Headache of the morning. Will a reader who sees “AF” on a page know that it means Africa and not “as f—-?”

Africa wouldn't be my first thought...Adult Fiction would be.

If I opened The Ink Black Heart on my Libby app it would likely tell me the book is 5,000 pages.

More than the 1024 pages Amazon books states it is.

My Kindle gives percentages, and "locations." Right now, I'm at 35% and location # 6781 of 19107.

The Libby count is so outrageous that I only use the percentage to determine where I am in the book.

Jane · « **Reply #97 on:** March 16, 2023, 01:17:15 PM »

Interestingly, Goodreads says "Ink" is 1408 pages. Doing a search I have seen a variety of page numbers-odd they aren't all the same.

I normally use Goodreads for my book count. So far, except now Libby, my reading apps have been fairly close.

As for the equivalent number of pages for the physical book, I got that information from Amazon's page for the hardback edition.

Nook also agreed with your count.

The most annoying change between my Overdrive app & Libby is that the photos on Libby look like negatives. Has anyone else using Libby noticed this problem?

I wonder if that's a setting. Some apps have that. I switched my Twitter app to have the dark background with white letters.

I always read with a dark background and white letters. I haven't seen anything to adjust the page setting. It is worth double checking if I can do that.

Yes, I think Amazon took away the free option because they don't get anything that way. Of course, they DO get Prime memberships that way, but you can't argue with Amazon. But you don't have to be a Prime member to watch our series - it's just we have no option not to charge and we've chosen the cheapest option there is.

I'm also looking into other platforms - we're not exclusive to Amazon. I found a company people love that's much like CD Baby in that they make it available to every streaming service, should that streaming service care to have it. I can also offer it to B'way World but I really cannot abide the design of that site - it's almost impossible to navigate and find stuff.

How about Broadway HD?

They're a bit of an expensive subscription, but they've got loads of musical theater, once you're in.

I finished No. 8 today. Tomorrow morning I will look it over, make any adjustments, and go on to No.9.

I don't understand a single thing about TikTok, but I think I managed to "follow" samitheseries.

While I was out carrying the banner, I got nabbed for a partial gig - playing the piano book for two orchestra rehearsals and one performance on INTO THE WOODS at Marist College in Poughkeepsie. They've had a terrible time getting a player for that. I would have taken the whole thing right away when offered if I hadn't have conflicts. The person they got to do "most" of it still can't do it all, but I can do those three dates. So that's good.

I'll be there for it on Amazon Prime.

I have no knowledge of, and no desire for having an account at, either Instagram or TikTok, so the Prime will be fine for me.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #114 on:** March 16, 2023, 02:36:28 PM »

I hope it comes with a Prime Rib.

BK, will the series ever be released on DVD or Blu-ray?

George · « **Reply #117 on:** March 16, 2023, 02:57:22 PM »

Or what about a soundtrack CD? Is that going to be an option??
