@NataliaAd14 Γιατί υπάρχει ένα “artificial winner effect” που σημαίνει πως τα τραγούδια που θεωρούνται σίγουρα πως θα πάνε καλά (φέτος, Ελλάδα και Φινλανδία) έχουν μεγάλη απήχηση από την ώρα που κυκλοφορούν, ο κόσμος κουράζεται και κοντά στον διαγωνισμό ένα καινούργιο άκουσμα αναδύεται.

“In the darkness, two shadows, reaching through the hopeless, heavy dusk. Their hands meet, and light spills in a flood like a hundred golden urns pouring out of the sun.”

Being a writer means thinking your story is the best thing ever written, while simultaneously being terrified at the idea of anyone ever reading it.

@Agapi_tl Ποσό παράλληλο με την Margaret στο Crown που είπε κάτι αντίστοιχο στον 4ο κύκλο. 😇

@EvaIoannou4 @epappaki Η φοροδιαφυγή δεν είναι μόνο στο τι δηλώνεις, αλλά και στο τι δέχεσαι να μην δηλωθεί για να το πληρωθείς μαύρα, όπως συμβαίνει σε πολλές περιπτώσεις υπαλλήλων εστίασης (για να φαίνονται λιγότερα και να παίρνουν και επιδόματα).

@FrancescoD_Ales I think @SortedHQ is an app that deserves a spot in such lists. 🙏🏻

@stats_feed Reading books instead of endlessly scrolling. 📖

[J.K. Rowling @jk_rowling]

I've just heard the awful news about Michael Gambon. The first time I ever laid eyes on him was in King Lear, in 1982, and if you'd told me then that brilliant actor would appear in anything I'd written, I'd have thought you were insane. Michael was a wonderful man in additional to being an outstanding actor, and I absolutely loved working with him, not only on Potter but also The Casual Vacancy. My deepest condolences go to Michael's family and everyone who loved him.

Writers be like “I’m going to write a thousand words today” and then spend the day rearranging their bookshelf for the 5th time this week

Why you shouldn't trust writers:

-They will steal your name
-They're constantly listening in on conversations for inspiration
-They will eat all your snacks
-By "open up to me" they mean "my characters need more inner conflict. Tell me yours"
-We know too much... about things

"Let's cancel the call"

[Alexander Pennington @Authoralexp]

Why you should support self published authors:

-Self publishing isn't free and often costs hundreds of dollars.
-Buying a self published book actually makes someone's life better. It will actually matter to them
-It's only $3.99 and will make a bigger difference than your coffee

Αυτή η ελιά στην Κρήτη εκτιμάται ότι είναι ηλικίας 2900 ετών, δηλαδή φυτεύτηκε τα χρόνια που γράφτηκε η Ιλιάδα του Ομήρου.
