Typing "I suck at summaries, just read and review" in the 520 field for every single book in my cataloguing pile

I feel like with being online there's this impossible balance where you have to be real (so people can relate to you) but not too real (people find it unappealing) and no matter how good you are at it, every so often a total stranger will lose their shit at you.

I have a face for radio, a voice for print, and a personality for being sealed away in a tomb for five thousand years.

I don't tell anyone IRL that I write unless I trust them deeply and have known them for a long time, because I have found that people become really strange and creepy about it. It's like you stop becoming a person to them and start becoming a product. IDK if I'm explaining it clearly.

I blink and four weeks have gone by and I've done nothing.

I don't even know what I would do on booktok. "Hey, this is my book. it's purple." "Hey it's me again. Still book. Still purple." "Hey yeah it's me with the purple book. Today we're going to play 'can I throw my book through this basketball hoop?' Um, looks like that's a no. Okay see you next time."

The nature of the internet is sometimes someone you've never spoken to in your life will come out of nowhere just to be mad at you.

Authors, I'm a bit late sharing this as I got distracted after seeing it on discord, but sharing for anyone who distributes paperbacks via Ingram Spark (directly, via Amazon's expanded distribution, or via Draft to Digital.)
