Nothing says “I love you” quite as much as readers bullying authors using one of Amazon’s shitty tools to do it. I am exhausted. A few times a week, as of late, I get this lovely notice. “One or more of your books has quality items that need to be ad...
Greetings, folks! The Bernadette Franklin books have gotten a facelift! (And any queued typos that were addressed without being uploaded have finally been uploaded. Don’t ask us which books or how many, we don’t know. We know nothing anymore.) The pr...
Dear humans, Did you hear that screamy sound? That was the female. Apparently, her sanity is gone. Just gone. This picture of the female’s BOOX is an excellent representation of the situation. So. Kickstarter. What is it? Why is it? When is it? The k...
Dear humans, We have been asked about upcoming books. While we posted about this in the State of the Blain post in February, we are posting again. We’re in a mood, so please expect plenty of snark. And frankly, we get rude at one stage. We’re really...
