I am in a call from Tertulia Authors. A representative from Kirkus is explaining the process where self-published authors pay for an independent review. The price is hefty! They have a literary magazine where the top books are featured and their synopsis reviews are read by libraries and book buyers. One person on the call I'd using the word “scam.” It appears they are a gateway to other lists.

If someone can comment and advise, I would appreciate it. I am exhausted and on a work deadline. My husband and his family don't believe that I am sick or that my chronic fatigue or arthritis is real. My husband insists on having his family over for lunch in about 24 hours. The house is messy and dirty. I have offered alternatives, but they're rejected. I am finding it difficult to cope.

I've been diagnosed with chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, and arthritis for years. Recently, over the last 5 months, the flare-ups have been significant. Usually, I can manage.

Hi, I am an Indie writer who will post the same question on the Claude Reddit. Is there an app or program for us regular people who use Claude as a writing coach? Last year, I completed a master’s degree and we had to run our papers through a university-sponsored app to check for anything that could be flagged as plagiarism. This was to protect ourselves as students even though we did not copy and we cited correctly. I am about to self-publish. Does anyone have thoughts or recommendation?

Has anyone tried Toastmanager, a free meeting management software program? Currently, I serve as the Vice President of Education for one club. Using the Free Toast Host website, I spend hours every week juggling and managing the agenda and planning. Here is a link to their features page. It sounds great! I struggle with making the meeting sign-up process easy for my fellow club members. I tried searching for social media or a YouTube video, but I have not had any success. I don't want to download anything to my computer without doing research. https://toastmanagers.com/blog/easy-speak-alternative

Does anyone know where and how to feed squirrels but not in my yard? I need a solution. I have been feeding squirrels in my suburban neighborhood for two years. There have been babies born this summer. Feeding them in the morning and late afternoon is a great joy. Unfortunately, my husband calls them vermin. They are brilliant little guys and gals. About a month ago, one of the babies was curious and followed me into the garage when I brought home groceries. My husband has found the same squirrel in the garage three times in the last two weeks because he leaves the door open. A few minutes ago, he was furious because he does not want squirrels near his vintage car and told me I could no long
