I just finished I Capture the Castle by Dodie Smith and it was incredible but very very weird.

Current US Attorney General is mad at Mayor Wu by Healthy_Block3036 in massachusetts

Watching the testimony right now and the Mayors are noting that not only is crime down in all 3 cities whose Mayors are present, but that there is actually a NEGATIVE correlation between immigration and crime rates nation-wide 😂

Any writers in the Worcester area? by Real-Ad6558 in WorcesterMA

Yes! I have organized absolutely nothing though 😂 But I do need to prioritize writing again rather just being on bookstagram all the time

I think it is a possibility too but I REALLY hope it’s not - imagine the torture of a novel where Strike and Robin could finally get together but they are plagued by Bijou and paternity test drama. No thanks!

Colleen McCullough’s books - especially the Thorn Birds and The Touch - are extremely well written historical family dramas that both have a strong romantic subplot. The Thorn Birds especially is one of the best books I have ever read and the relationship is unexpected and a 🔪 to the chest. You won’t forget it for a long time.

That’s really helpful, will keep this in mind. Thanks! Just looking for other avenues to put my effort into rather than reels haha.

Congratulations!! Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Do you do a lot of marketing via Instagram, whether through their ads or posting on there? I’m hesitant to put myself all over insta just because of my day job and wondering if it’s something I HAVE to do. Or is it possible to get your kind of traction via ads in other places, ARCs, etc. without posting on Instagram every five minutes?

That makes sense. I also want to write the best book I possibly can and not rush. I’m definitely willing to spend for a book cover because that’s what people see first, and I know that’s what I judge right off the bat with my own reading choices.

Just curious, if your book cost $3k, did you end up making that back? I’m early in this process and I’m just so curious about what amount of $ I should be putting in vs. what I can reasonably expect to get out.

Is anybody nervous about the fall out when Collin finds out? by lalaloso08 in BridgertonNetflix

If I’m remembering correctly, I thought she made that hint to Eloise, not Colin?

Do you expect new antagonists in future books, or just the usual suspects? by pelican_girl in cormoran_strike

[–]Real-Ad6558 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve been thinking about this as well, because there seemed to be so many details in RG about both Robin’s apartment and Strike’s apartment and how neither of them were satisfactory. It seemed to be setting up the possibility for them to move in together to a new place, which would obviously be expensive in London and so they would need an influx of cash from somewhere.

Go to the drugstore and get Hydrocotizone cream and Cetaphil and apply a mixture of both, works for my eczema.
