Hi everyone. I'm back! Been getting on with my film script. Still drafting that, but am still wishing to link up with like minded people. I need to change the images on my Facebook profile and page. Thought I'd see if I could request some help from someone here?
Also, you were absolutely right about that fiverr expert, which is why I am turning to you folks as you obviously know what you are talking about. The 'expert' did set up a tumblr account for me, and somehow has deactivated my Wordpress blog. Not sure how to get it back so I can use that for my blog posts. Can anyone help me on these matters? Can supply passwords etc if needing to...?

I think you will link with 'like minded people' no matter what images are presented on Facebook.
Don't believe that Facebook will determine your destiny as a writer! Your product will!!
Don't overthink it, just engage with people. As with real life you can't sit at home and draw people to you by magic, you need to reach out to them.
Not buying images, downloading them off the internet. And due to disability cannot get out, so a camera is of no use to me...
There are sites that provide royalty free images, but you need to study their terms and conditions.
You probably have to unlink the blog via the settings in tumblr. Try googling the question.
And, yep, good idea to Google that question. Will give that a bash. Thanks again..
There is a good site for royalty-free images. It was actually a member of this forum who tipped me off about it some months ago. See:

Quite simple to download, although you might have to crop or reduce for Facebook content.
Just typed in 'cat drinking', but only one page of results (including wild cats!):

If you type in 'cat', you'll get loads of results...
I wonder if your views might be better received if you wrote as a left-wing feminist working class writer, in lieu of a 'left wing feminist working class lesbian'. Any necessary references to sexual orientation will be deduced from your writing, rather than define yourself upfront with the possible consequence of losing readership.
Just a respectful offering.
Just be you. If what you write is interesting, people will be interested, even if they're not left wing feminist working class lesbians.
And therein lies a question: To what end must we go to appeal to an audience? Maintain our own ideals and standards, or compromise them to benefit a wider readership?
Sure, there is a fine balance, but it's certainly an interesting conundrum!!
Can anyone suggest a tool or software that I can use to reduce my blog posts so that they can be linked onto my twitter account?
Does anyone have the website address for Canvas, for creating images?
I'd really appreciate it if someone could provide me with answers to these questions, please.
Doesn't bother me at all
On mine I have twitter and Facebook icons after the post, which would allow anyone to share them if they wished and I use these myself.
