Writer's Workshop [Public] / Re: Is anybody dictating the first draft of their novels?
« Last post by The Bass Bagwhan on Today at 10:20:02 AM »
Purely to alleviate RSI and tendinitis i've been considering this for my freelance technical writing, but it's most editing and improving press releases and i've always imagined that all those technical terms, plus the act of placing the cursor inside phrases and words, isn't a workflow that dictation will support.
Can anyone enlighten me?

TV/Movie Talk [Public] / Re: What movie did you recently watch?

I read the book before watching the movie, and I laughed out loud at the ending.

The ending is highly improbable, at the very least.

News reporting suggests that some of the cardinals watched Conclave before they were sequestered. If the reporting is to be believed, they generally found it interesting.

I'm always somewhat behind, but I recently watched 'Conclave', which seemed timely because of the recent change of Popes. I found the ending a little unbelievable, but it was still an interesting film.

I was recently featured in my local newspaper: https://thedanielislandnews.com/news/why-more-people-are-retiring-early-and-loving-it  The reporter had asked about retiring and I'd made a tongue-in-cheek response about stay-at-home moms never retiring. We had an interview and she asked for several pictures and I'm happy she chose one where I showcase my books. It's fun to be a celebrity for 5 min and I hope some people are curious enough to read my books (they're at the library so they don't even have to buy a copy).

That's lovely :Tup2:.
I hope it brings in some sales. I always tell my local newspaper about any new books I've written as they are often looking for material. :)

From August 11-31, I'm running a fantasy new release promo book fair. Do you have a new release that was released in 2025? Then come aboard and advertise with me!

This is for any romance or fantasy/sci-fi. New authors are welcome. Preorders are encouraged. Boxed sets are fine.

Check it out here on Bookfunnel:
