(Also if you know a Royalty-share narrator looking for a new project--spread the word!)

Decided to try my hand at royalty-share audiobook recording again... Had to fill out who my intended audience was for my novella Rebels & Queens ... and just... yeah.

Kate Prada (@kateprada) A quick read while it’s still spooky out!

A little more info on my surprise release!

#paranormalromance #quickread #shortstory #spicybook #booksky #readersofbluesky #reading #romancereader

But to make up for it, I did surprise release my little spooky short story. If you like ghosts and haunted historic homes, this one is a super quick read (And a lil spicy)

My family and I have survived one shutdown, we'll survive another. However, because everything feels so uncertain, I raised my eBook prices from the 99 cents sale I had indefinitely left them on. Sorry if you missed out on a deal but I'll have more again later.

Rebellious horse girl, Maci, just got her heart broken–but you should see the town bicycle’s nose. Good thing her best friend and cousin, former troublemaker, Bailey is there to bail her out of county lockup. Bailey thinks the two of them should get away to relax while the small town finds something else to gossip about. Trouble is, the Pinterest worthy glamping retreat may be a cover for something far more sinister. Straight-laced Jacoby has been assigned to an elite FBI task force. His team is closing in on the latest extremist militia suspected of kidnapping when a wild-eyed girl atop a loose horse crashes into him–literally. Securing her back at his base of operations proves to be troublesome as he, and the militiamen, quickly learn: You can’t keep a cowgirl hostage on a horse farm. Tropes: Wild Hearts, Horse Girl, Daring Escape, Kidnapped, Self Sacrifice, “We Can’t Leave Her Behind!” Refusing to comply, Law Enforcement, Small Town Gossip, Country Girl / City Boy

Rebels and Queens! The fast paced novella of resilience and telling the patriarchy where they can stick it by Kate Prada

Had grand plans of getting back into the swing of things for marketing my books...
...And as soon as the kid headed off to school I immediately dove into all the little cleaning side projects that had been stacking up (Did I really need to wash out a laundry basket??)

We moved in in July and my productivity has tanked. Trying to adopt a come Hell or Highwater mentality when it comes to getting these dang books out... it's slow going to say the least but at least I finally carved out a little writing space #writer #writersofbluesky #writing #indieauthor

Did you guys know I’ve published 5 books?

Yeah I totally forgot about that too 🫣

Just tore through the first 50 pages of a book I was really enjoying. Then the author gave a high schooler (side character) from Jersey a Toyota Hilux
(We can’t get those in the states)

I’ve DNFed for less.

Not ready to give up on it but I’m gonna need a minute.

'Can't stop. Won't stop': Documentary filmmakers face federal funding shortfall PBS has been a home for independent documentaries for more than 50 years. But with the closure of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, nonfiction storytellers have to figure out a way forward.

Dungeon crawler Carl and those TikTok lizard videos are the band aids holding my mental health together these days

it's heartwarming without being too sappy, full of little moments that’ll make you laugh & so full of love you’ll want to hug the book when you’re done! And if you're someone who loves a dog story? Get ready! Lost is an absolute scene-stealer! #books #bookreview #bookrec #read #Bookish #booklover

Happy Release day!

Thank you! This move was a doozy! Hopefully I can salvage the remainder of the year

Kinda settled, kinda back... A little author update while I get started building my author momentum again.

All Kate Prada ebooks are 99¢ for the summer or available on KU. Gritty yet graceful FMCs and MMCs who put up with their shenanigans.

Ok author hiatus has been long enough.

Hi, my name is Kate, and my toxic trait is starting a completely new work in progress and then abandoning every one that came before it.

I posted this on a thread about Author scandals but wanted to post it again bc I’m realizing it might not be as known as I thought. Lena McDonald recently published a book with an obvious AI prompt in it. A prompt in which she clearly ASKED FOR THE AI TO WRITE IN A SPECIFIC AUTHORS WRITING STYLE (J Bree)!! I believe the book has since been removed from Amazon, but wanted more people to be aware I want so they don’t support!! Spread the word! Friends don’t let friends support art theft!!

Author Lena McDonald is blatantly using AI to mimic other popular author’s writing styles

yo wtf

fuck you if you steal and copy authors’ works.

fuck you if you use gen ai and call yourself a writer. you’re an opportunist hack using a theft machine.

Checking the Panama Canal live cams just to see a glimpse of the ship my husband is on and suddenly Widow’s Walks make a whole lot more sense….

“If you had just let me handle this…” should be the title of my memoir

“Just calm down and let people enjoy chatgpt.” Sorry, no. I find it creepy that folks are treating a machine that mimics human speech as their friend / therapist. It is feeding you lies. It is destroying your thinking abilities. Shut it off. Talk to other humans. Go outside.

If you love your library, listen up…
