Twitter has been interesting the last few days. My former editor from the now-defunct Rebel ePublishers was tweeting a few of us. Our relationship goes way back to 2009.

Writing and whatnot

Sigh.I got to work and started writing and loading scheduled Tweets for next week via the bookshop account. Then had an author come in for … Continue reading Losing my train of thought …
