The long Cocky-gate nightmare is over

sudshr47 June 18, 2018

I’ve been wanting to write about Cocky-gate for some time now but the story – a row between self-published authors that degenerated into ridiculousness – seems finally over and perhaps we can all get some perspective. The whole thing started in May when a self-published romance author, Faleena Hopkins, began attempting to enforce her copyright […]

Barnes & Noble teeters in a post-text world

This writer’s emotional post about depression is actually incredibly uplifting

sudshr47 November 20, 2017

Anyone with any experience of mental illness will know that it’s not always easy to articulate the way you feel.

It can be difficult to communicate with others, and even more difficult — when you’re in the midst of a depressive episode — to imagine coming out the other side.

But writer Craig Stone has done both of those things.

On Sunday morning, he shared an image of his son taken on the banks of London’s River Thames, alongside an uplifting message about depression.

See that bench. 8yrs ago I sat on it thinking about throwing myself off Blackfriars Bridge. Today, I took this pic of my son. Tomorrow might be the same. But it might also be brighter. It might even bring unimaginable brilliance. Hang in there. Love is always coming#depression pic.twitter.com/91mYk9hvEo
