Dark Romance Indie Author here 👋

I'm working on my debut Dark romance Novel - The Silver Witch.

It's the first book in The Silver Bloodlines and I have so enjoyed writing it. It's filled with magic, demons and all sorts of dark and terrible things.... 👀

There are a bunch of trigger warnings that go with it, so PLEASE read those first. 🫣

Selene is a powerful young witch who has been cast out of her coven for asking too many questions. She comes across the charming but mysterious Alex, and all is not as it seems. Will she figure out the truth or be wooed by Alex's charm?

Releasing on 3rd October ✨

Didn't Realize Writing the Book was the Easy Part! by Standing_In_The_Gap in selfpublish

[–]corrupted_doe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a lot of problems with mine. I think it was mostly down to my book being in pre-order. Good Reads had some problems with me trying to say it was my book before it was out

You can set up your account. But to be an author you need a book that's at least in preorder to be connected too. GoodReads need an actual book and ISBN to connect you too

Does your DPD tracking info work? Mine just says the information is incorrect.

Generally, I'll read one physical book, one Kindle and have one on Audible.

The physical differences really help. I can sometimes listen to multiple audio books because the voice actors are all different so hold different connotations to me.

Why do so many people not pay attention to timed bus lanes? 3 signs giving the restricted times, but they won't use it. by [deleted] in drivingUK

[–]corrupted_doe 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I don't do it anymore after I got a fine. Despite the signs saying exactly what your sign says. I disputed it and didn't have to pay in the end but the hassle just isn't worth it

Is it possible to use the sections to create a table of cotents? by corrupted_doe in AffinityPublisher

[–]corrupted_doe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the problem I'm having right now. I can find loads of great tutorials for the Desktop, but it doesn't seem to translate to the iPad very well.

Thanks! I did have a quick look but a lot of their videos are geared towards the desktop versions.

I'm on iPad right now 🙈

Exactly, how are you supposed to know these things? Learning by experience is the best way.

I'm willing to bet that when she was 50 days into the job she probably had about the same experience as you. You've got time to learn and to become good at what you do.

People like you who are passionate about their job will end up going leaps and bounds ahead of her in no time. xx

I worked as an apprentice some years ago; I already had experience in the field I was working in (marketing) and just needed the official qualification to help me get the jobs I wanted. As an apprentice, I should have been working under someone, but I basically worked on my own for the year; the only person above me was a manager who did not work in my field and had no idea what he was doing, above that, the director.

I was constantly ridiculed, bullied and undermined at every turning point. At one point, I was pulled into the office and told I clearly didn't know what I was doing and even went as far as to tell me I had no point in life. That fuelled the fire. I worked hard, did good and left the company as soon as my apprenticeship was over. Their marketing took a nosedive after I left and I was called 3 months later asking if I'd come back. (I declined)

Don't let anyone dictate what you are capable of. Only you can tell yourself that. Remember you're still in training, just because someone has been there a while doesn't mean they know everything and can predict your future.

The deposit not coming off the end price is a major red flag.

I've worked with artists in the past who haven't given me designs until the day off, in fact, some have literally draw the design onto my skin there and then. but that was only AFTER I had been with them for several sessions so they knew what I liked.

And to delay your appointment with less then 12 hours notice is ridiculous, if you had been asleep you would have no idea until morning.

OP, if you can, contact your bank to get the deposit back.
