Landlord replaced the AC core original to this 25 year old house. It works too good. I live in AZ, sometimes we need the AC in the winter, too.

I haven't shaved my head in almost five years. I haven't shaved my face in two. I supplement my writing income with panhandling.

Any other authors write by hand? This is my vintage Parker Flighter 45, gold nib. It's filled with Noodler's Heart of Darkness. I find the quality of my writing is better when I write by hand.

Twitter is a waste of time. I posted a tweet nine hours ago. Six views. No one went to my link at all. It's a free story, I'm not going to PAY to advertise a FREE story! Why am I shadow banned?

I threw £8 at Tiktok to boost a promo vid for my book...

Got over 3600 views, and not a single sale.

In conclusion - Tiktok is a waste of time.

What marketing strategies have you tried that have achieved nothing?

I do both, kinda. I write by hand, then I transcribe into a master doc. Then I grab a chapter and edit it before posting to Royal Road.

[Shane Donovan @SDDonovan]

Serious question. When you write, do you have a separate file for each chapter (I do), or do you have one big file for the entire novel?

[Michael Hammor @MichaelHammor]

@webnovelfinder I have most of the ending pre written. I'm changing a lot in the middle, where the story is now, so the next ten chapters or so will be fresh. Once that is done, I can increase my posting frequency using my old ending.

@webnovelfinder Thanks for the repost!!

Could you take a moment to pitch your book in the comments and add an eye-catching image? Maybe it will snag you a sale!

Would you ever consider co-writing a book with another author?

[Michael Hammor @MichaelHammor]

@traderjoeslut Make sure I'm an overweight balding unsuccessful writer.

@extrememojo Thank you! I'm a guitarist, too. Right now my daily playing rig is my Epiphone Dot through my really old zoom processor.
