I remember this story, about the baby born up on a tree, and I wonder if such will become a common story due to the climate crisis. "Rosita Salvador: 'Miracle baby' born in a tree above Mozambique floodwaters dies aged 25"

Rosita Salvador: 'Miracle baby' born in a tree above Mozambique floodwaters dies aged 25

Rosita Salvador Mabuiango's mother was sheltering for days before giving birth perched above the water.

Someone was sent to the airport to receive me, but he was expecting a woman, so when I see a person holding a sign with my name, I walk up to them and they are like. "No. Not you. I'm waiting for a woman." 😅 I see the sign has Ms Dilman Dila on it. I laugh. They make a call, then apologise for it. But I'm laughing and saying not to worry.

In Sharjah, UAE, for a book festival this week. Looking forward to some rest after working with bo play throughout the holidays until last night, and get to be a tourist (and talking about books!)

Has anyone used BookFunnnel? Any pros or cons? I'm planning to start self-publishing this year so exploring the tools/platforms people use. Any tips? Some that I'm already investigating are Ingram, Draft2Digital, and Book Sirens. Would appreciate other pointers. #writing #writingcommunity
