I'm a little tired of accounts that constanly post "🚨 BREAKING:" and then say something that is proofless gossip. It's like everybody is the "World Weekly News" but without the fun Batboy and aliens-ate-my-dog stories.

My book "Escape From OUB-8" is in the Based book sale. As well as Sidearm & Sorcery Volume 1 and an issue of StoryHack. Check it out! Lots of great reads in here.

The latest Based Book Sale is now live. What is a "based book?" And what is a "Based Book Sale," you ask? Well, read on! based [ beyst ] / beɪst / adjective 1. Well-grounded, resting upon a firm foundation. 2. Principled, devoted to fixed standards, especially in defiance of conventional wisdom. 3. Rejecting politically correct attitudes and celebrating nonconformity with woke opinion. 4. Committed to upholding and advancing the good, the beautiful, and the true. antonyms: debased, cringe A few times a year, indie and small press authors band together for a special sale. For one week, we all price some of our best books at only $0.99 or free, and we mutually promote the sale to our readers, fans, mailing lists, and social media followers. Why is the Based Book Substack needed? Because gatekeeping is real, and the mission of mainstream publishing is to push the narratives and cultural programming they want to impose on you, not to offer the entertaining and worthwhile stories you want to read. One mainstream literary agent declares she is “ONLY open to receiving queries from writers from marginalized backgrounds such as (but not limited to) those who identify as BIPOC/BAME, LGBTQ , ND, and DIS.” Even authors of woke fiction risk cancellation if a mob of hate reviewers decide they are insufficiently “diverse” and have “culturally appropriated” otherwise woke writings. As The Federalist observed, conservative guerrilla marketing like the ‘Big Based Book Sale’ is how we fight leftist gatekeepers. But wait, you ask. How much does this cost you? Nothing. Well, except for actually buying the books. Authors share books and find new readers, readers get great deals and discover new authors, and we all help each other out by promoting the sale. With 75 New Arrivals and nearly 200 titles in all, there's something to please all readers.
