I understand this is giving my new book away for free, but honestly, have at it! If any podcasters or bloggers or #YouTube people wanna review Pass the Salt, or anybody just wants to grab it for free, here you go! This folder will be deleted in 2 months, so have fun with it! If you like it, support my writing financially.

Online dating is never easy. You’re meeting a complete stranger, and you’re opening yourself up in a way that some of your best friends don’t even get to see. But when Robert Kingett stepped out onto the dating scene, he faced a whole host of additional challenges as a gay man living with blindness, cerebral palsy, and a speech impediment. Pass the Salt details Robert’s time on the dating scene in 2010s Chicago. Get ready to meet the brightest and best from the online dating world, including The Fare Fan, The Smooth Catfish, and the dashing Richard, who’s better company than Robert’s humming fridge. It’s a hilarious and often moving account of his adventures, guaranteed to make you laugh, make you think, and above all, inspire you.

@clmorgan Maybe #IndieWeb & #POSSE & the new abilities to consolidate comments may bring discussion together again?
I have been pondering the fragmentation of comments here on Mastodon (different readers see different parts of a discussion), & more importantly their impermanence (we can go to "original page" to see all, but replies may be purged). Having a copy of record on a site under personal control might be good. Fellow-historians, any thoughts or models?
Made some massive changes to The Book Ring since the last time I've shared it here! Here's what's new.
• New responsive layout
• Member Directory page
• Post submission form for members to upload posts on what they're currently reading. Form includes their name/website to encourage web visitors to their sites.
• Members "Currently Reading" section with RSS feed!
Are Mastodon users really happy with thread behavior? So, for example, this post had a lot of replies, but even if you look at it on the original instance you can't see any of them. You can see my reply to the post on my server, but it is no longer connected to the original post. So it is often impossible to read old threads (& of course even to see all replies on a current one).
@jsadow Very late reply but yes the same realisation disconcerted me greatly. Many of us would like to have a permanent record of at least some posts & of complete conversations! #POSSE & the new abilities to consolidate comments seem the way to go?
As a non-techie nervous of IT complexity, I'd love to see a wider range of #IndieWeb models to follow, including illustrated threads & styled #RSS (& simplest possible resource-light HTML/CSS?) Recommendations please, @histodons & #AcademicChatter?
Ahhhhh look what just arrived in the mail! Finally! 😍 No misprints, nothing upside down, everything seems in tact. 💀 So far it's looking like I got a good batch! 😅
