I do like both, and I've never understood why this is an issue, is it not the content of the book that matters? Not how that content is delivered? 🤔😁

All language is weird, but I sometimes wonder if English isn't the weirdest 🤔

Also, does that technically make liguistics a Weird Science 😁

In Japanese, "tsundoku" means collecting books and letting them pile up,
not from neglect, but for the joy of knowing they're there, full of untold stories.

Reply by M. Nolan Gray
"Babe, it's not clutter. It's the Japanese practice of tsundoku."

But even then I think TV and movies based on books are often better than a lot of other TV or movie writing, so perhaps it's not all bad? 🤔😁

As a society, we need to stop pretending that YA is a decent genre when it's the literary equivalent of a marvel movie.

Years ago, my Mother-in-law began reading, "The Exorcist". She said it was the most evil book she ever read. So evil in fact, she couldn't finish it, took it over to the beach and threw it into the ocean off a fishing pier.

| went and bought another copy, ran the faucet over it and left it in the night table drawer by her bed. My Father-in-law said that night was the first time she ever screamed and fainted.

I'm going to Hell, but I'll go laughing.

Today is Nabokov’s birthday.

A serious butterfly specialist and a brilliant #literature professor in the US, famous for his lectures.

Speaking of Lolita: he did not write a #romance. He wrote a chilling masterclass in manipulation and self-justification.

Predators like #Epstein crave beautiful alibis. #Nabokov offers none. He gives us a liar so eloquent that the #readers has to struggle not to be deceived.

Friends!

Today, I present to you the cover of Convergence of Connection!

Isn’t it stunning? 🤩 🥰

Check out my latest blog post for an in-depth look at what’s on the cover, and to read the blurb. (NOTE: The blurb talks about what happens in book three; naturally, that means there are spoilers for books one and two.)

Blog post: https://sarahjhoodlet.com/blog/cover-reveal-convergence-of-connection/

#CoverReveal #Books #ComingSoon #Fantasy #RomanticFantasy #Readers #WritingCommunity #SelfPublishing #IndieAuthor #Author

The cover of Convergence of Connection, the third book in The Way of the Wielder series.

Featured is a young woman standing in an active pose, her arms out before her, with four elemental spheres floating in the air at her side (green, gray, red, and blue). Behind her is a green and golden misty background, with leaves around the edges.

Between the title and the author’s name is a vignette of an angelic figure hovering above a glass-like surface, staring out into a starlit sky. The vignette is in golden tones, which blends into the background above.

Reading for pleasure in childhood may shape later development in remarkable ways.

A recent large-scale study found associations between early pleasure reading and better cognitive performance, improved mental well-being, and even differences in brain structure in adolescence.
