Amazon's new rankings updates are frustrating. This is my 3rd day of a 5 day FREE promo. Averaging 1200 downloads a day. Likely should be number one in all my categories, but rank hasn't updated and the book is still showing in the paid store. Frustrating.

The last time I had this many downloads during a Kindle FREE promotion I hit the number one spot in Horror. 24 hours into the current promo and my rankings haven't updated. Amazon is still displaying my 'paid' store ranking. www.amazon.com/dp/B0FCCY4C11

What is wrong with giving a new leader a chance? A new approach, a fresh approach. Someone who has integrity, leadership skills, represents a key state, has guts and the confidence of the base. Time to put ego aside and screw seniority. This is my nominee.

Wife says, "What are you doing today?" "Got to get in some writing," I say. "Why?" "Rescue dog needs a transport." "Where to?" "Tampa. St. Pete, actually." "With traffic, that'll be an all day thing." "Probably," she says. "He was a stray tied to a post." "What time do we leave?"

I did a thing about this on Xitter. Here are screenshots. It's the only one I saved.

2020 thread of pitching a near-future novel on COVID to an editor in 1998. Editor is interested and intrigued...

Editor starts worrying about where the story is going. Then you say, "Oh, I forgot one thing. While all this is going on, Donald Trump is President." Editor yells, "GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY OFFICE!!!!"

We picked up our new #foster dog last night. This is Loki. He's about the size of a horse (though a bit underweight). He's sweet and friendly and already making himself at home. How long will he be with us? Who knows? He's our fifth (I think) and the longest was with us for five months.

Barry K Gregory @barrykgregory.bsky.social · 28/02/2025

History will remember #Zelenskyy as a hero and true freedom fighter. Much of the world sees him that way now. History will remember Trump and Vance et al as the disgraceful, loathsome, dictator-loving, Putin-apologist anti-American toads they have revealed themselves to be. Impeach them now!

Because the audiobook for my novel A Thing Immortal is exclusive to #Audible, Audible pays me 40% of each sale. I set my price at $24.95 and then Audible apparently sells it for whatever they want and my 40% averages out to about $5 a unit every month. 1/2 🧵

Got a DM yesterday from a guy who said he enjoyed my novel A Thing Immortal but after reading some of my posts "bawling about the president" he determined I lacked the morality for someone he wanted to follow. #writing 1/3🧵

Bruce MacKinnon, the editorial cartoonist at the Halifax Chronicle-Herald, drew this last November. No newspaper would print it. It now deserves an outing.

A cartoon is headed “How tariffs work”. It proceeds to show a cartoon of Trump in his suit and red tie taking a piss towards a fan with a Canadian maple leaf on it. The fan blows Trump’s piss back into his face.
It was drawn and is signed by Bruce MacKinnon and is dated November 26, 2024

we have a president with a tenuous grip on small legislative majorities who is out of the gate with a flurry of dramatically unpopular orders and who has just demonstrated his weakness on the international stage. if i were an elected member of his domestic opposition, i might try to draw real blood.
