It's good to see writers using Smashwords.

Back in the day, it was the place to #selfpublish.

I remember using SIGIL, KindleGen, and writing forums filled with rumors that if you used Calibre to turn your book into an EPUB, Amazon would reject it.

It was the wild west days of self-publishing.

“Talyn!!” cried Sera over the comms. “Are you alright?” “I am fine,” she lied. “I was merely grazed.” And again, enemy voices raised to interfere. “All hands, Cherub has compromised our communications,” reported Hawking calmly. “As anticipated, she is an artificial with sight of digital systems. Commence anti-artificial countermeasures. O-squad, switch to line-of-sight laser comms. Boost data scramblers to maximum output. And Cherub…?” Talyn, swooping around in pursuit of the mothership, pricked her ears at Hawking’s gravelly voice, aimed right at her. “You are not as smart as you think you are,” said the enemy captain. “Make peace with that before you die.”

“Is it true what he said?” Elm asked. “About you setting a crewmate to kick his ass?” “I didn’t order it,” he replied quietly. “I wasn’t in charge at the time. And Therese was… She had her own reasons for lashing out. Luc’s Disciples killed a lot of good people in the Near Traverse. I should have seen what she was going to do, but I was too focussed on letting the past stay in the past.” “That explains his limp,” sniffed the bounty hunter. “And for the record, the past doesn’t stay in the past. Not ever.” “Oh yeah?” he probed. “Don’t ‘oh yeah’ me, I’m not gonna talk about it.” “R-Right,” he chuckled. “Sorry.”

“I’d know that alien scum anywhere! It’s been quite a while, hasn’t it? Albright?” Marcus pointedly looked away. He wasn’t acting, Elm could tell. His arms were shaking. “Hello? Albright? From the Accord galaxy?” Luc continued, and his four crewmen chuckled with shared mirth. They all had it in for him, clearly. “It’s me! Your dear friend Luc! You remember…” And then his voice darkened into fiendish spite, and he gritted his teeth. “You tried to fucking kill me.”

The Theonova shuddered as it descended into the gravity of Arkay’s huge, empty ship, and Marcus flinched. The collar around his neck pinched his skin under the vibrations, and he rose a hand to touch at the pain. Then, scowling to himself in admonishment, he pushed up and rose to his feet. He bent down to reclaim his navy uniform jacket and tugged on his dark boots. If he was going to die today, let it be as Marcus Albright of the Accord. He could decide what that meant later, if it even mattered. Then he paused briefly to check his hair with the palms of his hands, nodded to himself, and then stepped out the door.

“I don’t know how I can convince you that I’m not,” he said. “I’m really trying. I haven’t used my abilities for anything nefarious, and you know I suck at guns and things!” “Like I said,” sneered the bounty hunter, “you don’t even know why. What do you think will be the nail in the coffin for my little team, eh? What’s gonna be the reason we end our gig aboard the Theonova? You think your techno-magic bullshit scares me? Talyn’s coming on in leaps and bounds, and she’ll run rings around your little tricks before too long. Your Mythmaker ship and your little friends from the Accord? Sera’s been here less time than any of your lot and she already knows the Forge like she was born here! And anything else you deign to threaten my team with, I can handle. Guns, knives, a tight fist. Doesn’t matter to me. I can end you any time I want. Violence, intel, money and technology will not be the end of the Theonova, Marcus. Only one thing will.” She looked down into her lap. Elm uncrossed her legs and planted her boots on the floor. Marcus fancied his vision was starting to blur, since he only saw her leg at the start and end of its movement. Elm sniffed loudly, and it almost melded indistinguishably with the roar of the music. “Love, Marcus. Love will end us.”

It's possible to over consume anything that you buy, including books...it's not possible to over consume *reading* #books.

#Hoopla is a digital book lending service available with many library cards, and #selfpublish authors on the platform get a royalty with every read. #Booksky #Library
Self-Published books on Hoopla: Vanilla (with Sprinkles), Dungeons and Dayjobs, Love in the Liner Notes, The White Ribband, Acting up, Unchanin my Heart Vanilla (with sprinkles) by Rosemary Victus Kalie left her entire life behind after a viral video blew up her life. Sam is that guy who is definitely not over his ex (and it shows). They meet by chance at a NYE party where Kalie’s attempt to take Sam home with her goes horribly wrong and they end up becoming friends instead. Sam desperately tries to hide his growing feelings as Kalie hides her past... which becomes all the more complicated once they start sleeping together. Libraries: Hoopla, Libby/Overdrive, and Kobo+ Genre: Romance, cozy Dungeons and Dayjobs by Rob Northrup Have you ever delivered meals to shut-in trolls or warlocks? Ever made one of those wagers with a deity where you just know a dozen mortals will end up insane or beheaded, daughters marrying fathers, cousins stabbing grandmothers, and almost always, somebody has to lose an eye? What if you could bend a paperclip into an intricate, spring-loaded pattern that would allow it to walk across your desk, write reports for you, brew coffee and do your entire job? Escape from your dayjob into this collection of 2d6 short stories, 5 recipes and a novella. Libraries: Hoopla Genre: Fantasy, Sci-fi, Humor Love in the Liner Notes by Katta Kis Two ex-boy band heartthrobs. One witchy sex educator. The love triangle no one expected. Sex educator and sigil witch Cazzi Muldoon pined for her best friend, former boy band idol, Patrick Jones for an embarrassingly long time. He understood her, he was there for her on the worst night of her life. Then she kissed him, ruining everything. Years later, they’re tentatively rebuilding their relationship—until his old band mate showed up. Rohan Kapoor was all set to record his solo album with his best friend Patrick producing. It might be his last chance at a comeback, but he’s ready. He just wasn’t planning to break up with his unpredictable girlfriend right before recording or cause a rift between Cazzi and Patrick, disrupting the whole process. In the messy fallout, Cazzi and Rohan hold it together with songwriting sessions, late night talks, and his stress baking. She’s in love with Patrick. Rohan’s ex situation is a disaster and he’s leaving soon anyway. They can’t be more than friends, so why can’t they stop thinking about each other? Libraries: Hoopla, Libby/Overdrive (requestable), The Queer Liberation Library (Hoopla subset), Kobo Plus Genre: Romance

I helped an #indieauthor #selfpublish her book last month, and since then, she’s forwarded me several text messages, emails, and voicemails from people with “opportunities" for her and her book.

They’re all scams. Stay safe out there!

“I’m not you,” Marcus spat. “I can control myself.” He coughed as his deep, righteous breaths brought smoke into his throat and stung his insides, and Elm chuckled mockingly. “Yeah, and you’re so fucking healthy because of it. Have you ever stopped to think that your body makes you angry for a reason?” “An old reason, from an old form of humanity. I’m beyond that, now. I don’t need anger.” “Yeah, you do.” Elm leaned forward, and her eyes glowed like headlights through the haze. “You need it. I need it. All living things need rage. It’s the most honest of all emotions. You cannot lie when you’re angry, not really. The truth slips out. And I only really know myself when I see how I act, think on what I want, when something’s really pissed me off. It’s natural. You should stop denying it.”

We've bounced off 65% a couple times as people adjust their pledges. Can you get us fully past the 2/3 mark?

It's a rough time to be a creative (I had a big ol' private Facebook post about it) but I am so humbled and honored by the support for my book! #spacepirates #selfpublish
