It comes naturally to me, and I captivate readers really fast. What I'm bad at is smut/spicy romance. I attempted that genre before writing THF, and I failed. I didn't even publish it.22 Jul 2026 04:12 +0000at://did:plc:sicho62br23d7jdkhsdnucfq/app.bsky.feed.post/3mr7hhcfkxk2zhttps://bsky.app/profile/miverrasauthor1.bsky.social/post/3mr7cvwtooc22I’m adding one more word to my novel’s genre description. I’ll call it metaphysical allegorical fantasy mystery or shorten it to metaphysical allegory. #books #booksky #booksbluesky #bookskytrending #myth #epic #fantasy #fiction #booksellers #bookshop22 Jul 2026 02:51 +0000at://did:plc:sicho62br23d7jdkhsdnucfq/app.bsky.feed.post/3mr7cvwtooc22https://bsky.app/profile/miverrasauthor1.bsky.social/post/3m7m2mfu2tk2tBookshop https://bookshop.org/p/books/the-hidden-face-m-i-verras/219927e81d5af327 Thriftbooks https://www.thriftbooks.com/w/the-hidden-face_m-i-verras/39420061/?srsltid=AfmBOoot_kz2LGSqD_hcdfbhNSH7WnodBryANScBzH9HUK7dkPCmrGVZ#edition=67723160&idiq=59042592 Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Hidden-Face-M-I-Verras/dp/B0CBW5MNC2 Barnes&Noble https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-hidden-face-m-i-verras/1143453599 Powell's Books: https://www.powells.com/book/the-hidden-face-9798822921337?srsltid=AfmBOoq2H-xo4x8b-Skc1VocBekJm-KxXY2tZj0hEvGOo6nQ08UGuf6K Left Bank Books https://www.left-bank.com/book/9798822921320 #books #booksky10 Dec 2025 02:54 +0000at://did:plc:sicho62br23d7jdkhsdnucfq/app.bsky.feed.post/3m7m2mfu2tk2thttps://bsky.app/profile/miverrasauthor1.bsky.social/post/3mr5lz4jrts2r3 years ago, two trains collided head-on as one was traveling in the opposite direction. Among the victims was a young woman who, before boarding the doomed train, told a friend she had a feeling she should take a different one instead. She ignored her intuition, and tragically, she lost her life.21 Jul 2026 10:29 +0000at://did:plc:sicho62br23d7jdkhsdnucfq/app.bsky.feed.post/3mr5lz4jrts2rhttps://bsky.app/profile/miverrasauthor1.bsky.social/post/3mr4wc4cerk2vAnother use of AI that annoys me is AI-generated animal videos.

While we can tell whether a drawing or painting was created by a human, it's much harder to tell whether a piece of music was composed by a human or generated by AI. It annoys me when I come across a piece of music I really like, only to find out it's AI.21 Jul 2026 03:31 +0000at://did:plc:sicho62br23d7jdkhsdnucfq/app.bsky.feed.post/3mr4up3f5b22uhttps://bsky.app/profile/miverrasauthor1.bsky.social/post/3mr4p2vola22hI'm not a fan of style makeovers. Style reflects personality. No one should change who they are for anyone or for any reason. Even when I dress up for a special occasion, I always incorporate elements of my signature style into my outfit.21 Jul 2026 01:51 +0000at://did:plc:sicho62br23d7jdkhsdnucfq/app.bsky.feed.post/3mr4p2vola22hhttps://bsky.app/profile/miverrasauthor1.bsky.social/post/3mr4gr6wmrk2lI dislike apps that suspend accounts for minor reasons. Selling artwork through social media isn’t a violation. How is someone supposed to sell their artwork? Run through the streets holding a sign saying, ‘My name is Duh, please buy my book/painting’?

Instead, they're treated like everyone else and are unfortunately exposed to things they should never have to see.18 Jul 2026 14:08 +0000at://did:plc:sicho62br23d7jdkhsdnucfq/app.bsky.feed.post/3mqwgu66j7c2nhttps://bsky.app/profile/miverrasauthor1.bsky.social/post/3mqteiv7dbc2lI'm happy to see that my first book has been attracting so many new buyers and readers across several other platforms lately.
