Did Apple TV’s Fountain of Youth movie leave you wanting more? An untold expedition from 1613 may be what you’re searching for. In The Swordsman of Venice: Blade for Hire, the hunt for the fountain runs through the Amazon, lies, and lost loyalties—long before streaming made it trendy. 🗺️⛲️🔥💀 #books

It's funny how the terms "phoned in" and "dialed in" are diametrically opposed.

Hot Take: If you find it challenging to craft a premise line, book blurb, or synopsis, there’s a problem with your story. #writers #authors #writing #writingcommunity #writers

Along with pretty much every other author, my copyrighted books were stolen by Meta and illegally used to train their AI models. This is the biggest theft of intellectual property in history. It should concern everyone, not just creatives. www.theatlantic.com/technology/a... #books #authors

Um, excuse me! The diaper changing pad is not a dog bed!

Tell me you're a scammer without saying you're a scammer. #authors #publishing
