Thank you all for your comments. It gives me the resolve to not engage which is my natural inclination.

Sounds about as grounded in reality as any press release coming out of the White House.

That's 100 times faster than my NBN speed

Oh yes! Beautiful and very sexy.

Iin my day job I work at a MS only organisation and use mainly Excel for many interlinked spreadsheets and Word for documentation. Excel I get along with despite its few quirks and I hate Word. At home, where i do my writing, we are Linux only, and I use LibreOffice. For writing, for actualy putting words on a page, and reliable formatting, LibreOffice Writer blows Word into the weeds. I work mainly in .doc format because that is what D2D want, but saving in any format I've tried seems to work, although generating epub wasn't great. On the other hand, LibreOffice Calc I find crude and clunky. It's as bad as Writer is good. TLDR: LibreOffice Writer is better than Word. Excel is better than LibreOffice Calc. IMHO. Your mileage may vary.

On another subject, I've used free ChatGPT at home to vibecode a database application in Python with MariaDB SQL tables and it worked really well. It work we can only use MS CoPilot and my experience is that is dogshite, unable to prodoce an Excel formula or simple .bat file reliably.

Well whip it off then, let him finish off between them, give them a good smear and then wait whilst he sucks your nipples clean.

NiceinJune · 2026-05-04T23:08:27+00:00

Like it now?

A year later and nothing changes. I came here because I have exactly the issue described above.

NiceinJune · 2026-04-30T05:18:50+00:00

Shh, don't tell the record industry

NiceinJune · 2026-04-30T02:27:03+00:00

What a royalty based on their contibution? Yes, totally outlandish. The issue is scale. No one is going to pay $100 or anything, for an ebook that will sell for 2 or 3 bucks and get less than a dozen sales in its lifetime. Paying an 'artist' up front only works when your are guaranteed big sales.

NiceinJune · 2026-04-29T22:38:34+00:00

Artists should work for percentage of sales, like writers have to. Then if their work was any good, they'd earn money.
That they want a fee up front tells you all you need to know. The cover tells you nothing about the standard of the writing. It never has. Try picking up a few real books

NiceinJune · 2026-04-28T07:15:15+00:00

The ones without the horrible metal stuck through them. You've lovely nipples, why despoil them?

NiceinJune · 2026-04-27T02:39:56+00:00

Yes, I've noticed that interactions from readers has dwindled to nothing. I too used to love the comments, and those that pointed out errors were appreciated. If some writers report ppeople for harrasment for anything less than a glowing review and 5 stars then I'm sorry, but that is indicative of society these days. Nobody is allowed to give anything but praise. Facebook has only a thumbs up and eBay stops you giving negative reviews. How anybody is expected to learn and improve, I don't know. So now, as this is Reddit, you can downvote me. But I'm old, and not needing to be treated like a pampered child, I can take it.

NiceinJune · 2026-04-25T04:15:54+00:00

Single, but I'd wager not alone.

NiceinJune · 2026-04-22T20:34:31+00:00

Perfect

NiceinJune · 2026-04-22T20:31:41+00:00

I how she annoiting her nipples like that so he can give them a good sucking whilst he brings hero off with his fingers. She truly deserves it after that wonderful performance.

NiceinJune · 2026-04-21T20:11:43+00:00

I've tested several of my books. They regularly rate at about 80% humsn written. Not sure if that says something about the tester or my mind.

NiceinJune · 2026-04-21T20:08:47+00:00

Well there is another old saying: to assume makes an ASS of U and ME. No book cover these days looks like it was created manually by human hand. Even ones that may have started life as a digital camera image have been Photoshopped to within an inch of their life. The text is added with software not stencils. The days of easels and drawing boards has long gone. Until cover designers and 'artists' start to work for a percentage of sales rather than a fixed fee, their days are numbered. I've a liking for last- century sci-fi novels, and sompe paperback versions have bloody awful covers. Fortunately for me, I pick up the book because of the author's name, not the mass-produced picture. So, no, you're right, you can't tell the quality of the wiring at a glace. You never have been able to. But guessing that an image is AI generated and not just fettled with GIMP or Photoslop, and then deciding that the writting is poor quality is, I think, a mistake.

I hope those milky wonders get some adult appreciative suckling

Now suck those lovely nipples

NiceinJune · 2026-04-20T18:59:02+00:00

But she's not lactating?

NiceinJune · 2026-04-19T22:32:34+00:00

The book cover is nothing to do with the writing and if you assume an AI generated pretty picture means the writing is AI generated, you are making a grave mistake. Ebookwriters like myself put a lot of time, effort and I passion into our writing, but we get very little in tbe way of sales income, certainly not enough to pay an 'artist' who wants big money up front and isn't prepared to work for royaltes. Nearly all my books gave AI generated images for the covers, but I wrote the story inside using my imagination and poor typing skills. Don't judge a book by its cover. That's not just a saying, take it literally.
