- Eyyyy!! Adam is awesome and I was coming to tag him that I just loaned out the print copy of another of his books for Project Phoenix! You best believe I’ll be adding this one to it.. you should buy a copy too, and one for someone you think would like it. 😁📚💨
- With my new book releasing TOMORROW, I need to extend a round of thanks to everyone who helped with this project. Because none of this would have been possible without them. First, thank you to my beta readers Maggie Hoopis, @raaymakersauthor.bsky.social, and @thechromabooks.bsky.social.
- Ooooo we got a shelf for books coming for Project Phoenix! 🐦🔥 Thank you so much to the authors who wanted to donate a copy! 💚 You make this a delight! I’m adding others to the buy list for later in the month! January was a ridiculous month.. but resilience is never a dump stat. 🦾🦿⚙️🙌🏻
- Reposted by Tailwind ProjectsFeel free to ask me if you don’t know any awesome authors. I collect them like seashells. You know, the husk of something that used to be full of life until the world made it write a story or be an alarming evening news report. Good books, though! 😁📚💨
- This is one of the February additions to Project Phoenix! Check out Mark's books! :D
- What reading sessions are complete without a lil furry critter to sit on your lap?! Took this handsome 1yr old pup to the groomers last week. 😁💚📚
- End of January updates! 🐦🔥 Project Phoenix is full steam ahead! Second round of (my) book buying in late Feb! There’s rumbles at work that maybe they’ll contribute too.. 🤞 🏡 Project Homecoming is THRILLED with the books that have come so far to this rural library full of heart. Thank you, 💚🫂.

- Thank you to those who’ve reached out to send books in for Project Phoenix! 🐦🔥. I’ve got a list started for my next round of buying also! I do need some indie author names for: Cozy Mystery Romance (most any subgenres) Police/Legal Thrillers Any ideas for those categories - jot them here!
- This is the first handwritten review from one of the Project Phoenix folks! I help patients from all backgrounds and education levels, but this guy LOVED the idea of ARC reviews and wanted to write his first draft! Shared with permission, he’s off to his next journey with books in hand!
- I have been wildly busy the last month but I have many awesome updates to share and the next round of book buying starts ending this month! I’m especially looking for - Sci-fi Fantasy Cozy mysteries Romance (anything not extremely explicit) Court room dramas Until then, here’s a Good Boy! 😁🙌🏻💚📚💨
- January Updates! Getting back into current things now that we’re through the holidays! Web dev! - I’ll be in touch! Artists! - If we’ve agreed on a $ amount, aiming for the end of the month. Big expenses are slain for Jan. 😉 Authors! - Separate post. 😁
- I start every year with 100, though it’s often higher. A good friend likes a friendly competition so I gave her a week headstart. 😉
- Post holiday chaos mayyyy be subsiding?! That would be amazing, then I can go back to book things. 😁📚💨
- It's nice working a job where I get to read most of the night.. anyone else happy with their reading this year?
- 🚨 ALERT! 🚨 Ooo a Bounty has crossed the gaze of Tailwind and gamers in general! Here’s my problem - detectivehawkgames.com/products/eld.... It’s a rare expansion for Elder Sign, held up by the tariffs on a real reprint. Find me a trustworthy link, and Tailwjnd will show up with prizes! 💨🏆🥇🙌🏻🎖️
- Happy New Years all! Here’s a dog! The pup sulked REAL hard that I wouldn’t share with him. Then I rubbed his belly and he went comatose. 😂 Not even a twitch. My lvl 1 Sleep spell being upcast at 3rd is formidable.
- Reposted by Tailwind ProjectsThis spoiled lil emotional support pup has figured out he can trust me. And I give the best scritches in 3 counties. 😉😂
- As I was asked - YES! Tailwind takes direct donations from interested authors. If you’d like to send me your books, I will put them to good use. I’ve held off on SAYING this because my intent is to 💰 PAY YOU 💰 If you insist on reckless and good hearted.. I guess I can’t throw stones. DM me 😉
- I’ll give you a sneak preview - FOUR of the seven first books have been finished! Incredibly positive reception from ALL. The men are discussing the books amongst themselves AND me. Each finished book was enjoyed! One of the men, learned what an ARC reviewer is.. and wrote a first draft. 🎉😁📚
- I know it’s been quiet, but WOW folks, things are advancing! Many more details next week when I get caught up! The authors involved in Project Phoenix, you made a real difference this holiday season. Thank you. 💚
- Feedback for the first 3 books borrowed so far, @williamjadams3.bsky.social “man, he uses a lot of words to describe other words. Once I grabbed onto that it was a lot easier. Can you look up these two words for me?”(Cruor, and feculent). He’s up to the market attack. 😉
- You know, Santa’s bag still has a few copies of @nicksnapeauthor.bsky.social ‘s first 3 ebooks in The Wrecking Squad! Open to any authors or readers who are interested! I’ve reviewed and loved them! 💚📚💨 Reply here!!
- I just thought you authors of the first entrants to Project Phoenix would like to hear the feedback from MY boss, after.. 6 hrs of handing the books out? 😉🤩📚💨
- I’ll break the suspense - @williamjadams3.bsky.social book was the first one asked for. That cover paying in spades! The second before I left for the weekend was @ctphipps.bsky.social . This guy didn’t even tell me prior he was a reader. My man locked eyes with “Cthulhu” and put a hand out. 😂
- And just like that, 7 self published EXCELLENT books from authors you should check out reach new readers! Well done, wordsmiths. 💚🫂📚 Bets on which one gets asked for first??
