So, funny #CoSo moment:

Bluesky is where the bulk of my writing industry is re-assembling post-X, and in the last few days I've had a *huge* uptick in followers there, because my name is in a "starter pack" of recommended SFF-industry accounts.

But are any of those new follows engaging with my actual writing or any posts that don't serve their own uplift?

Of course not.

Because it's still all about branding.

Here - for all our faults - we try to show up for each other as people. A gift. 👌
