I usually prefer the socially unacceptable forms, but I'll allow it 😜😁

Disagree 🤔 I mean it would be easier without all that writing but it's also the only requirement for being a writer 😁

Personally I like to edit in new and improved typos with every round of editing 😁 Even grammar has to 'Evolve or Die' in this new fast paced world 😜😂

Shout-out to the typos that make it through three rounds of content edits, copyedits, and two rounds of proofreading. I am inspired by your dedication and tenacity.

I mean I really thought no one loved the spectacluar Plains of Procrastination in the super-comfy Lands of Laziness more than me, but I guess this little hobbit is going on an adventure 😂

Monthly reminder: Many people have a book in them, but it takes a special kind of freak to leave the Land of Laziness, cross the Plains of Procrastination and Insecurity Mountain, find the Blade of No One Made You Do This, and use it to cut your chest open and yank that book out.

Stranger: It must be great to be a fantasy author. You can write whatever you want.
Me, rewriting 1/4 of my narrative because my characters live too far apart: Yeah, Great.

The fact that marketing more than quality influences what becomes popular is proof that we live in an inherently unjust universe 😜😁

A meme captioned: When god makes indie authors
1: A spoonful of determination
2: Some wit and courage
3: An extra dose of natural writing talent
4: But they can't have everything. I'll add just a dash of poor marketing skills
5: *Whoops* As he spills the entire dose...

This makes me wonder if this is where Douglas Adams character Drik Gently got his chatchpharse "Everything's connected" from, and not as implied the general interconnectedness of all things 🤔 😂
