The holiday is over. For people who work at a company, today is the first day back in the office. For me, it's another day of work with little to no pay. My Substack account is getting increasingly swarmed by bots that leave "like"s. I get four to nine bot visits per day, even on supposedly inaccessible paid content. There may have been one human among their number, though, because I gained a free subscriber the other day (from Nigeria, i.e., not trustworthy, especially since her photo looks like that of a busty American white girl).
The work on my movie-review book continues; I'm currently on Chapter 40-something, a bit more than a third of the way through the book's content. I have to stop after today, though, and concentrate on generating more Substack content through April so I can have breathing room to continue the book project as winter gives way to spring.
Tonight, though, I'm visiting my #3 Ajumma with cookies and a copy of my homeschooling book in tow—just some goofy gifts to give Ajumma since I haven't seen her since the September after my heart attack in 2024. Once I'm back home, I'll try to get as close to Chapter 50 as I can. Then, starting tomorrow: Substack it is, probably for a week or two.
Work, work, work.
Meanwhile, "Dana Smith" from Nigeria, thanks for subscribing.
That's a nice-looking bot!
