In EXCRUCIATING DETAIL my personal experiences, and I was very clear that the fact that no one else in his life shared their stories told me everything I needed to know about him. He shut up real fast. No regrets fir sharing. They all needed to heat it. He can't say he doesn't know anyone now. 2/2

An acquaintance once doubted repentance statistics and said that unreported rapes weren't rapes/didn't happen. In front of a whole bunch of people I gave him stats and again he denied. I asked him if anyone he knew has ever been rapes or se uslly assaulted. He scoffed at me. So he git to hear 1/2

I am in a place where I am writing a lot. I'm not sure i like it while I'm doing it but I sure like the feeling of having done it. For me, I think editing is easier than that first grueling slog through just getting it into a draft.

Hi. Bookshop.org has DRM protections to prevent the thing you want to do. If you have an epub formatted copy on another reader you may have more luck sharing from that. Someone at your publisher could give you an epub version. I am not sure you can do exactly what you are asking tho.
Bookshop.org: Buy books online. Support local bookstores.
A better way to buy books online. Every purchase financially supports local independent bookstores.

He can fuck right off. I got laid off recently. 20 year career in technology. I am desperate to work. The job market is awful, brutal, and stupid. I submit ~10 resumes a day, tailored to the requirements. I am qualified for these jobs. But competing with THOUSANDS all just as qualified as me.

My mil was on Hospice for 2.5 months. She was at home and having a team made so much difference. They were compassionate and wonderful. Kicking her off after 18 days fir not dying fast enough would have been cruel to all of us in ways I can't even describe. Junior has ZERO empathy or compassion.

82k. Im as done as I can get it at this point. I fully expect to have to do rewrites if it's picked up but at this point I'll just be over-editing.

Comedic fantasy. A woman lands the high tech job of her dreams only to realize she has signed on to manage Armageddon. For Satan. Corporate America really is Hell. (Practicing my abbreviated logline!)
