The Maine primary is in what, June? People really wanna die on the unrepentant Nazi tattoo hill instead of, idk, using the next eight months to support somebody else?

PSA to all authors affected by the Anthropic settlement: You don't have to file your claim right now. You have until March 2026 to do so. My agent advised that I should wait a little while and let things shake out. You *can* file now but it won't hurt to wait a bit and it might benefit you.

Recently I taught a class that discussed hybrid publishing, and it made me realize that some writers believe paying a hybrid will relieve them of marketing and promoting their book. Unhappy wake-up call: it doesn't matter how you publish. You still have to market and promote if you want sales.

Unless you're boycotting, this is a good time to buy from indie authors on Amazon. October's the last month with sales paying out in 2025. Payments hit on Dec. 29, giving your faves some much-needed end-of-year income!

Platner--begging Democrats to start finding young, NON-NAZI (& ideally leftist) candidates in as many states as possible to be mentored by older Dems for upcoming races. Older Dem politicians, you can make great new candidates your legacy! It will only make you look better. #sigh
