How do you tell if someone's a "real" #author?
Ask if their fever dreams are about ISBN allocation. If they can tell a harrowing tale of Kafkaesque unique ID per copy proportions, then they are a real author.
This test is unashamedly designed to privilege people who are me. Because I deserve some positive worth after getting hammered down for days by the aforementioned fever.
@DaveHiggins Feeling better?
@starbreaker It's not fun.
If I hadn't confirmed my latest release date as this week the day before it hit - so was kind of stuck with certain tasks - I'd have potentially withdrawn to a blanket fort until next month.
@starbreaker Less worse.
I have enough energy to think that I have energy and sometimes be right.
Mostly the last two days have been islands of small things amid the sea of mucus and flumpage though.
