Happy natal anniversary! ☺️

This is the worst timeline. 😞

Everybody's a big ball of anxiety right now, yes? Surely it's not just me. 😞

These have been claimed, yay! ☺️ I hope this spread a little joy. (I have a few other titles to give away, so I'll do another giveaway at some point.)

You're very welcome! I'm trying to make a difference in a small way. :-)

I should add that the slow claim rate is no reflection on Premee or her award-winning work! All my giveaways are like this, sadly. I just don't have enough followers for them to get claimed quickly. πŸ˜”

It's Saturday morning and copies 2 and 3 of The Butcher of the Forest by @premeemohamed.com are still up for grabs! Reading a fae-filled novella is a great way to spend the day. :-)

I'm trying to get through a lot of piddly admin stuff that's been stacking up and making me feel overwhelmed. Progress is steady but it's making me cranky. :-\ Let's see if better music helps. (For science!)

ME: omg i have so much to do today

BRAIN: best i can do is none of it so that you don't feel bad for only doing some of it

ME: that doesn't make any sense

BRAIN: don't tell me how to do my job

This delivery driver throws treats to all the dogs on his route to see if they can catch. Spoiler alert: some of them definitely cannot. Still 13/10 for all (TT: jezzyvi)

WOO! What a relief! The order pasting method worked but would have been a huge pain for you with all the sets you have.

This is so weird, but clicking "Manage Gifts" actually worked for *one* of the four sets I still have to give away! And when I copied the link and changed the order # the way you had mentioned in past, I was able to get to the other sets. Maybe that will work for you too?

Ugh. :-( They sure did a good job breaking it.

I'm in the US and having the exact same issue, if that helps any (I know it probably doesn't).

I'd like to hear the story too! That's got to be a doozy. 😁

a blue cartoon character is crying with tears falling out of his eyes Alt: A blue cartoon character in a white sweater is crying. The tears are shooting upward from her eyes in an arc, like water from a fountain.

My brain: I'm tired and I don't want to do the things. :-(

Me: If we finish this *one* thing, we can have the rest of the afternoon off.

My inbox: Yeah, I don't think so.

This is what everyone should be worrying about. Not Trump canceling elections, but Republicans taking the trips they've been playing on everyone else and doing them to white voter precincts.

This thread is a painfully perfect description of how it will go down.

This is not just cursed, its monstrous. The digital resurrection of a historian who died in January of this year, all so Grammarly can get some more clicks and engagement from students and/or scholars and/or others.

It feels so wrong on so many levels, these ghosts enslaved to AI forever

I recently acquired a little dumpster fire toy because why not. (Also pictured: Funko Pops of Steve Rogers and Peggy Carter.)

that they have kept their relationship intensely private to the point that this is how we find out is probably the best sign they might actually make it

anyway, rules are rules, here is the exact moment she fell in love

I have openings in my editing calendar for immediate work and future bookings. I work with novellas and novels, and with many genres. More info here: www.kathowardbooks.com/editing and I'm always happy to answer questions.
