@adobe.com it seems like the only way you make money is to hook people and do a subscription and then not cancel it month after month after month. You have taken hundreds of dollars for something that sucks

My Experience at WBOM Radio: Engaging with Local Poets On October 14th, I attended James Hamilton's radio show and open mic in Rockford, Illinois, despite initial hesitation. Engaging with local poets like Luke Welch and Denali was rewarding. The night featured powerful performances, including a moving poem on autism. The event highlighted the vibrant Rockford poetry culture and community pride.

Self-Publishing vs. Small Presses Should you self-publish? Should you go with a small press? I have done both. With either of them, there are questions to ask. Questions to find the answer to about the small press publisher you are considering. The first question is to determine if they are legit. Google them and look at websites like Writers beware. I also recommend finding one of their authors and reaching out to them and ask them directly.

No More Ugly Girls began with an exploration of the pain many women carry within them silently. Trauma, abuse, and misogyny tell them they are ugly until they believe it. Human nature tends to make us tell lies to ourselves. Women have the extra burden of the lies our culture tells about them.

No More Ugly Girls The content discusses how women often endure internal struggles and societal misconceptions, emphasizing the importance of recognizing and embracing their inner strength.

Honest request for feedback on the title. No More Ugly Girls for a novel. Cause that’s the name of my new novel.

5 years ago, I had an agent and big dreams but zero book deals. After 150+ rejections, I parted ways with
my agent & signed with a small press. The duology they said would “die on sub”? Now it’s a 6-book deal.

Rejection isn’t the end. Keep going.

What if we Put ICE Resources into all Crimes The republicans are spending a lot of money on tracking down illegal aliens. They want to come to court houses and schools and pretty much anywhere to find them. So much money is being sprayed around so that sick children and children are being deported. Women in communities are being dragged away as neighbors protest. We have men in masks disappearing people.
