It’s here, it’s back, it’s happening…again.
The Backlund House, built in the early 20th century, has been haunted since Phoebe Backlund received the keys.
The house haunts others, too, over years.
Noah Benjamin, in a not too distant future, has the technology to determine what moves through time.💙📚

Standing 8 Count has a new handle after moving to @transrights.northsky.social! If you were following this account before, you still are! I would love to connect with more #IndieBooksellers. I publish through Ingram, returnable, and bookseller discounts. It’s not about royalties, it’s sharing art.

What do other #indiepub and self-publishing authors use to convert documents to epub? I publish through Ingram, but now Amazon is not picking up my ebooks, complaining about svg’s when I don’t have any (wtf?). I use jpg’s and png’s for title art and logos, but I need a file converter that WORKS!
