@NatureMC @bookwyrm @writers while I didn't dig deep, I'm not sure how bookwyrm would prevent fake review bombing... tho federated instances could block, but it's still lots of content moderation...

@pyperkub Of course but here real people and admins are working for that. I also think that with the size of the servers here, a bombing would be noticeable due to the size of the data. @bookwyrm @writers

Working on a idea for a change and could do with help for a pregnancy timeline.

Young couple - just kids really - fool about and she gets pregnant. Let's say that's late summer, end of harvest maybe.

I need to figure out:

  • How soon she realises
  • How long she keeps it hidden
  • How quickly the parents can arrange a wedding for these only-just-old-enough kids to preserve some social standing

For context, this is 1890s, small town in Northern England.

@writers I reckon it could be 3 or 4 weeks at most for her to realise, she might hide it for another couple of months... hasty wedding on the quiet another two weeks after that perhaps, if they slip the priest a bribe. So maybe the pregnancy is not quite halfway through by the time she's at the altar? And that's approaching mid to late December?

@drinkswriter @writers 3-4 weeks at most to realise? nah. With irregular periods, could be 4 months.

Hello fellow-writers, help wanted. Last week my partner lost a number of my tabs. They are irretrievable. One of them was of a website by women on ao growing vegs and, if I remember it well, pictures of pumpkins. They also asked for fiction submissions on nature, with possible bonus points for a vegan character. It's not hearthstories.
Can anybody help me, please? Thanks in advance!

@MarjoleinRotsteeg @writingcommunity @writers I can't help with the website but I will say that if you happen to browse using a google account, your entire history is saved in a really well-indexed list that lets you locate search and site history a lot more deeply than a history search provides

@seanwithwords @writingcommunity @writers Thanks, Sean, I'll try this option. Number of tabs sounds familiar.😉

SimonRoyHughes,

I am going to change how I sell books. When I get around to sorting things out, I shall offer paperbacks on Lulu and Amazon (pushing Lulu over Amazon), and e-books on Ko-Fi (.epub - at reduced prices because of reduced overheads) and Amazon (.mobi - for those locked into the Kindle library).

The way I look at it, I'm unlikely to grow rich from writing and selling books, so why waste time working towards that end? It is enough that the stuff I produce is made available for those who may be interested.

#writingcommunity @writers is it just me, or does anyone else also sometimes reread their old works and go "how did I write something this good?"? that's been me this entire day today
