I came across an amazing story that started with explosive decompression aboard a 747, veered into a quarter billion dollar bank robbery accomplished with black magic, and just got stranger from there.

Three parts so far on my newsletter. I couldn't make this stuff up. It wouldn't be allowed.

Any authors out there using Buttondown for their readers’ mailing list? I have questions.

Okay, the cover image in my last post looks kind of huge, like impolitely so. I thought it would resize to whatever Bluesky wants, but apparently not.

Is there a commonly accepted size for cover images that doesn't feel like I'm screaming at everyone?

Cover of #1 in my spy novel series. Five books using this same motif. I'm planning to relaunch this summer. I like these covers, but they aren't typical of my genre, and they tie me to the supply of shots of this model. Would you keep them or do all new covers?

I'm new at this. I will come up with a better banner image.

Hey, I made my own hashtag for later use!!

You're putting out books, and then there's a pandemic that messes up your whole routine and throws you off your stride. And then one day you wake up and realize you haven't published anything in like four years! Now what? Damn!
