Ebooks killed mass market.
Did they? Or did publishers realize if they got rid of them peoples choices would be 25 dollars for a paperback or 14 dollars for a *license* to a digital book.

Mass markets were only phased out so that the publisher could jack up all prices for all books. Why charge 8 dollars for a book that costs us two dollars to print when we could charge $14 dollars for a digital book that costs nothing. I will die on this hill forever.

Literally and metaphorically

Insurance finally made a decision. They estimated 15k worth of damage and repairs need to be done. My claim only covers up to 10. So they pay that out, wipe their hands of it and I'm left to figure everything else out myself.

If insurance doesn't cover it, I honestly don't even want to know what it's going to cost. We need people to come out and clean up and deal with the water damage and everything too. So let's hope that insurance covers it...

If you want to, and are capable of donating, it would mean a lot. It's been a rough two years between burst pipes and car problems and everything else.

The sewer water was 6 inches deep, everything I had down there is ruined, and we had to call an emergency plumber to clear it.

I hate to do this because I know other people need more than I do but I don't know what else to do at this point. My sewage pipe backed up this weekend and flooded my basement. Even if insurance covers it I have to come up with $1000 for a deductible.

I don't care how popular your book is, $37 for an ebook is INSANE.

I read Tyra Bank's INSANE YA BOOK so you don't have to YouTube video by Squigglyelf

I FINALLY FINISHED.

youtu.be/CZNR6SGz40Q

I have been working through this for WEEKS. This book has been wild.. I cannot even put it into words. Hunger Games meets Harry Potter meets Next Top Model meets The Thing. I finished it 2 weeks ago and I'm still confused.

We're almost at 1000 subs on youtube!!

Keep your eyes on it because I have a HUGE "i read this so you dont have to" style video about Tyra Bank's Modelland which is... the most unexplainable experience I've had reading a book.

Cozy ASMR: Reading Jane Austen’s Persuasion | Chapter One YouTube video by Squigglyelf

I've been asked to read or do asmr streams, but I get too shy about doing them in front of an audience
So I thought making videos separately might be easier, and I started with one of my favorite pieces of classic lit. Persuasion, by Jane Austen.
