The ebook (.epub or pdf) is for free on the GitHub: https://github.com/jdriselvato/FFmpeg-For-Beginners-Ebook/tr...

In 2020 I wrote a book on FFmpeg after going through the entire FFmpeg documentation. I wanted to learn FFmpeg inside and out by actually using it to convert audio/video based on w…

You have a great humorist writing style. I enjoyed the read and it just makes me want one even more. I just went to an Apple Store to demo the Vision Pro and walked out feeling lik…

At the moment we're trying to get authors on the platform to build up the "marketplace" (although we're not a traditional marketplace of selling books). The great thing about autho…

I love the concept of Notebook.ai, thanks for sharing that. When I was writing my first fantasy novel I was messing around with Notion templates (almost a local wiki in a sense) ju…

Good question. We're not a marketplace just like NaNoWriMo isn't a marketplace. As an author you build an author profile (like any other social media) and link directly to where pe…

Right now I'm in the middle of the chicken and the egg problem where we don't have enough authors cataloging their publications and b/c of that obviously readers are not interested…

I love NaNoWriMo and have written and won every year since 2019. My only issue is once the month is complete, no one cares about your novel or that you finished it. So when I got l…

https://penpinery.com At its core it's NaNoWriMo but I was frustrated with the limited use of NaNo after completing a novel. So this adds the social aspect found in GoodReads + the…
