News Of The WeekNews Of The Week
Welcome to the Books & Articles Weekly. It was a bit of a slow week. @denlillaapan and @plebpoet gave us the top posts, along with our fearless leader, @k00b. I think that’s a first for him in this territory.
As promised, I will begin trying out different incentives to improve the territory and distribute some sats. For now, submissions that make the top five posts of the week, AND that are original work not published elsewhere, and that are NOT just link posts, will be zapped 1000 sats.
I’ll see how this goes. I’m sure I will be changing the rules and increasing awards as I see how this plays out.
The top post can theoretically be awarded 1000 sats and receive the fee split.
Reminder: For the time being I will zap the top post half the rewards I receive about twenty four hours after the post, rather than split zaps into cowboy credits. I have forgotten until later in the week to zap the top post two weeks in a row. I apologize, and I won’t be offended by a gentle reminder.
Happy reading!
.
As always, please reply with suggestions and opinions on how to make this territory better.

Here’s an opportunity to get an advanced copy of the next 21 Futures anthology, and try out your skills as a reviewer. I have mine, and I hope to start reading it soon.
Does @denlillaapan need even more attention? Not really, but he tells a really good story, he publishes good stuff, and his enthusiasm shines through whenever he gets the opportunity to toot his own horn.

Thanks for including @denlillaapan's post. I had missed it in the firehouse of content he produces.
pff... yeah, yeah.
I mean, if I've already done the hard work of reading a book and then writing about it professionally, the least I could do is shove it into ~BooksAndArticles lol. I owe the Stackers that much!
I don't like the writing professionally part (and that's also what I can't really share here, yet), but I do enjoy the sharing with the stackers part.
tease.
Most of it is not of general interest and I often do manage to slip it in, as though I knew it from somewhere else. Basically, you're not missing much.
