Morning, CoSo! ⚑

Today's newsletter talks shop:

A little under a week out from publishing Children of Doro, I am *all* about transparency around the emotional, financial, & pragmatic components of publishing in this strange day and age.

Hope it helps others in the fray. πŸ’›

(With a shout-out to @nnlightsbookheaven for the fantastic work they do promoting writers like me and you!)

@MLClark Looking forward to Friday, when my copy of Children of Doro is set to arrive. Congratulations on the release! πŸŽ‰πŸŽˆπŸŽŠπŸΎπŸ₯³

@Apocryphiliac ❀️πŸ”₯ Apocryphiliac! That is so incredibly kind of you. Thank you so much for supporting the work. I hope it's a worthwhile experience.

And hello! Long time no chat! I hope things are going really well on your end, and that there's been room for creative practice (or at least rad film viewings!) in the fray.

@MLClark Nah, honestly I'm *really* looking forward to reading it. "Bros. K. in space" was all I needed to be convinced (been a favorite of mine since I first read it as a teen). I have also been enjoying your Substack. Keep it up. I'm legitimately a big fan of your work.

Things are going ok, thanks! I haven't had much time for anything in about a year, (I thought I had "no time" prior to that, then realized what "no time" really is!) but I'm looking forward to that changing... soon! πŸ‘

Meeee toooo!

Man, it's good to see you back, even if only hopping on for a quick and kind word. You take good care of yourself during that intense press of life, eh? Health above all else, as long as we can manage it. Cheers, friend!

@MLClark Thanks. πŸ‘ I'll try to check in more regularly. We shall seeEeee.... πŸ˜†

Fingers crossed you can independently republish and sell your "Grand Inquisitor" nested sub-section for some of the folks who think the novel is "far too wordy." πŸ˜‰ πŸ˜‚
