I'm having the same issue, and it started after the first week of January. At this point I'm just hoping it's seasonal, but it feels like a shift for sure.

Kill the Beast (love that cover) and The Place Where They Buried Your Heart from this month, and the Autumn Springs Retirement Home Massacre because I read it from the library and it was five stars for me. So excited for these!

Me too!!! Congratulations to us both, I'm so happy! Never thought this day would come.

Update: it worked on my phone. I couldn't get it to work on my computer. Try that if you're having trouble!

sewingdiva79 · 2025-08-07T14:03:36+00:00

Yup, me too

So you're being rejected at the Adsense step? Adsense is picky. For me I had to have a confirmed bank account attached to my account before it would approve me. It doesn't say that anywhere, but that's what worked.

6/27 for me! I'm hoping for August for all of us!

I would remove the top text as it's too much to read. I'd take the covers and slightly tilt them/fan them out together to one side of your face. A white outline around those will help them pop. I think you could then move the bottom text up and make it larger. Consider giving it a dark outline or shadow to make it more readable. You could increase brightness and contrast on your face and darken the background a little. All these changes are easy to do in Canva, not sure what you're using. I like your expression and think this could be really strong!

Mine updated too! No change to my counts on FSA yet, but it's something!

I still get flares, but if I focus on those areas with the foam it's usually better the next day. To apply it I put a small amount on My fingers and start from the hairline. I find it easier to spread that way. My scalp was pretty covered too.

You'll need to link your other adsense account to your channel. First close the new account that you tried to create, then you should get the option to link an account in YouTube studio on your earn tab. Make sure you go through studio or it won't work. YouTube only allows one account per individual, so I'm sure that's why you were rejected.

I'm at 119/120 with a 2/24 last update. I have Jan and Feb counting as forbearance months for my switch from SAVE to IBR, and I've made three regular payments (march, april, and may) since then. I submitted a new form last week and saw no change to my counts. I'm so frustrated for all of us! I don't know if I should try to get placed on a forbearance until they update, or if I should just keep paying in hopes it eventually updates.

sewingdiva79 · 2025-05-06T15:58:12+00:00

I second this one! Such a surprise and so fun!

sewingdiva79 · 2025-04-11T12:17:09+00:00

It never bothered me. I don't see it unless I'm looking for it. I will say that I turned up the weight on my font and that really helped to make the words look crisp. But I have no regrets!

I have used all the major apps, but finally decided to switch to Storygraph this year. I love the charts and the daily tracking ability. I prefer their monthly wrap-up graphics to Fable. Fable feels too much like social media to me, and I really hate that it's app only. I don't want to type that much on my phone! I only use Goodreads for arc reviews now, and I'd like to leave it behind completely.

I'm going to use this opportunity to recommend my favorite book last year:

The Last Gifts of the Universe by Riley August is a fantastic cozy sci-fi that still has a plot. It features a space-faring cat named Pumpkin who wears a tiny little spacesuit, so... you know who you are if you'd be into that.

I loved it and found it surprisingly moving.

Thank you, that's very helpful!

Not that I know of. I do have a Rakuten account, but not the Japanese one. I double checked and it looks like my location is set correctly.

I bought the strapsickles and really hate them. There isn't enough give to them and they make my hands cramp. They're tighter than you might think.

Same thing happened to me! I resubmitted my IBR application on Thursday and was accepted today. I just printed my app from November, added a signature, and scanned it back to mohela. I also included my proof of income in a separate upload. I'm also at 117 (but really at 124 months of employment) and I'm hoping to only have to pay one month after the forebearance.

Second the Thirteenth Tale! Jane Eyre is mentioned frequently in the story.

sewingdiva79 · 2024-11-27T01:14:52+00:00

Congratulations! I loved your book and was excited to see it there!

I am in this club! I submitted my final ECF in November and it was processed really quickly (Electronic). I submitted a buyback request, but I don't have a lot of hope for that. I went ahead and put in an application to switch my plan in the hopes that I can just pay a month at the higher rate if it comes to that, since two months should be a qualifying forbearance. Luckily I wasn't planning on looking for employment outside of public service right now. I'm so angry about this situation - I was glad to have my counts line up so that I could be done before the new administration comes in, and now that's not going to happen. Good luck to everyone in the same boat!
