@vintedUK Vinted has totally let me down. Sent a dress in brand new packaging. Buyer claims that the package was doused in petroleum by Yodel and the dress is ruined. Vinted blames me for packaging and refunds the buyer. The buyer won’t send the dress back because it’s flammable

Tell me fellow writers, what has been your most successful social media marketing tool? Twitter, BookToc, Insta? Does posting on these platforms really help sell your book? #WritingCommunity @scbwi

[Sally Hewitt @PerkinsSaras]

I'm making 2025 all about marketing. It's submission time, folks. Why is writing a perfect 50-word pitch such an impossible feat?#WritingCommunity @writementor @scbwi

Hey @virginmedia Since last week, I have been unable to access my email on Outlook.  I have spent the last hour with your customer service and they have been unable to resolve this.  This is totally unacceptable.
