@justpublishing TLDR: every sentence in a paragraph should relate to/support the first sentence. When that's no longer the case, start a new one.

@BookRefuge @PeaceLuvBooks @libraryoftomes This happened to me couple days ago. The app, awful as it is, was still operating normally, though and let me update what I needed to.

FAKE NEWS has become such a broad term, I think we need to start getting more precise. I propose the following taxonomy:

False News - the news is inaccurate rather than deliberately misleading.
Counterfeit News - fake news has been obviously and deliberately manufactured.

[Nicole R. Locker @nicolerlocker]

@DavidGaughran Still better than those *Verified* 1 star reviews that simply say "I never bought this book."

Let's talk about the NYT bestseller list (a thread): People *care* about this list + according to a 2004 study, it increases book sales. Even if it doesn't, I think it's fair to say that authors dream of hitting that list and it matters to marketing.

[Kharma Kelley @kharmakelley]

I'm gonna stay on this cause it really bothers me. To all businesses shelling out some #BlackLivesMatter statements on how you stand with us in the community and workplace, I have 3 words for you:

👏SHOW👏THEM👏RECEIPTS!👏
