It’s a chilly, rainy day in Brooklyn.
It’s mostly been a good week. I got out two short stories for this little newsletter, and I hired an SEO expert to work on a few books of mine on Amazon. I forgot how nice it is to have help.
The more I focus on the newsletter, the happier I am. It hasn’t been a magical transformation but it has been a slow and consistent rise which feels good on many levels. Mostly, it’s been nice to narrow down my stream of output and do more writing than promoting.
Last week, I also had the chance to meet up with a couple readers in person who wanted to check out my traveling bookstore. We had a few drinks, talked about sex, life, writing, dating, and the general state of the world. It was a super fun evening and hopefully I can do more of that sort of thing in the coming months.
Next weekend, I’m going to join Stoya and her dirty book cub Sex Lit to talk about The Ortolan Hunters and I’m looking forward to that as well. It’s one of those collections I haven’t had a ton of feedback on, and her group is always smart, insightful, and curious. And super friendly.
Let me know if you’d like to join in and I can find you the link.
Otherwise I’m trying to enjoy the cooler weather, sort out plans for the holidays, and generally be good to myself.
That’s all I have today, but I hope you’re well and taking some time to indulge in a little pleasure. Or a lot of it. Hell, go for all the pleasure, because why the hell not?
Have lovely weekends you glorious perverts and romantics,
We will let you know when we are back in nyc or let us know if you’re in Maine. Lol
