    Nonfiction editor here! "TK" means "to come" (as in, "This text is still to come"). It's TK and not TC because TK looks "wrong" and jumps off the page to editors/copyeditors/proofreaders, so everyone knows we're still waiting on something and we'll notice the TK before it gets published :)
    Great video as always!

    Gabe increasingly looks like his own much gay younger brother and he’s like “when I was 23” and It’s like no when you ARE 23 young man. Honestly, trans mascs

      Good luck. My publisher disappeared with six of my novels. Still available in e forms but I receive no royalties. Be careful about choosing a publisher. Most are judish entities and you can not expect an honest business from them. Perhaps consider self publishing. You will have more control over your work.

      Wisdom from 20 somethings? Give me a break. I am 73 and just coming into my wisdom. Wisdom comes when you realize how little you actually know. Twenty somethings seem to know everything but have no life experience. Indeed, adults formed opinions based on the rantings of a youngster from Scandinavia; a little autistic jewish girl. Come on adults. Be adults and stop giving into poorly educated morons.

    I don't comment a lot but I have been following you two for a while. This one hit close to home. FYI I am an published author of poetry. Am I good at it hell no. But during that time being published was the thing to do so I paid a bit of money and they made a book meaning I am a published author of poetry. also that time = when being published was important.

    • @DavidBDMyers
      @DavidBDMyers 8 месяцев назад +3

      TLDR. I paid a scammer to release a book with my poetry in it to become a published author.

    Hi Allison and Gabe,
    I was wondering if you would be open to the idea of sharing your videos on Spotify instead of RUclips. Personally, I find it easier to stay focused and really dive into content on Spotify compared to RUclips.
    I really love watching your videos, and have been watching since I was 15 and now I'm 24
    While I understand that your audience is currently on RUclips, I truly believe that you could reach even more people on Spotify.
    Please consider it, pretty please !! xxxx International Question from london haha

    Why are books 'so long'? Perhaps people who write books tend to have a long attention span unlike most morons 'educated' by the public fool system. My biggest book to date, not published yet, is over 400,000 words and took seven years to write the first draft. The last 8 years of Nero's reign. You can't reduce that to a pamphlet.
