People seem to be less and less confident speaking their beliefs #online.
Online, is not where our future battles will be won.

To paraphrase Lenin — the #power is in the #streets, waiting to be picked up by those who know how to use it. #Mamdani figured out how to pick it up in the streets.

In this vein, I exhort you all to help redirect the knowledge we generate online TO THE STREET.

If you have a favorite #blogger, ask them if they’ll begin making their work in an accessible, downloadable, #pamphlet form that can be distributed on the street.

If you are a blogger or #author of substance, please, help us help you. Open your work up to reproduction and on the ground distribution.

We need to educate and infuriate those outside our online bubbles.

Let’s all help get the #WordOnTheStreet.

I've been reading Some Desperate Glory by Emily Tesh recently.

At first, I wasn't really sure about it. But I kept going and I am so glad.

Characters which seem bland at first go through an emotional washing machine. Everything changes.

A single line I came across yesterday really stood out considering current political climates.

"A peace brought about with the threat of violence is only a war in waiting."

Other writers, I'm looking at putting some of my short stories on Book Funnel, making sure to tie it all to my Buttondown email list, but I have a Payhip account. How do you use the 2 without it feeling redundant? I love the fact Book Funnel provides customer support to readers, but it seems like adding Payhip is redundant? Or if I have Payhip, why should I even bother with Book Funnel? #Author#Books#Writing

Whilst I try to only rarely cross-announce on the various writer challenge game hashtags I frequent, I'm doing so because March 30th, today, I am answering questions asked of me on Talk To Me Day hosted by Scribes and Makers. To ask, please include a question and these three items:

#ScribesAndMakers#TTMD @sfwrtr

Follow the two hashtags to participate in the answers and fun.

Here's the announcement: https://indieauthors.social/@saposcat/114240655183968909
