My new fiction collection is out, but disappears forever on Christmas. Grab it now or regret it forever.
You'll also get 13 other excellent books, as part of the Wee Beasties bundle.
WeTransfer just changed their ToS to allow them to train AI on any files you transfer through them.
Don't use there service, especially for work that you don't have the right to relicense to them (e.g., commercial work that's exactly the most likely to create the huge files WeTransfer specializes in).
Want to know why I got so mad at a movie that I wrote an entire novel fixing it?
Sunday night. 9PM EDT. The weekly old movie watch party #monsterdon is watching Laserblast.
I'm canceling my usual family stuff to join in and live-toot, shot by shot, exactly why it made me so damn pissed.
There will be bile.
and you will understand how #laserblasted was born.
stoned af from my dental surgery, but supposed to promote work.

I know he's written about the challenges of selling books into the EU, especially with VAT.

Oh, we know each other.
If you're not big enough to do IOSS, then the recipient pays VAT when they receive their item.
I would love the ability to ship a crate of books to EU and have them distributed, but it's not gonna happen any time soon. I work in too-small quantities.

New blog post: #Vultr just betrayed us.
I've recommended them for years. Will be moving off immediately. #sysadmin
No, not a joke.
Just realized I've been a full time writer almost nine years now.
Weird. Stunning. Bizarre.
Still no idea how y'all let me get away with this.

Patreon has failed to pay me, as part of their latest implosion. ( https://www.theverge.com/2023/8/3/23818598/patreon-payment-blocked-processing-declined-subscription-canceled )
If you're one of my beloved Patronizers who backs me through Patreon, check to see if you've been charged. Because I haven't got it.
If you're flexible on where you back me, I built my own Patreon at https://www.tiltedwindmillpress.com/product-category/patronizer/ -- I usually do a soft sell on the whole "ditch the middleman" thing because lots of you have reasons for using Patreon, but this latest mess impels me to bring it up.
One of the things I most enjoy about the fedi:
if someone you don't know makes a magnificent, horrid, hideous joke, you can tell them that they're a bad person and should repent and that you're stealing it to share the pain, and without fail they will feel a sense of accomplishment and a job well done.
