Thanks amigos! It took me almost six years but I finished writing my first book. Congratulations Zortegus!! Quite an achievement, isn't it? Please tell us more details! Do you already have a cover? (Are you going to create it yourself?) Can you tell us the synopsis? Are you going to launch in Portuguese or English? What is the target audience? It's a romance? How many words are there in the book? Are you going to do your own layout? Are you going to publish on Amazon? I have an idea for the cover but still didn't get to do it.
As I said the book is about friends that broke your heart, exploring the loss of losing a dear friend and the way some people build fences around them to protect themselves to avoid getting hurt and instead gets even more hurt. Kind of a coming-of-age book but for nerds who didn't go through regular teenage years I guess?
My priority is to publish it in Spanish first and then maybe an English version and then I can get you to translate it to portuguese!
The target audience is whoever wants to read it but I guess people around 25-35 will get it particularly.
It's not a romance book but I guess it talks about different ways of love.
It's around 50k words.
Probably yes.
Maybe, I don't know yet.

Congarats, Zort! I don't think you ever mentioned writing a book. I have an arbitrary question, but how long is it? Thanks Terry Berry. I think I never talked about it because it was a really bumpy road, no wonder it took me almost six years to finish it. I've been reading early drafts and boy it differs from what I got in the end haha.
It's 147 A4 pages, 50.138 words!

One of the funniest letterboxd movie reviews I've seen is for a 4h Andy Warhol-documentary from 2006:

My family brought our new kitten home today. Every time I hear him meow, my ovaries explode. It's a curse to be a woman sometimes. He is a Siamese, big brown ears and brown face. He has incredible blue eyes, so blue they'd make a sapphire jealous. His name is Sam(son), tho we just call him Sam.

Had to clean the break room at work the other day. Seriously, whose idea was it to melt a block of cheese in the microwave?!

It's funny because Mr. M is both dyslexic and a librarian
