once again begging the world to read a book

I won't link to my books this time, but a free short story. (If you enjoy this, the rest of my links are pinned on my profile.) www.booksie.com/774537-human

@bsky.app For the love all that is holy and unholy, please give us an AI filter. The AI slop on here is making the app almost unusable.

This is how I want to die.

Everything reminds me of her...

Where the hell is Butcher's hideout in this season of The Boys that they have a radiation exposure chamber built in? I must have missed the scene that explains where they are.

Tequila bottles on Arrakis must be enormous.

Possibly unpopular opinion? I think artists should get to sign the art they make for book covers. It should be right there, on the front, because it’s never been more important to showcase the humanness of art. And also there are many times when I see a beautiful cover and wonder, “Who made this?”

What a good book could possibly do to you.. 📖📚🔖 So, read more 💚 #books #reading

We lost another legend. Tom Kane has passed away today, who was best known for voicing Professor Utonium and HIM from "The Powerpuff Girls." His voice will always be with my childhood. Thank you for the wonderful memories, Tom. May Rest in Peace🕊️

Hello Internet People. Help me spite D2D one last time before I delist and delete in June. Buy print copies of my books! Well, some of them anyway. #booksky books2read.com/ap/RQAwv9/Al...

I don't think this ol' guy is going to be around much longer.

Friends, let's talk books!

Every pizza is personal size if you believe in yourself enough…

The name is Bland. James Bland.

Post your warning sign

Audiobooks are frequently available for free from your library. It’s amazing what happens when the narrator knows what words actually mean.

I can think of many books that have ‘stayed with me’. Can you…. #BookSky

Going in for oral surgery in less than an hour and now that it's here, I don't really want to. 😭

Slow cooker BBQ ribs. They just fell apart as I spooned them out of the cooker.

I'm slowly corrupting my book club into reading really, really weird shit.

We, the employees at Hachette Book Group, are proud to announce that we are unionizing with Washington-Baltimore NewsGuild-CWA Local 32035, of the AFL-CIO, in order to ensure better benefits, protections, and rights for workers as well as increased equity, transparency, and agency in the workplace.

Finally, some good news: workers at Hachette are unionizing, and you can sign an open letter of support. This is the way! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Don’t judge a book by its review count. I met a fellow indie crime author who exchanged books with me. He only had 1 review. Started reading & it’s damn good! Review count doesn’t = quality. Sometimes great books just haven’t been discovered yet. Give indie books a chance. #AuthorSky #BookSky

A good narrator can feel like a friend telling a tale. Happens to me as well.

Why do I mirror the mood of the main character in a book when reading it or in an audiobook when listening to it? I can't help it, it just happens.

Want a quick read that's supernatural post-apocalyptic romance all under 2000 words? Might I suggest Human by Yours Truly? #writing #writesky #booksky www.booksie.com/774537-human

Anyone know who the artist is for this cover? It's beautiful.

Even though published almost 4 years ago, this is the best article I've read about book bans. I hope you'll read and share it. #BookSky

I am nothing but transportation for cats.

Both very valid techniques.

Frank Oz is extremely underrated as an actor whose line delivery becomes instantly iconic. Like both Yoda and Ms Piggy could have ended up extremely aggravating characters, but he never lets them be one note comic relief.

I am delisting my books from D2D. If you don't want to use Amazon, I just uploaded all my ebooks as EPUB and PDF for sale on my personal Ko-Fi store (which supports me directly). I'll upload to other markets when the novelettes are done. ko-fi.com/rebeccaevita... #IndieApril #Ebooks #D2D #Books

It was hackers from X, wasn't it? This began the social media wars of the 21st Century.

Bluesky seems to be having issues this morning.

Slow-cooker beef curry for dinner tonight. Forgot to take a picture, but it looked savory and it was.

I only need glasses to see anything closer than 10 feet. 😆

What's an all-time favorite line in a movie? Followed by "There are things about me you wouldn't understand. Things about me you couldn't understand. Things about me you *shouldn't* understand."

Sure.

Audiobooks aren't my only skill. Chicken Provençal with Tomatoes and Olives

WHO WANTS TO READ SOME SUPER DARK URBAN FANTASY?!?

The ebook of my sci-fi novel Windswept Flower Over a Blooming Moon is discounted from April 11th to the 18th. It's about Diana, who quits her job, grabs her dead grandpa's spaceship, and goes on a journey to, with only a computer in her head for company. #indieauthor books2read.com/b/4AoPoK
