The nice thing about talking into the void is that the void rarely disagrees.
Which is more than I can say for certain people.

@Opa_rin I’ve come across @Johnpina256 recently. Very nice

[Filip Janik (writer) @FilipJWrites]

@RetroMoviesDB He is underrated? Since when? I am SHOCKED!

Ok some of his roles certainly are (I am looking at you, Fringe) but Chernobyl? No way that can be underrated.

@rakknm923 Daily Haikyuu fix: done

[Filip Janik (writer) @FilipJWrites]

@jycfz0 Very nice art

@Holliiejanes All. Of. Them. :-D

@stargazetae I don’t want to shamelessly plug my own series which is essentially all yearning :-D i would suggest
The rest of the story (Sarah Dessen) for a YA version
Pride and Prejudice (definition of yearning) if you can do classics
Ready or Not (Cara Bastone) if you don’t mind pregnancy

[Filip Janik (writer) @FilipJWrites]

@hifromolivia Or want recommended? :-)

[Filip Janik (writer) @FilipJWrites]

@hifromolivia Anything you would recommend?

[Filip Janik (writer) @FilipJWrites]

@liteararytea Two of @BrandSanderson ‘s secret novels fit that very well.

Bith wholesome romance. Not much kissing (or more)

Tress of the emerald sea
Yumi and the nightmare painter

First is fairy tale like
Second is anime-style forced proximity

[Filip Janik (writer) @FilipJWrites]

@kelvinmacgregor That is not even 1/3 of it :-D but the horror wing is elsewhere. Then arguably the best books like Different Seasons always somewhere out in the world with various borrowers ;-)

[Filip Janik (writer) @FilipJWrites]

The fantasy wing of my Stephen King bookshelf. It is fairly obvious those books are quite worn :-D and that wear doesn’t include listening to the great audiobook versions

[Filip Janik (writer) @FilipJWrites]

@BooksVita Looking forward to it. Always interested to know what makes people’s top X lists

[Filip Janik (writer) @FilipJWrites]

And what’s worse, it needs to work for both hardcover and paperback (with different page dimensions :-D) how I love kindles at that moment…

[Filip Janik (writer) @FilipJWrites]

Am I the only author on the planet that will absolutely tinker with a chapter for a day to make aure those two scene breaks don’t leave orphans on a page?

[Filip Janik (writer) @FilipJWrites]

This is how you make your own proof copies when KDP refuses to ship to your country. Well at lest the spine seems aligned…

[Filip Janik (writer) @FilipJWrites]

@AleksandraLeci2 It is never black and white. By all means be creative, that is the whole point. Then again, prehaps try giving your names to 2-3 strangers to try and read (without any intro) you may be surprised by the results

[Filip Janik (writer) @FilipJWrites]

@d0st DCC je skvele. Audio kniha snad jeste lepsi. Chtelo by to od @OneHotBook i ceske audio ;-)

[Filip Janik (writer) @FilipJWrites]

@MattFieldUK Writing in English from Czechia can be a bit of a pain :-) but hopefully I can capture at least some of the local market of foreigners. Especially since my series is about Expat life.

@mzhari4 Here is the real guy :-)
