Evander L FragosoMy goodness... So, in working to update my books to republish them I've been looking at other apps to use. I write in Google Drive, since it lets me work on my phone and laptop smoothly. It's great for that, but I have to keep all my chapters in separate docs or else things start to really bog down (at least that's been my experience in the past). So far copy&pasting the chapters into one doc when they are done, and exporting afterwards has been working okay, but it would be nice to have an app to replace Drive that is more Novelist Centric. Oh well. Nothing seems to work well enough for me, or have an android app. There were a few that looked okay, but I'm not looking to pay a subscription for them.I'm happy that Draft2Digital at least does a nice job of formatting my Drive exported Docx files for ebooks, and I'm hoping that it works similarly when I get around to paperbacks. What a pain this whole process has been. I'm exhausted from jumping around trying things. <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/indiepublishing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#indiepublishing</a>

Sinossi: Nova City, anni Cinquanta. Le lucciole di Shade Park hanno un problema: un misterioso aggressore sta diventando sempre più pericoloso e Dog Kane viene ingaggiato per scovarlo e neutralizzarlo.

Mountain HermitWhen I started, self-publishing was still finding its footing. No KDP, no print-on-demand, no social media algorithms. Just authors, stories, and readers. Now? The game has changed. Some doors opened, others closed. But indie publishing is still about freedom—even if it's harder to hold onto. What's changed most for you? <a href="https://mountainthermit.blogspot.com/2025/03/two-decades-of-self-publishing-how-my.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://mountainthermit.blogspot.com/2025/03/two-decades-of-self-publishing-how-my.html</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/IndiePublishing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#IndiePublishing</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/WritingCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WritingCommunity</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AuthorLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AuthorLife</a>"

KuiryMi presento brevemente: sono architetto e insegnante di Disegno e Storia dell'Arte e dal 2013 - dando corpo a un'antica passione - realizzo e pubblico fumetti con una piccola realtà editoriale indipedente. La produzione è incentrata prevalentemente su un personaggio, Dog Kane, protagonista dei volumi ”L’arco della notte”, “Tacchi a Spillo” e “Stiletto Heels”, oltre a quattro comicbook della collana “Storie dall’Archivio”. Nella produzione anche due graphic novel: 'Salomè NOIR' tratto da Oscar Wilde e 'Pale - l'anima della terra', un racconto grafico dedicato a una divinità pagana e ambientato in uno dei luoghi più suggestivi dell'Umbria. Da oggi debutto su <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/pixelfed?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pixelfed</a> e fin da ora ringrazio chi vorrà seguire i miei lavori. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/FrancescoGaggia?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FrancescoGaggia</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Kuiry?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Kuiry</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/fumetto?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fumetto</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/illustrazione?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#illustrazione</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/indie?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#indie</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/indiepublishing?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#indiepublishing</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/comics?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#comics</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/comicsbook?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#comicsbook</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/graphicnovel?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#graphicnovel</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/illustration?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#illustration</a>
