure...

I definitely prefer comments like "I bought your book." instead.

Author M. I. Verras (She/Her) @miverraswriter.bsky.social · 1d

I'm tired of reading comments like, "What inspired you to come up with this story?"

Some users are trying to avoid the core point. BUYING the book. Some want free inspiration for their stories.

No. Buy it to find out. I'm not giving any info for free. My tremendous effort needs to be paid back.

Buy it to find out if you want.

That's writing, editing, publishing, AND promotion. I mean it, promotion....

"Verras, why did you make your book so famous?"

"Because in this world, there's one thing I hate the most. UNFAIRNESS. INEQUALITY."

You can buy it and find out if you want to.

Author M. I. Verras (She/Her) @miverraswriter.bsky.social · 3d

Our book posts are to encourage readers to purchase the book. Discussions under our book posts shouldn't include other promotional or political content. That will be deleted.

If someone wants to promote their own content, they shouldn't use our followers. They must build their own audience.

Author M. I. Verras (She/Her) @miverraswriter.bsky.social · 3d

I would have mentioned something if I had to bring it to someone's attention, so no worries.

Author M. I. Verras (She/Her) @miverraswriter.bsky.social · 3d

The reason I posted this warning is because someone posted a weird page about a wanted political criminal under my book. Unacceptable. I removed the post, I messaged the user reprimanding his action, and then blocked him. Some people have to use their brains before they act.

Some users, DO NOT post politics or irrelevant stuff under my book posts. You will be blocked.

THE not-so-ordinary HIDDEN FACE is hiding deeper messages.
