Amazon.com: Singularity Tower: A sci-fi Tower Climbing Adventure eBook : Frost, Deacon: Kindle Store

Condemned to a life of material harvesting in an ancient alien megastructure, Gideon Pike won't rest until he's found his way out from under the thumb of the Whelan Megacorp. His new home, an artifact of immense power, hangs suspended over a blackhole, and has been known to grant individuals strange abilities. Rumor has it this structure is responsible for most of mankind's technological advances over the last hundred and fifty years. Gideon must learn what it means to climb the Tower and lay claim to the power he needs to free himself. Deciding who to trust along the way might be the hardest part. A story of unconventional romance, intense action, and gritty sci-fi adventure.

Who Really Owns Your E-Books? Switching from Kindle to Kobo

The Nonsense-Free Editor

Aug 19, 2024 I had an eye-opening experience transitioning from an Amazon Kindle to a Kobo e-reader. It became obvious that people like Louis Rossman aren't far off when they warn companies like Amazon are removing the concept of ownership all together.

[probablyasocialecologist]

If, as they used to say, everyone has a book in them, AI has created a world where tech utopianists dream openly about excising the human part of writing a book — any amount of artistry or craft or even just sheer effort — and replacing it with machine-generated streams of text; as though putting in the labor of writing is a sucker’s game; as though caring whether or not what you’re reading is nonsense is only for elitists. The future is now, and it is filled with trash books that no one bothered to really write and that certainly no one wants to read. The saddest part about it, though, is that the garbage books don’t actually make that much money either. It’s even possible to lose money generating your low-quality ebook to sell on Kindle for $0.99. The way people make money these days is by teaching students the process of making a garbage ebook. It’s grift and garbage all the way down — and the people who ultimately lose out are the readers and writers who love books. None of this is happening through any willful malice, per se, on the part of the platforms that now run publishing and book-selling. It’s happening more because the platforms are set up to incentivize everything to cost as little as possible, even if it’s garbage.

[...]

The incentives of the modern book-selling economy for writers are to keep your costs low, low, low and your volume high, high, high, and definitely put your book on Amazon because where else are you going to sell an ebook? The incentive of the modern book-buying economy for readers is to go onto Amazon and lazily click around with a few search terms, and then buy the first book that looks right with the click of a single button. The incentives are, in other words, driving us all straight into a flood of garbage.

✨🎵Composition Analysis: Into The Desert Sands 🎵✨

Hello, everyone! 💛✨

I’m back with another music composition analysis from my Story Soundtracks, this time for Your Wish Is My Command. As always, use headphones for the best listening experience.

‼️Warning:‼️ “Into the Desert Sands” is about a chase through the desert. As such, you may experience anxiety when listening. Discretion is advised.

So what’s going on in the plot is that Ali is being chased by his god. This is before he meets Noah, and is the origin of his curse to the magic lamp. I wanted to give the feeling of frantically running, tripping, and struggling to keep up to avoid the impending storm. Frantic, sporadic, without a means of clear direction other than navigating out of the sandstorm and running away from Allah.

Instrumentation: An Oud, A Riq, Violins section and Solo, Ney, and Hand Claps

Meter: 3+3+2/8. Beats are focused on the beginning of each group of notes (ONE-two-three, ONE-two-three, ONE-two)

Tempo: Presto, 190-200 bpm

Key signature: Bb minor, with Phrygian and Dorian melodies. The scale used is common in middle-eastern motifs.

Melody: Primarily given to the Ney and the Oud. Sporadic, falling 16th notes in the Ney to demonstrate tripping over one’s heels, mimicked in the Oud. Octave leaps help re-establish the stepwise melodies, which rise and fall like tides in the sand.

Really awesome cool part: The Strings become a high “crunch chord” and grow in intensity. These strings represent the blazing sun ☀️ , pulsing in and out of the song to demonstrate its heat waves beating down into the desert.

Motifs: Hear that half-pitch stagger on the JAWS theme? That’s to build anxiety. This is a variation on the JAWS motif, which “struggles” to keep up with the tempo.

That’s all for now! I hope you enjoyed the music, and if you haven’t already be sure to check out Your Wish Is My Command, Available for free on Archive Of Our Own!

Have a great week! 💫
