Now reading. Excellent. Moves crisply along, and yet does so much to describe the people, the culture, and the world.pic.twitter.com/vmlakPhTbL

6/ Finished "The Long Tomorrow". Not a MAJOR novel, but an excellently crafted one. I complained recently that "This is How You Lose The Time War" was poetically written, but ended up being kinda garbage because there was no plot to speak of.https://twitter.com/MorlockP/status/1327023684238848001 …
7/ Also, TiHYLtTW had, theoretically, two characters ... and yet neither of them really had any personality. They were cardboard cut outs standing in for Bookish Yet Strong Women , and...they were identical. The "love story" wasn't remotely any such thing, bc there were no ppl
8/ Contrast that to The Long Tomorrow, where the level of poetry was almost as high, and yet in a very short novel (250 pp), there were DOZENS of distinct characters, each of whom felt very real.
@monsterhunter45 self published and then got a contract from Baen.
I've done both trad pub and self-pub. Generally I prefer self-pub. More control, faster and more money in the long term
