#authors I just read a story by one of my all time favorite SF writers. I've read most of his books from the 1960s on. This "lost story" from 1956, was published last year. The story was awful, had nothing at all to recommend it. I write this to remind new writers. You see, even a giant starts in steps. And of course this is true for any art. Vincent Van Gogh's early sketches? Frank Lloyd Wright's designs? You have to start somewhere. Keep on learning, practicing, improving.
It's tiring that when someone with a huge following says something, hundreds of commenters swarm in, regardless whether they actually have anything to say or any knowlledge on the topic. Let a post scroll by if you can't ADD VALUE.

Bandwagon: Another initiative for indies #Musicians Bandwagon is an open social app for indie musicians and bands. It is the alternaative to big centralized servers where you don’t always fit in. Anyone can run their own Bandwagon server and share their music on a site they control. 1/3
#spotify is an obscene word for some, but I am studying it closely with regard to 95 tracks I have there. In 2024, when they went to the 1,000 stream minimum, I pulled off about 130 other tracks. I felt that they should be in inventory unremunerated, even if it's pennies. 1/4
There are a hundred reasons to have music constantly playing, but few are as unlikely as actually listening to it!
