Why you should use a PHYSICAL scene separator (e.g. asterisks) in your books instead of an empty space: 1) Some ereader / app somewhere may simply not show the empty space. 2) Some people read on devices with the text REALLY BIG. Your chance of the empty space being at the end of the screen is...

once again the actual "story" behind Tilly Norwood is how the company's PR firm continues to get these stories placed in ostensibly legit outlets over and over despite zero demonstration of the supposed phenomenon being written about ("AI movie star Tilly Norwood") being real
Mark Harris@markharris.bsky.social · 6d agoA better way to phrase this Variety headline would be "Publicity Seeker Who Invented A Program Continues Long Con"

Along these lines: Doubt anyone needs a reminder, but Gumroad is owned/run by profoundly shitty ppl. They booted Iron Circus from the platform years ago after an unsuccessful Smut Peddler applicant began demanding all adult material be removed from Gumroad, despite there being no rules against it.
Uncertain Song@uncertainsong.bsky.social · 4w agoSeeing that Gumroad is hiring "creators-in-residence" after the platform has become fully AI-automated... yeah, okay. 🙄
These folks ARE the on-the-ground community aid we all say we want to support. If you have $5, that'd be lovely. If you don't, boosts help. Thank you.
Sanctuary Supply Depot@supplydepotmpls.bsky.social · 7d agoPlease help. People's needs always increase this time of year but this year is even greater than usual, and when we run out of tents people are sleeping unsheltered. Finances are tight for everyone but how far are any of us from homelessness?

Just an occasional reminder especially on Bi Visibility Day that my novel OKPsyche is ALSO incredibly bi-focused along with being very trans-femme focused bookshop.org/p/books/okps...

Webtoons is a brand name. People have been calling the medium "webcomics" for about thirty or so years now. I think this distinction is important.

Now that EA's been acquired by the Saudi PIF, sources tell Kotaku company execs are swearing its new "partners" won't make creative decisions, but queer fans who found belonging in Dragon Age, Apex Legends, and The Sims are mourning that their favorite games have gone somewhere they can't follow.
