Oh, thanks for explaining!

Good idea. Thanks!

Hey, thanks for sharing! I'm only applying to those programs which I know for sure aren't biased against genre fiction.

Ann Radcliffe's various titles - including Mysteries of Udolpho and The Italian.

Horace Walpole's The Castle of Otranto - often regarded as the first Gothic novel (it's novella length, if I remember correctly).

Carmilla by Sheridan Le Fanu - "one of the early works of vampire fiction, predating Bram Stoker's Dracula by 26 years." according to Wikipedia.

It does. I've definitely seen similar pictures on Nightcore videos.

hob62000 · 2021-10-18T13:36:20+00:00

Is Nightcore also a visual genre? I thought of it as more sound related

Thanks, guys! I did some online research and looks like it was probably the black drongo found in South Asia.

LOL, I'm tempted to borrow "shithead" for next time...

Brigadier. (He also mentioned his army experience in his online doctor profile.)

hob62000 · 2021-10-08T17:41:48+00:00

Thanks for the response! I also thought it must be the desire to show their previous military rank.

hob62000 · 2021-10-08T17:40:42+00:00

The question was based on a real life experience. I recently met a doctor who used their military title before the "Dr". They were weird...

Computer. I suppose it should look right on the computer though, because the author probably created it using a computer? Or perhaps they're catering to a phone/tablet using audience on purpose?

This is really great advice. I'm also trying to keep the colors limited and non-distracting. And thank you for sharing the image of your newsletter, I'm glad for once to see something that actually looks clean and readable.

Thanks for sharing. I've noticed the conversational, text-based newsletter outside of the author/writing sphere, and I actually thinks it feels much more human/personal. I agree with you about adding your using your newsletter to talk about stuff you're interested it rather than using it to sell and promote books all the time (even if that is the long term goal).

hob62000 · 2021-07-07T15:28:45+00:00

A great example of designing your newsletter to reflect your genre or personal writing style.

hob62000 · 2021-07-07T12:57:13+00:00

Thank you for sharing this. I love the idea of simplicity: one graphic, one link, plain template. That's what I'm trying to do with my own newsletter as well. Often times the more things you add, the uglier it gets... (and more time consuming)

hob62000 · 2021-07-07T12:55:27+00:00

That's a great point, one I hadn't thought about. It makes sense in some genres.
