Yea.. Me too... I have been experiencing reading slump lately... I started 20 books and couldn't finish any of them.. I find it helpful to watch T.V. and then go back into reading...
I’ve been watching The Big Bang Theory on HBO Max

Oh ok Sonya and I hope everything goes well with you Sonya
HAPPY APRIL AND IT’S APRIL FOOLS’ DAY!
I've been approached by a film production company that has been giving me a pretty hard sales pitch about turning my thriller into a movie. Great - except they want me to put up close to $5K as part of the deal (supposedly, just 15% of the costs). Isn't this just a scam? Does anyone have any experience with this kind of pitch??
I found out about page publishing and did a little research. They wanted three grand to publish and they make spelling errors in the final copy. No thanks.

I have no experience or knowledge with such offers but the very least I'd do is a lot of research about this company. Every author dreams of seeing their books on a screen, which makes it easy for scammers to take advantage of such dreams. I don't think I could trust such offer but again, do your research and be extra careful.
I’m getting my first Covid vaccination shot tomorrow
Christine wrote: "I’m getting my first Covid vaccination shot on tomorrow"How did you feel after? I've had both now and despite having a pretty severe reaction I feel so relieved!
I felt fine Kandice and oh wow Kandice
I’m getting my second Covid vaccination shot tomorrow

Here is online June 10th.
He is giving one hour of his time.
This has taken over 20 e-mails backwards and forwards to get this arranged with agents, managers, publishers, and more.
It is on the authors section.

I just read my 75th book. I completed my reading challenge for the year, but I’ll keep going. I listened to a lot of audiobooks on scribd.

I hope you get some relief and resolution soon! It sounds horrid.

I only watched part of the interview. How many of you know that Queen Charlotte, wife of George III and grandmother to Queen Victoria had black ancestors?
