Today's !InconstantMoon #serialization segment 21 is online: http://ur1.ca/4g1qo !SelfPub
-
@laurelrusswurm 21 down, 119 to go? ;-D
-
@stav Yes. Clearly you're a math guy :)
-
@stav Originally I thought I'd roll some scenes into bigger chapters, but when deciding to serialize it seemed natural to leave this way...
-
@laurelrusswurm I'm not good on serialization. I'll wait till Columbus Day (12 October) & DL all segments. Then I'll read it on my !tablet.
-
@laurelrusswurm The scenes that I have read have been good teasers.
-
@stav Thanks. I think !InconstantMoon is a good book, my natural writer's insecurity has been tempered by excellent beta reader feedback.
-
@stav It doesn't get much better than beta-readers apologizing for missing egregious typos because they were too into the story :)
-
@stav The real test will be if my 86 year old mystery-fan aunt - who doesn't even have an internet connection - can follow the story :)
-
@laurelrusswurm I think your right :D Write ON!!
-
@laurelrusswurm Was that too #corny?
-
@lstench Thanks :)
-
@lstench never!
-
@laurelrusswurm Thank you it's good to be able to spend a little time wondering whats going happen next...
-
@laurelrusswurm Now that's cool. SO you found libreoffice easy to use?
-
@lstench !LibreOffice is great. I worked hard 2 address known issues, and it worked. I hope to blog a how-to for other !fsw users !SelfPub
-
@laurelrusswurm Sure it is, and when TDF forked OO, it improved vastly.
-
@laurelrusswurm Yes always pass on the knowledge what issues?
-
@lstench formatting & style issues ... Using Liberation Sans and Liberation Serif in lieu of recommended proprietary Garamond or Arial !fsw
-
@laurelrusswurm recommended why?
-
@lstench Simple is best when you're planning to distribute across multiple platforms; the man who started Smashwords knows Word, ∴M$ fonts
-
@lstench They are trying very hard to open it up, pass along advice re OO where they can... Smashwords is pretty awesome, DRM free 2
-
@agentsmith I haven't done anything like a scientific comparison, but it certainly seems like !LibreOffice wks better than !OpenOffice !fsw
-
@laurelrusswurm Oh got ya, I thought you meant libreoffice was pushing proprietary fonts. makes sense now.
-
@laurelrusswurm Glad to hear it worked out, doesn't it feel good to be able to do things the OS way?
-
@lstench Yes, I am pleased that I wasn't forced to use Microsft Fonts. Unfortunately it seems the only payment method of payment is Paypal.
-
@laurelrusswurm ew! I'd rather use Microsoft fonts than to use PayPal ever again! Bunch of thieves.

@x11r5 Seemingly not. My timeline is pretty quiet.

♻ @x11r5: @whistlewright Does anyone use identi.ca ever again
-
@x11r5 well, my tin friend, I won't be. I have a new home now.
-
@whistlewright I know what you mean. I've thought about it and I'm going to tilt at windmills to see if I can arrange a change.
