Second Beta reader said of my first chapter, "This is the kind of quality I would expect from a published book." Could this really happen? Looking for agents once all my Beta readers come back...

Submitting short stories to magazines... I just need at least one publication before I start looking for an agent! #publisher #Writer #shortstory

Just finished 'The Science of Storytelling' by Will Storr. Absolutely incredible book. What is your MC's sacred flaw?

So I've finished my first novel...

Just had incredible feedback from a Beta reader who I met online (so I'm fairly certain they don't want to spare my feelings). Perhaps the dream could come true! #novel #WritingCommunity #writing #scifi #scifibooks #publish

If there was a place that you could go, just for sauna and ice baths, would you go regularly? Imagine somewhere between a spa and a tanning salon. Imagine you could pay via membership or per session. Is that something you would use? #Entreprenuer #sauna #business

@MuddyFoxCycling the first time I used your alloy track pump, it broke. Literally 10 pumps in. First and last time I ever buy Muddy Fox. The quality is a joke. Why even sell something like this? Some of the best kit I've had has been budget price range. Scammers. #MTB #cycling

Is it just me or have book covers gone down hill? Even the 1992 cover of Ender's Game is so much better than any modern ones! #books #bookcovers #scifiart #scifibooks #endersgame #WritingCommnunity

I wish game designers would explore more diverse aesthetics.

Another World and Cuphead come to mind as great examples of something different. I would love to see a game with a 70s psychedelic scifi fantasy art aesthetic.

Post an example of something you would like to see!
