Can anyone help me decide whether to use practice or practise in my WIP?
In English English, it's a c when a noun and an s when a verb. Easy. But I've complicated it in this one, which I'm writing in a colloquial British first person.
The sentence is: I have a practice at rolling my eyes.
My instinct is that in this instance it's a noun. Only, the have could be verbish, couldn't it? So, it's: I verbish a noun-or-verb at verbing my nouns.
What do you reckon?

Last night, as I pulled the covers over me and cracked open the 2nd volume of a series I'm reading, I felt a familiar warmth flow over me.
Trust.
Trust to let the author temporarily be my eyes, my ears, to guide me on a road I have never traveled.
It took me 3/4 the way into the first title of the series before I felt safe with the author.
Last night, as I reached for the book, a chill of anticipation hit me--I was about to meet a cherished friend.

What role do you think Vincent has at the hospital?
"Vincent was a vaper. He was also a skaterboi, an edgelord, and a right royal pain in the neck to the hospital quality & safety program office without them ever knowing it. At 48, his skin revealed a lifetime of exposure to the sun, and his Mowhawk would have been a salt and pepper mix if it were not for the purple and green colors he maintained."

It's my #Mastodon half birthday! I've gained almost as many followers in six months here as I did in six years in the BirdCage. More importantly, I've enjoyed substantive exchanges with people, including:
- meeting several #readers who kindly reviewed my #books;
- sharing #FlashFiction and #Writing insights with fellow authors; and
- undertaking a cool #music/#poetry collaboration (more on that soon)!
I'm excited for what's next! Thank you for being such a terrific community. It's refreshing to find a #SocialMedia space where the only squabbling #birds are in my #nature #photography.
After the Great Darkness of 1999, many wondered about the fate of all the boats (and the people on them) out to sea that year. While no one can know for sure, there have been sightings of various ships some believe to be the missing vessels. These immense boats are often called "Zombie ships" or "Hell Barges" due to their unearthly and ghastly appearances. Some have rotting corpses and bones clung to their surface like barnacles, while others seem to possess writhing tentacles as if the vessels had a life of their own. However, none of the massive things seem to show signs of human life, only an outre and horrific transmogrification beyond human understanding.

So I've finally finished the #Spellslinger series ending with Sebastien De Castell's #CrownBreaker.
It's one of those series I'm really sad to finish but really happy to have read (or listened to). It's definitely a #series. I will revisit. Loved the #characters, the #magical systems and #worldbuilding. Must #read for #fantasy #readers.
Also, Joe Jameson did an excellent job narrating these books.

Literacy is liberating! I've made it my purpose to invest a portion of all my book-related sales (books, merch, training etc) to Chicago Books to Women in Prison. Your purchases help ship books to state prisons in Arizona, California, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi and Ohio, as well as all federal prisons.

The most chronically online #bookish take I’ve seen recently is that you shouldn’t give a #book a bad review or DNF it publically because those actions hurt authors’ feelings
I’m surprised that this sentiment gained as much traction as it did, seems like common sense that reviews and DNF shelves are for the #readers not the #authors
Are you a writer? I made an app for gathering beta readers. HTTP://betaread.me
You can upload a book and "boost" it for extra visibility. When you complete a read for someone else, you get a point to boost your own book.

I’ve found that among fellow #readers it’s a common experiences to have a few #books on the shelf that you just can’t get into no matter how much you may want to
For me, these are:
Dune
Snowcrash
Wheel of Time (1-14)
I’ve heard such great things about all three, but ever time I start one it’s like wading through molasses
What book(s) do you want to read but can’t seem to get into?
What are your unpopular scifi and fantasy opinions?
I'll go first: Teleportation is a better power than the power to fly.

I am a blind gay #Romance writer that blogs sometimes.
I sometimes write #AudioDramas but I write personal essays and prose more than scripts.
I listen to a ton of #AudioBooks and #Podcasts, both fiction and nonfiction podcasts. Just for fun, I share my #Libby archive every month.
Book and blog updates can be found at, either,
my website, https://blindjournalist.wordpress.com/
Or, aside from here, @weirdwriter@micro.blog or http://micro.blog/WeirdWriter?remote_follow=1
My backup blog is at https://sightlessscribbles.micro.blog/
Finally, I love hanging out in #RomanceLandia a lot because it's a better way to understand humans. I had a Bookwyrm account but I moved everything over to @weirdwriter@micro.blog
Oh, and I also rant about #Accessibility sometimes. Buy my books so I can write more!
To buy my books, go here. https://blindjournalist.wordpress.com/books/
I am agented, but still publish with indie presses. I stink at spelling and grammar but can make you feel warm and fuzzy with sweet, imperfect, men!

Some time ago I wrote a book of 10 musical #fables beautifully #illustrated by 10 different #artists.
I sold most of the 1st edition, and recently put 2nd ed on amazon. But I still have a few copies of the 1st.
I'd love to share this book with #writers, #readers on Mastodon.
It's fun, easy, and twisty like a #MobiusStrip.
So I'm giving the last few 1st ed copies away.
If you want one, DM and we'll figure out how I get one to you. I'll pay shipping.

I was digging inside old/used books stores earlier...
I felt myself sorrounded by many ghosts from those old books. Yes, sometimes may be creepy but at same time was so pleasant. Reminds me of Shion Miura's words about those old books.
