If you - like me - prefer buying books directly from authors but haven't found a good list, I have one for you.

It's not great, there's definitely room to grow, but PayHip does have a book catalog that will take you to the authors' individual stores.

Here you go:
https://payhip.com/marketplace/fiction-books

Try it out, look for books, and leave the technobros behind.

Gute Nacht, Freunde.

Wrote a bit for Moon, set up and sent out my newsletter, and now I feel fairly wiped.

Tomorrow is a new day.

I'm #crowdfunding for a film via my website as I'm excluded from major platforms (I'm based on the wrong continent) I've developed it since 2018 and will shoot next year, but I have to figure out the vfx needed to envision this futuristic world with no capitalism, where direct democracy thrives. I need your support! Details https://www.dilmandila.com/donate/wind-a-solarpunk-short-film

I'm curious what authors' thoughts are on this AI translation feature. Is this all upside? If not, what's the downside?

My two cents--I worked on a project for a large book distributor to pilot AI translation. My survey from native speakers of 8 different languages showed a big failure in metaphor/idiom translation, which was one of the biggest negative impacts on reader satisfaction. #WritingCommunity #Writing #Books #Author #Am Reading

I'm making a film in the #solarpunk genre, live action (rather than animation) set in the near future for I want to imagine practical alternatives to capitalism. Given recent events in #us and other places battling fascism, I envision a world where direct democracy is possible, so no central governments, politicians, or police/military. Help me make it!

#solarpunk spoke to me for it is all about activism, imagining a future we would all want to live in. There is the tech and aesthetics to depict, but there is also the worldview, for clean energy without social justice is greenwashing! In this #film I imagine direct democracy in a sustainable world free from capitalism. Help me make it! Share with your friends or donate if you can!

A lot of my works fit #solarpunk but I discovered the genre recently and so this film is the first I'm making with it in mind. meaning I have to carefully create the futurism aesthetics to fit. I imagine a world without central governments or the police or capitalism, and I'm seeking your support to create this future.
