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.
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."π€‘

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.

A member of the once-near-extinct species has taken up residence in the East River. But why?
There's a new hot bird in town! And it's the first time NYC has ever seen a trumpeter swan, in recorded history (after it came back from the brink of extinction). In the last week, it's been spotted frequently hanging out with one of our mute swans π

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 Arseneaultβs 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
