    I don't understand Amazon. If I publish a short story that I've previously uploaded on SH and Tapas, I gotta reassure them it's mine. Unless I take out the chapter headlines and add a glossary because that apparently makes it distinctive enough? o.O

    The only time I ever had Amazon contact me to make sure it was my shit was when I first started publishing to it. I think after you’re on the platform with them publishing for long enough they just realize, oh this person again, sure whatever and don’t even bother anymore. There honestly aren’t any hoops at all, the bar is super low to publish to Amazon.

    I mean they've terminated well-established authors in the past because they don't have a good system in place to check assumed copyright infringements. I myself almost got my account blacklisted once despite doing exactly what they asked me to do to prove it was my stuff. So yeah, I'd say there are hoops. You might get lucky that you're not asked to jump through them but they're there.

    Really now? Spam comments advertising a coffee machine? On the website of a tea drinker who writes about people drinking tea all the darn time? :blob_neutral:

    This only means that you don't own a coffee machine. Which gives them a chance, and a chance is all they need. :blob_shade:

    Just use the coffee machine to make tea when you don't want to take the time to prepare it yourself. However, the taste is never as good as when it is made properly so it may not be the best idea for someone who is a tea connoisseur. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to prepare myself a fine kettle of Da Hong Pao that I've been saving.

    My To-Do List is really just "Finish writing these 12 stories", "Finish editing these 10 stories", "Translate these 5 stories". Shit, I gotta actually finish up that stuff sometime soon. Why did I think again it was a good idea to have two accounts? :blob_sweat:

    Thank you! I still think I can. Just need to start somewhere and slowly slog through ~ :blob_aww:

    Looking for a photo of a woman for a cover for once.
    Me: searching for "woman kitchen blond" in order of importance
    Search results: naked woman on horse, woman in lingerie in the kitchen, woman topless in the kitchen, woman with naked feet on kitchen counter
    Me: Fuck this noise! You don't sit with your feet on the counter! Especially not barefooted, you dirty pig! :blob_catflip:

    I've self-published more than 20 books and short stories but the last time went so badly thanks to some Amazon bot that I got anxiety at the thought of doing it again today :blob_blank: It's about darn time I woman up though and get back into publishing :blob_pout:

    *new side character appears*
    Me: Ah, they don't need a name! They'll be gone soon enough ~
    *10 chapters later*
    Me: Maybe I should have given them a name :blob_blank: Does it make sense to give them one now? Maybe they'll stay around for longer ... :blob_hmm:

    Haha, I could but I usually just add it in when I finally realize that I'm definitely not getting around it anymore. I should edit it in, in the previous chapters whenever I get around to a full edit though :blob_hmm:

    I have so many side characters without names. However, I also created a ton of side characters with names. For some reason, Naming them causes me to kill them off far quicker than I intended.

    yansusustories
    Ah, well, I guess killing off random side characters that couldn't even get a name wouldn't have the same impact :blob_hmm:

    Just realized I'm an idiot: I abbreviate titles for my recordings cause I'm lazy. When I scrolled through them, I suddenly saw some I couldn't identify. What's TDN? And what's TDK? Well, turns out they are the same. I just can't type and now 'night' apparently begins with 'K' :blobrofl: And nope, no knights in there. Just a crazy magician :blob_blank:

    Lol.
    At least you managed to figure them out eventually.

    Yeah, that's the good part. Thankfully, the characters' names were pretty close to the start so it didn't take much time. I renamed the wrong ones so by the time I get around to editing it, I won't be confused again ~ :blob_melt:

    "I thought this story had a system!"
    Title: *doesn't mention a system*
    Cover: *doesn't show anything system-related*
    Synopsis: *doesn't include any references to systems, tasks, or similar*
    First chapter: *doesn't mention a system*
    Whatever made you think there was a system involved? :blob_hmm:

    Ah, finally managed to finish my autumn story ~ :blob_melt:

    That depends on your definition of short story I'd guess :blob_sweat: The shortest is below 6k but the longest so far (that's the autumn one) is almost 30k. The summer story is somewhere in the middle and I guess winter will be similar. They all have a small-ish cast though and only one or two places in terms of setting.

    :blob_aww:Heheh... I write too much, so for me, that is a short story.~ Which is nothing bad. Sometimes short stories hit the right place.💕:blob_melt: Quick reads, which leave fluffy feelings or... tragic ones.
    yansusustories
    yansusustories
    True :blob_blank: I'm actually kind of surprised that the longest only got up to 30k. I was afraid I'd have all of them morph into novels of their own :blobrofl:

    Ah, I'm really in the mood to write something cute but it's late and I still have two chapters to edit ... :blob_teary:

    I did manage to edit the chapters but I didn't have time for anything cute afterward :blob_teary:
    yansusustories
    The problem with having many stories: If somebody writes a comment, you might have to reread the chapter in question to figure out what the fuck they are talking about :blob_blank:
    yansusustories
    Just realized that somehow, all magicians I write about are batshit crazy. Is it the occupation that made them this way or did they choose the occupation because they were crazy to begin with? :blob_hmm:
    yansusustories
    I feel like my stockpile is mocking me. One week I manage to gather several chapters in there and then the next, they're all gone and I need to start over :blob_teary:
