this is not an ad for either myself or Blurb, but I did just have the second edition of my #selfpublished book of #poetry delivered.

it's the same product I bought last year, for exactly the same price. but the interior headings were printed in a beautiful light blue and the pages are noticeably thicker.

setting up the online marketplace was also super easy.

@nlowell @bookstadon an impressive list and generous of you to share, thank you 🙏🏽 I’m not familiar with much on there so I’ll look forward to diving in. What a lovely, supportive self-publishing / indie-publishing community Mastodon has 💙💙 #SelfPublished #indiepublisher

@FranklyWrites sci-fi space opera + weaponised emotions = sign me up. Thanks for the link. And yes I think maybe it’s time those of us who are our own publishers also reclaim the work ‘self-promotion’. It means we work extra hard, that’s all. #SelfPublished #selfpublishing

@FranklyWrites @szattwellauthor thanks for the recommendation! I’ve decided to start with Aestus: book 1 the city. Then I’m going to check out your books. Good luck with book #2 @bookstodon #scifi #SelfPublished #indiepublisher

For 2023 I want to expand my reading of self-published / indie-published authors. I’m specifically looking for sci-if / speculative fiction / fantasy / poetry. Ideally (but not solely) by women-identifying authors / non-binary folk / authors outside of the cis-straight-white-male paradigm. This is not to be exclusive - I’m simply a fan of positive discrimination in the publishing world. Please give this a boost - I’ll share all recommendations.

Any #gamelit #scifi #fantasy #book fans out there? I thought I might start a thread to garner recommendations for #new #series and #books by #newauthor(s) in these genres.

There's a lot of really bad #selfpublished work out there, but there's some good stuff too.

Here's a couple writers I've enjoyed, to get started. 🧵
