Mark Budman

What do you think about this full cover? The book was published in 2008, but I'm refreshing the cover for the new edition. Thank you.

@SergeyOdessa72 @pennpaperplanes Thank you for your kind words, Sergey.

@budman_mark @pennpaperplanes It’s an honor to connect, Mark. As an author writing from Odesa, I truly value your support for international voices. Your work with immigrant fiction is a bridge that many of us need. Looking forward to your insights! ✍️🌍

Wondering if anyone would be interested in forming a mini critique group? Trading chapters and just providing support throughout the process? Just wanting to see if there's interest!

I'm thinking about an online workshop for critiquing speculative fiction and magic realism, both short stories and longer works. My qualifications: I have several traditionally published books and over a hundred published stories. More here: markbudman.com Let me know.

@kendallbousquet @pennpaperplanes The link, please.

@pennpaperplanes I run a writing + reading community just for this! Any and all are welcome, always. 🤍✨ discord.gg/page-one-12411…

@SergeyOdessa72 @pennpaperplanes Привет.

@pennpaperplanes I'd definitely be interested! I'm currently working on a 100,000-word YA sci-fi novel (Planet Phoenix) and writing a few biopunk short stories. 🦖🚀 I really love the idea of ​​a small, friendly group to share chapters and discuss the writing process! #WritersCommunity

@pennpaperplanes @JeneeDutary I'm game.

@CoreyFarrenkopf Happy birthday.

I turn 35 today! Last year was a weird one, but I’m happy to be heading into this next one with a number of wonderful things on the horizon. As is my birthday ask, let me know your favorite scifi/fantasy/horror/weird lit fic short story recommendations. They bring me joy :)

@CJVickWrites @JeneeDutary What are your qualifications for critique?

@Lost7310 Let me guess. It's not an exterpt from chapter 41?

@budman_mark 42 😁

Convince me to read your book in zero letters (am I doing this right?)

@DanNEO_SS Convincing to read is the first step towards reading.

@budman_mark Many people want to be convinced, but very few truly want to read.

@HJamesWrites Harley James.

Writers, if you could have someone famous read your book, who would it be? 📚📝

@WFuzhi Thank you, Wang. Same to you.

Happy spring, @budman_mark .

Remember those cereal boxes with a surprise inside? amazon.com/DAVID-LYNCH-Wa… @EugeneCScott @budman_mark @wolffmcnamara @thevoguewriters @SuspiciousPig @dcchasenovels @zaaaarbi

I hope this is the final version of my updated cover.

@RGRyan777 Hint: I was born before 1980.

I am replacing one of my book covers. Which one is better? Two new versions.

We need to support each other! If you’re an indie author, you should read other indie authors. And I have many many books to enjoy over the rest of the year, thanks to my call out for books with low reviews 🥰
