Hey there #bookstodon folks. Would love help finding my next #audiobook adventure. I just finished the latest book in "Dungeon Crawler Carl" and, while amazingly fun, it reminded me that I try to only read series that have endings. I hate waiting for the next book!
So what are…
I was gonna do some work today, but I had to finish my book.

Dear @… ,
I’ve just finished your latest #book “Moral Ambition” with that intimidating back cover text as my first one this year. I found the table of contents populistically appalling and the actual content really
My wife loves Bookgoblin by Elisabeth Wheatley, and she had an early black friday sale starting today.
But the author has a geoblock on her store which excludes Swiss IPs (and VPNs and Proxies). I couldn't let that stop me. And it didn't.
FOR BOOKHALLA!

Really excited to see that my #book on the #MsMarvel is on sale for $26, for the hardcover and softcover each.

farewell to my one true book format. #books
This a great book! Teri's a great author! This is a great price!
If someone tries to charge you more for it, don't go there.

Copyright / trademark question:
Why is it that an author can refer to a trademarked product in a book at their whim, but when that book gets adapted into a film or television show the product cannot be included without approval of the trademark owner?
Tagging #bookstodon because that might catch the attention of a writer or editor who knows the answer.
Just finished The Way of Kings.
while the writing was good and the characters were good it's such a poorly plotted book that it becomes unenjoyable.
Very little happens over 800 pages and while I love character development it's no excuse for how slow this moves. I would have enjoyed this at 500 pages. At 1000 I don't even want to read more.

This is a really really nice interview with Canadian Children's Book author Robert Munsch. It's his "last hurrah”. He's living with dementia and parkinson’s.
He's going to be leaving (MAID) at some point (not soon) but there are 50 more books that will be released after he has passed.
He just seems like a wonderful guy…

Wrote a chapter for the first time in a while. Work on the next book is slow, but I'm glad I took the time. Whatever you do that fulfills you, I hope everyone reading this is finding a little time for joy in between the chaos. #amwriting #bookstodon
This book is so fun, and I’m only a little bit into it: #bookstodon

Cool personal announcement: I’m now working with Hachette Book Group, 3rd largest publisher in the world! 📚😍
I’m helping with their email #marketing on their executive marketing strategy team for the next 1.5 months. Got many book lists to curate!
This is a dream come true in many ways, reading is my longest-standing and most consistent hobby. I don’t know who I would be if I wasn’t constantly surrounded by books - definitely not the Mariya before you today.
As a reader, as a writer - getting to see publishing from the inside and help promote products that I fundamentally believe do good in the world is a relief and a blessing. I’m so honored and lucky.
(Don’t worry, my agency is not going anywhere and we are still very much working with other clients!)
