In case there was any confusion... 🎧 Audiobooks count as reading. πŸ“š Debut books aren't inherently bad. ✍🏻 Some books have prologues; some don't. Both things are fine. Get over it. πŸ€– AI "creators" are talentless, lazy thieves. Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

A lot of people are suddenly seeing me and it's weird. I bet I can fix it by saying, hey, I have a weekly show and I've published books...

I love Halloween. I love everything about it, from the decorations and costumes to the art and history (s/o Lisa Morton). Anyway, your top three Halloween activities? Here are mine: - Worshipping Satan - Putting razor blades in apples - Handing out LSD to unsuspecting children

I decided to make my horror comedy, monster-filled, pun-heavy, disgusting undead breakup book free this week! If you need a spooky season read, this is definitely for you! πŸ”—

Noticed a new trick from the scummy 'marketing' scammers: pretending to be from KDP. My lovely, lovely authors... Amazon KDP do not have a 'book visibility and discoverability' team. Contrary to two separate BS emails I've had today. I should just start posting my inbox...

If all these people who are so desperate to 'help me' sell copies of my books would actually buy one themselves, I might have the figures they claim they can get their clients. C'mon, marketing bots, put your money where your mouth is. Lead by example.
