How TikTok’s BookTok Phenomenon Is Transforming the Literary World
“I think it’s really just been an evolution. We’ve always had these influencers that put books into readers’ hands and now TikTok has created an exponential growth way of doing that. It’s wonderful and really rewarding for publishers to see that readers are falling in love with our books and sharing it on this platform that can get it to so many people,” Libby McGuire, senior vice president and publisher at Atria Publishing, said to Observer.

Friendship
In the space where two hearts are joined and laughter resounds, friendship blossoms. They wait together, through storms and sunsets, in happiness and grief.

Prompted: #1. Top Story - February 2024.
PROMPTED: INTRODUCTION I'm new here, but I'm a fan of writing prompts (I have a few things to say about them HERE) and I'm a fan of creating community and uplifting other writers. So, I thought I'd attempt to host a writing challenge (unofficial). If it gets enough interest, I hope to make this a regular monthly exercise. I welcome your feedback and encourage you to join in the fun.

A Story Every Day - Prompts for February 2024
February is almost on us, so here are some prompts for you for your brain to mull on! Reminder: The aim is to post a short story (microfiction) EVERY DAY in 2024. Here's the post about it, and the follow-up. Word limit is 366 (minimum count 300) The prompts are aids only, not challenges (unless you want to use them that way). It doesn't have to be perfect. Hopefully a decent standard, but not perfect. Perfection is the enemy of creativity, no? The idea is to get the juices flowing. Stories that are short and sweet, and plenty of them. There's a way to keep your streak going if you know in advance you won't be able to get online on certain dates

Quantum, as I feel
Quantum! Have you ever heard the word? Now, the apprehenders are wondering what the hell this guy is asking about the most successful physics theory ever produced in the world of science! But remember, everyone is not an apprehender and a science engrossed.

A hero is coming 🦸‍♂️
A hero is someone who brings hope, someone who through his bravery and courage is able to save the world, to move it forward. We have no shortage of those in this day and age. The world is constantly changing and with these changes come novel problems or persistent ones, examples of such problems are inequality, racism, poverty, corruption and much more. Contrarily to movies where the villains are depicted as special persons with special abilities, in our society the villains are all these problems we have to fight against and so our heroes are those people who are able to solve these problems and restore hope in our hearts.

The Balance of Navigating Writing and a Full-Time Job
For most writers, there is always the dream of being able to spend the day lounging around and writing stories that sell enough to pay the bills, but instead, they have to wake up at ungodly hours and have a long commute to a job that they may or may not like, before dragging themselves home and into bed before repeating it all the next day.

Views are Like Customers to Writers
