if your book is pirated you didn't lose a sale, you gained a reader; they were never going to make that purchase. deal. if your contract with your distribution platform penalizes YOU for the inherent vice of having a product on the world wide web you need to get a better contract

idk who needs to hear this today but feminine/feminized doesn't equate to good and masculine doesn't mean bad. It's a false dichotomy created to enforce the language of eugenics and to always push violence onto more marginalized bodies, esp those who are trans and nb.

"not liking/reading classics" still makes you a reader but consider; the opposite is ALSO true, if you mainly read classics you're SO valid and you SHOULD be encouraged to read a wide variety of books INCLUDING classics (not just the 20 bktwt popular romances)

The value of your bookshelf isn't how many books you buy or how expensive they are, how color-coded or how trendy, but how read they are--how worn, analyzed, studied, dreamed about, and of course, loved. A book must be loved to be truly yours.

Reading books aloud and audiobooks are a different and vital way of absorbing a story. There are many poems, plays, and novels out there that were designed to be shared like this. The solitude of reading a book alone is beautiful but also limiting.
