Hey #indieAuthor people, anyone have a passionate opinion about free vs purchased ISBNs for #audiobooks ? It seems like there are a lot fewer platforms to distribute on, vs the whole Amazon vs IngramSpark issue for paperbacks, so the argument of being able to use the same number across platforms is less vital?

RE: https://mindly.social/@floofpaldi/116382690989479871 Writing momentum gets traded in the form of word-count comparisons, revision plans, and a light, personal look at the confusion of chapter/word-density. #IAS #IndieAuthor #IndieAuthors #AmWriting

RE: https://indieauthors.social/@extraspecialbitter/116290285395476453 Thoughtful renga/haiku responses—hawks, river vigil, and willow catkins—offered as small poetic “turns” into the ongoing chain. #IAS #IndieAuthor #IndieAuthors #AmWriting

For any #writers with books out (old, new, trad, hybrid, indie, doesn’t matter!) I have 1 slot left in May for an Author Spotlight interview, and then lots free from June-Dec (some slots spoken for in advance around launch dates etc).

I don’t charge for Spotlights.

No AI please, I think I’ve spotted some AI covers creeping in & want to nip that in the bud…

Fiction & Poetry only at this time.

Contact me here: https://cmrosens.com/contact/

I have just listed one of my back catalogue titles on #NetGalley - The Redemption of Jarek. Description: "After a humiliating defeat and banishment from the kingdom's capital, Jarek retreats to his tentatively loyal domain. He faces the scrutiny of commanders and villagers alike, and struggles to maintain their support while mending a dysfunctional former dukedom. When strangers arrive seeking amnesty, the struggle against their relentless pursuer could be Jarek's last." Request Title here: https://www.netgalley.com/catalog/book/819428 #fantasy #bookstodon #TheRedemptionOfJarek #sff #BookReviews #indieauthor #indieauthors #indiebooks #indiebook #IndieApril

A good writing session today, 1400 words, good compared to my output lately, anyway, which has been rather rubbish. #writing #indieAuthor #writingcommunity #writersOfMastodon

RE: https://indieauthors.social/@dylanmadeley/116233785282830759 This book still needs reviewers via #NetGalley or #BookSirens or #ReedsyDiscovery or #BookSprout or direct through me (only the last option requires you to fill out a simple Google Form so I can track who I email copies to). Links in blog post! Help appreciated! I'm not picky about who applies via NetGalley, either. So far, 25 Requests, 25 Acceptances. #Bookstodon #Indieauthor #Indieauthors #Indiebooks
