Just finished making this

@law_meyers @CynicalLatina I will take option 1 for the rage baiting joy it gives me!

@CynicalLatina @RDiptson With an "Askhole", (I like this noun and thank you for sharing 😊. ), there are some options. 1. Answer questions with irrelevant questions. 2. Give them dumb looks. 3. Stare until they shut up. 4. Smile, turn around and walk away. Soon, they'll stop. 5. Or, ask if it's 🌧 now

These people drive me insane! Like why ask if you aint gonna listen?

Gansta 😎😎

@EllieJayWrites 😂🤣😂 but we would be less entertained...so it's a trade off.

Apparently, there's more bookish drama happening. Something about reviews? I swear, if some people invested as much time in writing as they do in fighting other authors on the internet, they'd be a lot happier.

@Pro__Author Yes.

Are you more productive with coffee at dawn or wine at midnight?

Just swing by a local brick and mortar for new books to read and different voices to learn from! Let's gooo!!!

@JohnnyRychous @Lizzie_Chantree @NL_Mclaughlin Yessir! When you get a chance swing by and check out some of my work!

@RDiptson @Lizzie_Chantree @NL_Mclaughlin I appreciate the support Richard. Thank you! 🙏

😆🫣📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚

@JasonWMizer @jroberts1324 🤣😂 after you find the authors you have to find the readers! 😂😂😂

@jroberts1324 First... you must comb the desert. 🤪👍

Hey authors! I'm guilty of just using twitter to promote my books. Is there any real author discourse on here and how do I find it? #writingcommunity

@JGuentherAuthor @jroberts1324 When you find them tag me cuz I need em too!

@jroberts1324 A better question: Are there any readers on here, and how do I find them?

@AlyssaMatesic Thanks for this. It's great motivation for pushing a little harder towards all the other things that need to happen after drafting!

Writing a book is a MASSIVE achievement. Even if it's not perfect. Even if no one has read it. Even if it never gets published. So no matter what happens next, take the time to appreciate everything you have done so far. The simple act of finishing an entire first draft is worth celebrating. You did that. 🎉

@KGRussellwrites Hey congrats! That's awesome! 🍻🙌🎉

One of those rare days in the life of a #writer. I opened my inbox and thought it was yet another rejection. the Email said, "...we would like to publish Sweet Witchteen. If you’re game, please send us the following information so we can put together your contract."

@KBCox_15 Congrats! If it is of course I'd not, fuck that agent/publisher they don't know what they missed out on!

Is that a request shaped email in my inbox?? 🫣 #amquerying

@CatArthurian Well I'm worried that readers might not buy into it . I dunno I have so many dumb fears, and little sales to back up the fears or confirm them.

@RDiptson Why not? That might be a good hook..

Can a novel open with the ending and then flashback to show how everything led there?

@Lizzie_Chantree @NL_Mclaughlin @JohnnyRychous Thank you, but I don't think it's luck at my stage, it's more skill. I need to skill up a bit more. Thankfully I'm a quick study!

@RDiptson @NL_Mclaughlin @JohnnyRychous It sounds like you have a great selection of reads to choose from. Good luck with your latest manuscript!

@DorisKluin @KT_Carlisle It's one reason I haven't bought in. Also congrats!

@KT_Carlisle Ads oder Werbeaktion? Ich verkaufe deutlich langsamer, dafür stetig. Bei ads habe ich den Eindruck, es ist eine Geldverbrennungsmaschine. Sichtbarkeit ist teuer.

Second month in a row that I get to say I'm a three-figure author. 🥹 I'm going to savor this because I can no longer afford what it takes to get these results. It was fun while it lasted, though. 🥰

@StoniAstley Honestly prob drama, but like the boring slow kind. Not much payoff, just a dude doing his thing and then boom get fired after a workplace injury. No one takes the case and dude begins writing with little success.

If you were to write a novel based on your current (or a past) job, what genre would it be set in? For example: a romance, drama, or horror story?

@Lizzie_Chantree Very difficult to answer. Im a writer myself, I recently read a lot of dune and now I'm reading some books by an indie author, @NL_Mclaughlin, and @JohnnyRychous . I mean they are great and all but they aren't Milton Burrows....

@RDiptson Hi Richard. I tend to read romance or non-fiction. Who is your favourite author?

@MillerDakotaJ Please 🙏 I need this, I just wanna be a good person😭🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I actually make myself as unlikable as possible. Which means if you like me, you're a horrible person.

@QueenAnticommie That's fucking terrible😂🤣😂🤣😂

This is a game I will never play
