Outstanding book and outstanding cover. I tend to prefer Pengin's covers to the old ones.

@the3rdletter.bsky.social How do you usually visualize a story while you read it?πŸŽ₯πŸ“–
Pictured: Way of Kings art by u/jessichenliu (Banger wallpaper material). This is pretty similar to how I pictured the story when I read the book. I tend to see things like a highly realistic animation.

You guys should really check out Animyst0 on Instagram. I've commissioned them myself and their art is super underrated.

It would be super cool if @fitzyva.bsky.social got a future role in #knightsofguinevere actually. I don't know what the existing plans for the plot are, but if there's some sort of evil Guinevere or other robot antagonist, it would be the absolute best to hear her evil robot voice again!

I've been enjoying the hell out of this Frostpunk board game. Decided to get the expansion even though I can't even beat the base game yet. We'll see how it goes!

Developmental editing my book, Bondage of Magics, right now. Progress is so satisfying. More than ever, this part of the process is when you watch the story take its final shape. Especially early on, when you do a lot of re-aligning for why characters are where they are and do what they do.

Best writing advice I got from a friend was to write people completely different from me. When making a character, instead of starting with straight white men, I start with gay black women, and my inherent biases shift all the characters in my direction, resulting in a scatter plot of a cast.

Went out collecting signatures for a referendum petition on the atrocious HB267 law that passed in Utah recently. They're trying to bust our unions, and they'll come for yours too if you let 'em.

Pictured: me n bro with 14 signatures in an hour!

Found out that TWENTY emails is considered a lot to politicians on an issue.

TWENTY.

As in, they call that getting slammed.

So next time you see a request to email your rep, or call, keep that in mind.

TWENTY is a lot.

Does anyone else have a TEFL certificate and use it without going abroad? What do you do with it domestically?

I've had the same experience! I think they're a must-have resource for #booksky #indieauthors. Just commissioned them to do box set art too!

To other Indie authors, I'm thinking about starting a blog, and the more I think about it the more I wonder why I didn't do that already. Do you guys have blogs? How do you use them? #booksky #indieauthor

I usually did 2 a month last year while I was publishing at a fast pace. I experimented with lots of lengths and formats, and I think the best emails are brisk, to the point, and personable.

I would say it's less of a seasonal thing and more of an in-between-projects thing. Inertia after finishing something is dangerous!
