I remember someone apologizing for constantly checking my audiobooks out from the library instead of buying them on Audible, and they were surprised that three library checkouts of Eyrie probably earned me more royalties than Audible would've paid me for a purchase via credit. ($2.70 vs $1.80).
Libraries purchase books. When you see a book at the library, it isn’t “free”
the library bought it.
which in turn means that the community bought it.
In other words, library books are not lost sales for authors and publishers; they’re positive sales. Active sales. Those are bought.

It’s baby octopus season 🐙🦑
Saw this little guy last night with the Salish Sea School in Anacortes, WA as part of their free community dock walk I volunteer as an interpreter for.
We can tell it is a giant pacific octopus from the single line of chromatophores on each arm.

Francis Ford Coppola is the most famous director to do Dracula and his version diverges widely from the book, so every day I awake mad that his is the one they called BRAM STOKER'S DRACULA.

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes.
The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last.
The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes.
Why?
It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.

Every single sale makes my day like nobody's business
When y'all buy from indie authors, it impacts us profoundly. Especially if it goes outside the circle of authors trading a few dollars back and forth amongst ourselves.
I expected to sell 200 copies in the first year in my wildest dreams and it’s wound up selling 4,000 in that time 🥹

I’ve said this before, a lot, but when you’re an author and your book doesn’t sell your feelings can default to the premise, “Everyone in the world was offered my book and they all personally rejected it.” The truth is most people don’t know it exists. Awareness is the problem, not you or your book.

My doctors recently ordered antibody labs on me for MMR, etc. to make sure I still have protection and don’t need boosters. Other immunofuckedup folks should look into getting that done if possible!
