Amazon has been punishing authors who are enrolled in KU and have their books uploaded to pirating websites.

Don't be a dick. Don't pirate books. Sign this petition.

Just saw someone call a pirating website an "accessible digital library." 💀

If an author's work is on there without permission, it has been STOLEN. It is copyright infringement. Otherwise known as illegal. Believe it or not, this hurts authors.

Do better.

@somuchanemoia @edgeofsammy People who steal from indie authors are scum. 👍

@Suddenlink switched to @optimum and that's the story of how I'm having one of the worst nights of my life. You know that feeling when you have the most important project of your life due in 5 hours and have no internet? Yeah, I do.

Leaving for a three day vacation tomorrow. Haven't been away from my dog for more than 24 hours in the three and a half years since I got her. Just dropped her off for boarding. Never realized how often I look for her in the house until she's not here. 😞

I've been writing with a co-author for years. We've published several books in a series. But tonight, I finished writing my very first book that is all mine. I'm feeling all sorts of ways about it.

Why did no one warn me how hard it is to write the ending of a book? I don't want it to be over. 😭

You could write an extremely compelling piece of dystopian fiction about a world in which a plague forces everyone to hide away indoors, checking their country's health department's official profile on an innocuous social media website for the latest death counts.

oh wait 🫠

@POTUS Healthcare is kind of an emergency too. I'm close to losing my medication that allows me to keep the ability to WALK because it's not considered "medically necessary." So...you know...maybe look into that?

[Chelsea Thornton @chelseactually]

I may have to go off my therapy for my chronic, disabling illness because the healthcare system in this country is rubbish and vile.

But how is YOUR day going? 🙃

I wanted my baby. My husband and I have tried for years. I got pregnant in august 2021 and then miscarried. My body doesn’t naturally expel so I needed a D&C. I was denied one because my doctor was worried about the laws here in Texas. I waited for 2 WEEKS carrying my loss while
