Replying to @goodreads
The relationship between male readers & female authors is really not talked about enough. I wrote some thoughts on it last year after reading that “For the top 10 bestselling female authors, only 19% of their readers are men and 81% women.” frontmatterblog.com/2021/08/… – at Budapest, Hungary

Um, are there actually any real people still using HARO? I'm going through responses to a request I sent out last week, and most of them are from bots/fake personas set up to promote websites!

Had such a great time talking with @leahclapper about her goals with @NILisland and what’s she’s learned about NIL since legislation first passed. Be sure to check out @NILisland, it’s a goldmine of resources!

My favorite part about writing pieces for @Explorer_Chick is that I have a brand new bucket list of places to visit 🛫 I never would have thought to put Mount Elgon on my list before, but now I'll definitely be planning a trip to Uganda in the future! explorerchick.com/journal/ex…

When giving feedback, replace the "but" with "and here's how" to create momentum. Here's an example: "The structure for this article is very good *and here's how* we can improve it: X, Y, Z." vs "The structure for this article is very good *but* it needs some more work."

colleen hoover is genuinely doing so much damage to the romance genre and the people who read her books. all of her books romanticize abuse and young people are reading this thinking its okay and WANTING it to happen to them.

If you want to make a living as a writer, you have to do more than write. I really appreciate how @dianagetssocial explains how writers can present themselves as pros. dianabriceno.com/what-makes-…
