I know I have been quiet this week, been working thru a few health issues after some damage to my knee, I'll try being here again, in between pain pills. Side note, my writing is getting wierd when you doped up lol. #Bluesky #writingcommunity #booksky #writersky #DebutAuthors

I'm from Canada, as an author that is untested, should I be looking into literary agents to promote my writings? #Bluesky #writingcommunity #booksky #writersky #DebutAuthors

I found an old creative writing project from my college days, it's a good concept for a small ebook, maybe my next small project? #Bluesky #writingcommunity #booksky #writersky #DebutAuthors

Plugging along daily trying to get that perfect ending to your legecy of a first novel and the series it is part of, gets a bit frustrating when it's going unrecognized. I'll keep writing, it's a way to express myself. ❤️📖 #Bluesky #writingcommunity #booksky #writersky

It snuck up faster then I expected, big day for 🇨🇦 and truthfully, the 🌎, if the last true democracy of North America falls tomorrow, we are all in trouble. #PollsNotVotes #VoteWell #VoteSmart #NeverConservative #LIBpoli #CANpoli #Bluesky

New author here, quick question for the pros. Is it smart to give out free copies to get reviews, or does that risk of losing sales overpower it? I feel reviews matter just as much as sales when you're just starting out. Thoughts please? #bookreview #writersky #booksky #writers #FirstTimeNovelist

If you are a fiction writer, the world around us is giving you endless material, as of late, to derive from and transform into your own storylines. It's upsetting that we can't always write about butterflies and unicorns. But we work with what we have. #Bluesky #booksky #writingcommunity #writersky

Indie Bookstore Day is one of the most important days for your community’s bookstores. Punkass Amazon decided Apr 23 - 28 was when they needed to have their “Book Sale”. It is designed to snuff out Indie Bookstore Day on April 26.

I wanted to include myself with KDP from Amazon, but I took issue with a few things if I went that way. The exclusive clause, I'm a Canadian Author, I wanted to deal with Canadian publishers. I ended up with Kobo, I know, not Canadian, but has a deal with Chapters Indigo, so there's that. #booksky

As a new author, I know there’s a limit to self-promotion, so I’m leaning into a blog-style approach. Writing takes time, battles with writer’s block, and the quest for engaging, relatable content. I hope readers connect with my work and join me on this journey. #Bluesky #writingcommunity
