That is probably why a lot of agents and publishers (it seems to me) are shy about rolling the dice on new authors. Reading the potential audience, the needed investment, etc. can be like casting bones.
It looks like she is still part of Bluesky, just as the Chief Innovation Officer. It is still terrible news but slightly less bad, maybe.
The only time manspreading is acceptable.
This is why I exclusively drive wind-up cars.
(The "duh" was aimed at me, if it wasn't obvious.)
Was 2024 the "not going to buy a guitar" year? It must have been. Congrats, either way!

This is great timing for me. Was just working on this yesterday. I really don't want to dive too deep into the formatting options. Now I feel less pressure to do so.
This reads as truly autobiographical.

the base rate, then you do not have a large sample size to explore causal factors with, at least in the wild. You'll need an animal model or cell cultures to do a lot of the heavy lifting in really pinpointing a why.
