If you ever publish a book in the old-fashioned dead-tree form, I will buy a copy.

From my perspective, as someone who does aspire to be a published author one day, I would personally like to make use of any medium available to me if it means more people will read my work.That said: Yes, there is absolutely a special appeal to an …

After that job, there was a while when I couldn't bear the printed page. I know it sounds overly dramatic, but the feelings of guilt and shame were real, and such turns pleasure into guilty pleasure and guilty pleasure into just guilt. Yes, the fee…

I know you probably already know this, but audiobooks are actually very important as an accessibility tool. If an author wants their work to be enjoyed by blind people or other people who can’t read text, making an audiobook available is the most ef…

In fact, I have judged between books before, in my old job at the warehouse where I killed books by the crateload, sparing only those few which the rules said ought to be spared. I've sent-to-be-recycled more books than I've ever read, more than I …
-
To make things even worse, paper recycling exists, meaning that my books might be abominations strewn together from other books like Frankenstein's Monster (perhaps I could prevent this during my lifetime, but there's no way I could prevent it centu…

Before anyone brings up the readers or whatever message, meaning, story, or anything else I might want to express, relate, or portray in my work, remember that the reason I said "if I were an author" instead of "if I was an author" is because I don'…

You know what I hate? I hate the fact that books automatically enter the public domain some amount of time after the author dies. If I were an author, the only reason I'd be writing books (other than for the money) is to support my publisher. If m…

So, N-ever for some value of N?

Wait, what? But I was planning to necro threads... the WOKE MORALISTS who run this website wont stand for this sort of thing, im afraid. Since when was this place run by moralists of any sort?

bring back Last Post Wins Oooh, I loved that game, and remember how the TvTropes mods would make the last post and then lock the thread so none of us could win; and I remember how someone came up with "second-to-last post wins", only for glenn to d…

I remember that day, twenty-two years ago.

You are on the fastest road TO DESTRUCTION.

UPDATE: Alice got in trouble for being late for school and now has to write TWO HUNGRED AND PIFTY lines.

America is in Africa which is part of Australia, which is on Jupiter, which is in Antarctica. But Antarctica is on the opposite side of the world from Kansas, which is in Dubai, which is part of Bangkok, which is in the eastern part of Naples. Tok…

Fascinating.

I remember when Google’s search engine let you specify a time range for the results, when it also let you use quotation marks to get exact results, and when more than half of the content on the internet wasn’t made by bots and more than half of inte…

I remember when there wasn’t a single corporation responsible for more than half of the print-book sales in the world. I remember when the post office was better-funded and there were still space shuttles. I remember e-mail interfaces that were ma…

I don’t have unrealistically-idealistic expectations of reality, I just want the things to be like they were when I was a kid. I don’t have unrealistically-pessimistic expectations of reality, I just think they’ll keep going in the direction they’v…

Graphite lives!

Wait a minute, I don't know if this is one of the popular things I like or one of the popular things I dislike! I do tend to like popular things, though.

But no, let's digitize EVERYTHING, especially services, for ~accessibility~, because this won't put barriers between the elderly and the world and this won't be a problem for those in poverty or with limited ability to use such technology Update: W…

1: Realize that e-mail application isn't showing all my e-mails (this is important because I need to be aware of e-mails I get from Vocational Rehabilitation), 2: Download G-mail application, use password to do so, 3: Link G-Mail application to G-ma…

I like the green coming through the cracks in the ground. I feel like this is one of those buildings that really shows off the appeal of red brick and grey shingles, and I'm guessing that the third picture reveals where four windows used to be befor…
