recettes

Maintenant que j’ai le matériel dont j’ai besoin, je me chauffe à faire un peu plus de cuisine (je partais de zéro au début du COVID et je commence à me débrouiller sur toutes les bases, mais je ne cuisine quand même pas beaucoup de trucs sophistiqués, et en pâtisserie je n’ai absolument aucune connaissance).…

testing lemmy comments from wordpress

Replied to Bingo! How to post to Lemmy from Mastodon! – Lemmy (lemmy.ml)

Bingo! How to post to Lemmy from Mastodon! @test [https://lemmy.ml/c/test] Put
the title of the post in the first line. Then tag the lemmy community as though
they are an account. Then tag other people at the end if you want them included.

My turn to test: I’m wondering if posting from my Wordpress website, which is compatible with activitypub, works to post a comment to Lemmy. If that works, I’ll then have to figure out how to create a post in a community 🙂

choosing a hybrid publisher

Liked Writer’s Workshop: 3 Reasons I Chose a Hybrid Publisher (K E Garland)

First things first. It’s good. I almost feel like it’s too good for me to publish. Like you could get an agent, and do a proposal, and go traditional. Honestly, I’m happy to suppo…

Interesting thoughts about choosing a publisher that’s somewhere between an indie press and a vanity publisher.

nobody cares about your blog

Liked Nobody cares about your blog by Alex Molas (alexmolas.com)

I started writing on my blog some years ago, and since then I’ve had a lot of reasons to stop writing. Here’s a list of why nobody cares about your blog:

The McNulty spectrum

Liked I am on the McNulty Spectrum (Jay Little – Software Obsessionist)

So over the last few weeks, I have been re-watching one of my favorite television shows of all time, The Wire. If you haven’t seen it, you should probably rectify that oversight. That being what it is, I’m currently making my way through Season 3 and I had a revelation of sorts: I might be a McNulty.

Replied to Speaking in different languages by Pablo Morales (lifeofpablo.com)

I wrote a post a few weeks ago about writing content in other languages and marking it up using h-entry tags. There is something so satisfying to write in different languages. Different parts of my brain activate and it works differently in each language. I also « become a different » person as each l…
