I'm about $40 from THE NOVA INCIDENT earning out its advance, so if people could buy about 50 copies of the ebook—and nobody returns any more paperbacks—I can probably hit that in my next royalty period. (If you're curious, this book came out the week my kid was born. 😅) dmoren.com/writing/gala...

It's also the secret behind a lof of male wriers writing "productivity" books.

Here in Maine too

I've been sick this week so I keep forgetting to boost this: Platform Decay, the next Murderbot book, is part of the Preorder 25% off sale at Barnes and Noble: www.barnesandnoble.com/w/platform-d... So is the trade paperback of Queen Demon

Also on Kobo and Apple

Yeah, finish. I got time to read after years of not. I've got slots with your name on hem.

Musk is as usual posting ahistoric bullshit.

I'm so sorry Greg.

During WWII a German vessel fired upon sailors floating in the sea after the Greek vessel Peleus was sunk. The officers were tried and convicted in the Peleus War Crimes trial.

Remember when Amazon held a sale during Independent Bookstore Day in an effort to undercut indie bookstores?

We didn’t forget. Support local bookstores during Small Business Saturday and beyond.
