Also, (more wisdom via Spike Trotman) NEVER, EVER sign away lifetime IP rights! That's the most important thing you have as a creator!
If you want to make money from your work, great! Put it on prints, merch! License it! Etc!
But there's really nothing that's worth complete, total, *lifetime* control of your work! Because once you've signed your IP rights away, that's IT.
One of those days when making words is a form of performance root-canal. #amwriting #amwritingdreadfullyslowly

Well, everyone, this little pet project of mine has a name now: Tales From The Fediverse!
If you want to be a part of this anthology or help out in any way, shape, or form, reply or DM me!
If you don't think you can help, give us a boost!
Would love to try write.as, but not gonna happen while it claims all kinds of privacy goodness but demands I jump the reCapcha hoops to get in. Paging @write_as

1k words done. Not great volume, but they are pretty good words, some of them. Words like "and" and "fury" and "knees"...

Don't organise on Facebook.
Ever.
An enforced 2week "internet holiday" (aka service outage) has made me ridiculously productive. Might have to switch the internet off more often. #amwriting
