I'm finishing up some academic editing this week for some professors and scientists. Real question from my 15-year-old son: "If they're so smart, why do they need your help?" 😂
Let me know what you would have responded with!

Anyone else irritated that Apple AirPods are ableist, or is it just me? 🤔
The case can't stay vertical on a flat surface, so good luck getting them out with one hand.

If you're an #IndieAuthor & have a quality book, you might want to enter the Self-Published Book Awards. It might help if you've had your work professionally edited too.#SelfPublishing writersdigest.com/writers-di…

with the news of book depository closing, people are saying blackwell’s is THE alternative.
and even though i love blackwell’s, i want to remind everyone they don’t actually offer free international shipping… they just change the price of the book depending on where you live.

For those of you who are upset about Book Depository closing forever, please do check out Blackwells.co.uk. They also have free shipping and these are the countries they ship to.
Please retweet this so other ppl can benefit from it!
