Yeah, I think the key difference for me is that I seek them out actually hoping to give them a bump even if I don't net any extra backers. It's the rising tide mentality.
I'm also trying to connect on Discord or already know what they're about from socials. The cold connections are harder.
I love nearly all of these, but differ severely here. I intentionally seek out other creators to cross-promote with. Sometimes they're larger, but often they're newer creators needing a little bump. Decent vetting doesn't take that long.
One way or the other, good networking can't be frowned upon.
2. Stretch goals are a trap. You're either killing your margins once you're successful, or you're straight up lying to your backers about your real plans. You're also really likely to overextend yourself. Keep it simple.
I do this for colleagues' benefit more than my own. Stop sending me last-minute changes when you already had plenty of opportunity.
Hey.
Tell people when they do good job.
When you like the stuff they make.
When you like the characters they’ve created.
The stories they’ve told.
Nobody hears it as often as you think bc everyone thinks everyone hears it all the time.
Trust. They don’t.
Tell. Them.
Got it in one.
Honestly, comparisons between Mr. Darcy and Emma Frost are fairly easy to make. We just give him a pass because he's a man, while Emma has to work for redemption.
Is it a sequel to Pride and Prejudice
Working on a novel in which the main character has just articulated that he doesn't think optic blasts are the proper way to term Cyclops' power and that it's much more akin to Superman's heat vision. And I blame all of this on @gailsimone.bsky.social

One thing that being online has taught me is that inside baseball ALWAYS looks the same.
Someone says something terrible? You get the same mix of pissed-off and pissed-off-that-YOU’RE-pissed-off, whether it’s national news or movement rules for Prussian infantry.
a response to the @rascal.news article on yazeba's bed & breakfast, clarifying some misunderstandings and (hopefully) providing a clearer explanation of what happened

The original article smelled fishy when it came out. I'm glad to have heard a closer approximation to the full story. All the best.
8 images of Congressional leaders at press conferences surrounded by signboards. Central text reads: Investigate Big Sign.
When is Congress going to step into the next century? I hear overhead projectors are a thing now. Maybe Big Sign has something on them.
Looking for a literary agent and/or publisher for non-fiction in the US. Any suggestions or recommendations are greatly appreciated.
Any solicitations from pay-first or self-publishing companies will be a quick block.
I don't plug it nearly as often as I should, but I run a small Discord of nerds. We do movie nights and chat about TTRPGs and videogames. We'd love to have you.
Time for the final push then!!! 🤩
Thank you SO much to everyone who has supported the bundle so far - tonight is your last chance to grab this absolute banger of a deal and help out a wonderful family at the same time 💖✨

Bluesky was built on the foundation that you don't give perpetrators a voice. On any issue or any platform.
So why is it that I'm suddenly seeing QRP of an AI-slop video series? Talk about how bad it is, I guess. But nobody needs to see it spread.
My feed is generative-art free. Keep it that way.
We're starting on a third one in the series now!
Demand prosecution, not salacious gossip.
Recognize that your anger about the Epstein Files is less about the inability to read them and more about ignoring abuse.
We're only still sitting here demanding their release because our country's justice system rewards and protects the wealthy and elite.
Selective justice is injustice.
Huge thanks to @dramaticdragons.com for this great review!

“At a certain age, about 86, 87, he started getting, what do they call it?” Trump asked, pointing to his forehead and looking toward White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt. “Alzheimer’s,” Leavitt replied. “Like an Alzheimer’s thing. Well, I don’t have it,” Trump added.

I like to think that I ruin Bluesky like I ruin all social media platforms.
(I realize by the time I shared it, it's likely no longer DotD, but you should still consider picking it up.)
