Despite the eleventh-century economic boom, the Song dynasty's endless war against the Khitans on the northern frontier was a constant financial drain and the emperors kept looking for new ways to pay their bills. Consequently, when in 1115 the "Wild Jurchens" of Manchuria offered to help fight the Khitans, Emperor Huizong eagerly accepted (Figure 8.2).
Only in 1141 did a frontier settle down between the Jurchens, now ruling northern China, and a much-reduced Song state based at Hangzhou.*
*Historians normal divide the Song period into the Northern Song phase (960-1127), when the dynasty ruled most of China from Kaifeng, and a Southern Song phase (1127-1279), when it ruled only southern China from Hangzhou.

I can debunk the fuck out of this because I have been posting a story a day, every day, since early 2013. My audience engagement has been minimal at best.
I went to the trouble of doing an audio podcast where I read some of those stories, released once a week, until the 'Rona destroyed my ability to can.
I've posted serialised versions of an alpha draft of a book I'm writing... and guess what? NOTHING.
Oh, and some of those aforementioned daily stories turned into a novel of its own... and I don't get very many buyers or any kind comments about it.
I've been trying very hard to have a writing career by all the means I have that fit my budget [$0 BTW] since 2013. Including the one that insists the world will notice you're doing a thing if you do it for ten years.
I'd like to have an audience. I'd like to have an income. I'd really like both. So what am I doing wrong that gets me nothing and nowhere? Where can I find my like-minded peers?
I really want to know where they are. They haven't found me. How can I find them?
YOU! 🫵 ONLINE INDIE AUTHOR!
Have you considered simply posting your story online for free?
If you widen your scope of awareness beyond the realm of books, most natively online creators (your favourite YouTubers and podcasters, webcomics, Homestuck, etc.) have something they initially made for free.
When you publish a book, you’re left sitting there waiting and fretting, you see purchases and a few reviews, but you don’t get a lot of reader reaction.
Whereas, if you were to post a chapter at a time online for free, you can see people keeping up with it, you get live reactions, it’s a much more interactive, more communal experience.
If your background is fanfiction, you already have experience doing this!
If you’re expecting a handful of sales per month and that income isn’t vital to you, you might be trading the lion’s share of the enjoyment of writing for the price of a few cups of coffee.
If you have a serious commitment to making writing your career and your source of income, this post isn’t about you. I’m talking to those who look into yourselves and find your goal is to have your writing read and shared, and to participate in a community of like-minded peers
I think online writing communities would be so much healthier if there was more separation between hobby and commercial writing, and authors didn’t feel pressured to go professional.
People are taking a risk by reading your book, gambling on the time and effort they put in being worthwhile, and that risk becomes way lower when the book is free.
#it's a nice dream OP#but people gotta eat#pay the bills#giving out hard work for free doesn't do what you think#in my case it just gets me in trouble when I can't post

maybe never forgive. but things are different now. so we'll use maybe.
#my version of a happy ending au#mouthwashing#captain curly#mouthwashing anya#anya#curly#my art#considering this game takes place in a hellscape#i imagine one of the other horrifying angles for anya was that she might not even have the rights to abort the wound#so i like to think. curly. thinking he's going to die anyway. just takes all of the medical bills from his crew#because if he lives then he'll spend his life paying it all off#and if he dies. then he takes the burden with him#but him and anya are horrible horrible parallels now. and they cant NOT care about each other#he'll turn himself into the horse. he'll be the beast of burden. anything he said. anything#and for once he actually means it.

My new favorite excuse for not jumping on new trends or bandwagons is 'I'm 30.' No more explanation needed because anyone under 30 just thinks I'm old and everyone over 30 understands implicitly
#the thing is I'm not too old but i have also lived long enough to know how shortlived some trends are#it's called 'sometimes having a job and paying bills puts things into perspective'

I'm literally so obsessed with the fact that Shang Qinghua and Shen Qingqiu married the most extreme versions of each other
like, I'm pretty sure that people have already brought this up, but Shang Qinghua and Luo Binghe have the same, "I'm just a little guy, you wouldn't hurt a little guy, would you?" pathetic, pitiful, crybaby aura (even though Binghe is a lot more selective with it lol)
and Shen Qingqiu and Mobei-Jun are icy beauty, rich, dense, spoiled brats that both go insane over (1) pitiful hamster man (for different reasons, but still)
I feel like if they didn't fucking die and get transmigrated, they could've had a cute assholes to assholes but lovers arc :<
#svsss#shang qinghua#shen qingqiu#moshang#bingqiu#blorbo#cumplane#ily shang qinghua 💞#he could have been a B tier sugar baby#instead of pimping himself out he'd pimp out his writing lol#not that he wouldn't mind 👀#for his Shen-gege♡#or maybe his Shen-didi would be funnier#shen yuan would be oblivious to the homoeroticism ofc#“why does everyone think we're fucking?” he would ask#while also paying for Shang Qinghua's bills#and living together#and loudly arguing over sex acts in public#and making out every time they get drunk#and and and#shen yuan: professional kissing the homie goodnight-er#just bros being bros

sometimes i randomly remember how insane maggie stiefvater was for making ronan lynch—a man that can create reality—a man of god, when he himself is a god of a man. then to take this man and have him be not only in love with, but a literal soulmate of a man named adam. parrish. adam parrish. who, mind you, lives above ronan's very own place of worship. and is the namesake of the first of mankind that the bible says god made from the literal dust of the ground (adam parrish: comes from nothing, hair "dusty" in color) and appoints him to care for the garden of eden (adam parrish: sacrifices himself to ronan's sentient forest). then has adam viewing ronan as a god and ronan saying "maybe he dreamt (created)" adam???? like who just fucking writes that and goes about their life?
#if i think about them too long i start going actually insane#maggie pay for my therapy bills please#me and my ignored religious trauma are literally have never been able to handle it#the raven cycle#pynch#ronan lynch#adam parrish#and the fact that i read the series pretty soon after i realized that pretending i believed in god was doing more harm than good and left#i was still a kid and had very bad undiagnosed ocd that made my implusive thoughts surrounding hell and eternal damnation and the end days#and it terrified me so much as a queer trans kid to realize i didnt believe but still had thoughts of that in my head and then to read this#series like a year or 2 later was brain altering for me#anyways where was i going with this#ahahahha#im having a moment#adam's last name is pretty self explanatory too like....miss girl

#leah is still her legal name#her mom helps w us having a phone at all and can sometimes help but never a full months rent help so thats def the most pressing matter#but we already paid august rent and we have a month so we'll probably be fine#actually still havent paid utilities :/#i was wondering if more donations would happen since the surgery date and apparently not#got three the day of and two the day before but we're at 70 rn after all the gas of dropping me off and visiting twice or smth.#idk. stupid van. she should be taking public transit but i get why she doesnt want to. barely anyone masks on public transit here anymore :/#edit update: collies mom helped us pay utilities for last month which was mostly the electricity bill. water bill comes every 3 months#so i guess we'll see how much that is.

Don't want to insult this person but. Again. I literally live in Argentina.
#cosas mias#I didn't even talk about a revolution because that's a whole other topic to cover#I just said hey maybe start questioning your imperial death machine. maybe get a little angrier about it?#sorry you have bills to pay retirees here do too and they still confront the police on the street when needed#pongan un poco más de huevos
