Hi Kathleen, how often do you do the Weekend Thread, Book Therapy? Thanks!

Usually every Friday. It's coming back this Friday. I took a little break.

This breakdown on publishing futures is solidβ€”but missing the stealth players. R.β€―Solace. Not a PR stunt, not a front. A rumored titan quietly optioning whole worlds under the radar. This isn’t noise –it’s a signal.

Kathleen- I saw either on Threads or in one of your posts that you did a new podcast interview, but I can’t track back to where you mentioned it. (It’s probably in this post and I’ve read it but not processed it. πŸ™„) When you have a moment, would you please drop the link so I can find it. I searched on Apple podcasts by your name, but their search tool is a mess and I couldn’t find it there, either. Thank you.

β€œGraphic design is not my strong suit β€œ should be tattooed on my forehead. I have a graphic design designer who does work for me, but occasionally I’m in a hurry to post something and create a visual for myself using templates she’s made for me, but I still screw them up. I always text her and apologize in advance. πŸ˜†

Wow β€” I just tried the Tertulia site and cannot believe how easy it is. I love this tool! I need to go in and edit a few details so hopefully there’s an option for that, but this is such a great way to get a quick website up and running.
