I've been crafting a great short story for an event I've got coming later this month, so I've been reflecting on what it takes to write a compelling story when constrained by word count.

What do you think are the most important things in a short story?

This was my first ever panel as an author and I got the wonderful opportunity to speak on something I'm really passionate about; video game narratives.

Terrible journey getting to Chester for FantasyCon but @MHAyinde suffered it together. Got here and went out for pierogi with @AnnabelCWrites before her panel talking about romancing characters in Bulder's Gate. I guess it hasn't been too horrible today considering the start...

Like a good user experience for search, is one that focuses on giving you the answers you need. However, because of its integration with Ad Sense, it doesn't show you the 'best' results, it shows you the ones that people have paid to show you: Ads are the opposite of good search

[Dan Hanly 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 @danhanly]

The Google Breakup is logical, to me. Even if they just split off the Ad Sense arm. Ads are counter to a good user experience, so any advancement any part of Google can make in creating the best products that they can are inevitably going to be harmed by their need to support ads

@RyRyLaughton That looks idyllic

Self publishing is HARD. It feels like you're cutting out the middleman, before realising that the entire time, the middleman is an entire team of specialists. I can't JUST be an author, I have to also edit, design, market, support.... #selfpublishing

Can't wait to go to #FantasyCon in Chester next month. It's going to be my first convention as a #fantasy author and I'm looking forward to meeting my peers, many of whom I've only spoken to online.

So far thrilled at the response I'm getting on my new cover for The Great Leap. It fits the vibe of the book so much better, and readers seem to agree so far: #darkfantasy #fantasy #books #kindleunlimited https://t.co/Zqm5G0XuCR

The Great Leap is available in my local library system, which makes me so filled with pride. It's amazing that anyone can now go to any of the RCT libraries and order the book to read for free. There's 5 copies in circulation: Hirwaun, Aberdare (x2), Treorchy & Mountain Ash.
