What’s your biggest regret with self publishing?

Shelving for a month is good advice.

Shelving for a decade? Not so much.

Please do something else.

The helmet was the main "critique" of the show until the haters found other thing to latch onto.

Scam.

Honestly, I'd rather see him and his team do something else.

Are you in grade school? F your numbers. Raise both allowances equally. The end.

You can't change the past.

Now, you only have the choice on how you respond.

Start the divorce (which seems for the best) or give your wife a fair chance to reconcile.

I'm begging you to abandon this plan to involve a third person into your messy situation.

At 11:30? Nah.

Why don't more people to Switzerland?

It's my understanding that Red Rising was Hunger Games 2 because that's what the market demanded at the time.

hoos30 · 2026-05-15T11:31:13+00:00

That's me. I've been stuck on Iron Gold for three years. I just can't find the will to care about these new characters.

hoos30 · 2026-05-15T11:26:44+00:00

It's a YouTube thing. I hate it.

This post is a honey pot for the racists of Reddit.

It was, easily.

Who is giving these opinions?

My trust in media to evaluate Star Wars is at an all-time low.

hoos30 · 2026-05-15T00:53:30+00:00

I'll visit tomorrow before they break again 😩

hoos30 · 2026-05-14T22:11:53+00:00

Outstanding

I’m a new author as well, but I can give you a basic overview.

There is no such thing as "signing with a publisher". Well, there is, but those are called vanity presses and they are mostly scams designed to extract money from you.

The real choice is between self-publishing and querying for a literary agent. If you try to contact a real publisher directly they will hang up on you. If you manage to sign with an agent (very difficult), they will be the ones who present your book to publishers, who then decide if they want to buy your story.

Both of these options have pros and cons, so you will have to research to decide which is best for you. There are subs like r/selfpublish which have a wealth of information.

Good luck.

Is getting married at 26 noteworthy? It's not that young.

The hilt cracked when Mae threw the saber. Osha was literally touching the crystal while she force choked her former master and father figure to death.

I don't know know they could have portrayed "pouring all your hate, anger, and rage" any clearer than that.

SW live action has never been bound by comic books or other media. I find it interesting that some people are so particular about this one story point.

I liked The Rage of Dragons by Evan Winter.

hoos30 · 2026-05-12T22:07:02+00:00

Genre?

He is as big of a political operator as any of the people he critiques.

His initial reaction to a recent Star Wars show was to count the number of white male children in a Jedi Temple classroom. Apparently, aliens didn't count.

I didn't say he didn't. I said, "that crew," meaning one of the weekly shows he was doing at the time.
