@theexplorographer Thank you 🙂 If the orange sky wasn't so in-your-face, would the one on the right appal to you more do you think? The orange sky is my fault, I wanted a distinct sunset but I have a feeling that it might be just a bit too much 😛

@ariaflame Thank you 🙂

@ariaflame Thank you 🙂 Appreciate the feedback. If the title/font were the same, which image would you prefer?

@icastico Thank you 🙂If you don't mind, can you tell me what elements of the left image appeal to you? And what elemetns of the right image turn you off?

I have to replace the cover of my science fiction novel, but I'm torn as to which one to go with. Can you help me figure out which one is the better cover?

Please let me know which one you like. And also, please share for reach 🙂

After you publish your novel, you need to promote it.

Finding review readers can sometimes be very hard. Here's my follow up thoughts about some book review services after using them for a while. If you're an aspiring author, maybe my experiences will help you avoid some of the traps and pitfalls? I sure hope so!

Does anyone know of any fiction/poetry-centric corners of the fedi? I've started writing again (at long last!) and would love to find more places to share my own work and engage with other writers.

Reposts appreciated! 🙏

First post on #mastodon, getting to know the place. Mostly interested in #science & #scicom content. Hello everyone! 👋

Hey #fediverse, I want to connect to more people here.

I am a #MachineLearning engineer who has experience with #python, #golang, some #rust, #php and #JavaScript. I also love research and have a paper published in #CVPR. Currently, I am using #AI for improving the safety on the roads. I've worked as full-stack engineer in the past.

I find this platform and people here awesome. I've had amazing interactions and want to grow them.

Hey all! I'm still on the job hunt for a junior iOS dev position. I started doing iOS in undergrad and have focused on CS education since graduating. Unfortunately, I was impacted by layoffs at my most recent teaching position and could really use a new opportunity. I'd greatly appreciate any leads. :) Feel free to check out my portfolio here: davidruvinskiy.com.

@BobWilliams Sorry to hear things are not going so well, Bob. But yes, it's better to talk about it than to hold it in and let it fester. Hope things improve.

At my end, I was woken up by dang neighbours (or their guests) and can't go to sleep. Will try again in a bit. No biggie. But just up later than usual.

Quick reminder that my current job is killing me so share my resume and help me find a new one before I literally die from the stress of 50+ hour weeks.

@BobWilliams Work is always a good distraction ... unless of course, it's work that you need a distraction from 😛

@tivasyk Thank you 🙂

@BobWilliams Sorry to hear that. Been a bit too caught up in a few things at my end lately to catch up on your posts ... Did notice that you had a bunch of stuff happening but didn't know what. Hope things calm down though. Sending good vibes your way 🙂

@BobWilliams Thanks, Bob 🙂Hope you are doing well?

I wrote my first novel over 20 years ago. Then I got busy with work and life and didn't write for the longest time. Finally, my second novel is out today. It's a science fiction novel called "Sir Lanka Files" set in a future Sri Lanka thousands of years from now.

The book is on Amazon here:

Please take a look and if you like what you see, please share with your friends who might like it too and help an indie author out 🙂

Refreshed my writing portfolio with some samples. Happy to chat if any indie folks would like a bit of freelance narrative/writing.

I'm great at lore, world building, juicy flavour text and unique characters.
