Non-writers are wondering why in the replies, and it's basically math. Authors typically make a few bucks or less /copy and even a Big 5 book can sell <10k and that might even meet expectations (depending). Like all things in capitalism, it's uneven, with a small minority of authors selling lots.

Toussaint Louverture.

Toussaint Louverture.

Haitian General Toussaint Louverture was one of the biggest thieves in history! He hit the biggest lick of all time! He stole 10,714 square miles of land, and 500,000 slaves! Seriously!

France forced him and the freed Black Haitians to pay reparations to plantation owners for the "lost property."🀑

We're expecting to see them this Wednesday if the weather stays as expected.

I don't know if specifically these guys, but definitely spotted salamanders and a bunch of frogs.

I'm hoping I get the rest of my stuff done in time that I can join up with a group planning to help them cross the road.

A wildlife refuge in Washington hired a bullfrog catcher because the invasive bullfrogs are threatening an Oregon spotted frog or whatever but THE POINT IS I can't stop laughing at the picture of him they chose to put on Facebook. That man has two armfuls of Kermits. He is a Muppet villain.

Currently Reading: A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms by George R RΒ Martin A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms by George R R Martin Last month I went to my first meeting of a local Sci-fi book club when I saw they were reading Frankenstein. A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms by George R R Martin is the next book they selected and even though the meeting is in four days, I'm going to try my hardest to read through this in time.

Last year I didn't get to do much for the amphibian migration because the warm rainy nights started after 10pm every time which is great for the amphibians because there are less cars in the road at the time so it's likely more survive, but I selfishly hope I can hold a spotted salamander this year.

An explainer on where to start with Claudie Arseneault’s books decorated in aromantic and asexual colours. It contains information about 3 series starters.
City of Strife (City of Spires) has a large cast of queer characters; mosaic-style POV, is novel length, has four books that form one big continuous story, and contains city politics and unrelenting kindness + love in the face of cruelty
Baker Thief (Val-de-mer) has a limited # of POV (dual for Baker Thief), is novel length, all books stand alone, and is set in a city inspired by QuΓ©bec, with romance tropes but made platonic
Awakenings (the Chronicles of Nerezia) has a single main POV, is made of novellas, has an episodic format that works better read in order, and is JRPG inspired, with a found family road trip

I have so many series! Just SO MUCH queer fantasy with platonic relationships at their heart <3 The below is as much information as I could cram in about them, and it doesn't even get to COMMON BONDS or my own short story collection. XD
