Disconnected but not bothered

 Facebook ban

Hackers

I am still blocked on Facebook, that is not a thing which concerns me.

My Signal account got hacked last year, again it is nothing I am concered about. For some reason I am blocked on Telegram, again it is not a thing to concern me as I rarely used the site.

I may restart both my Instagram, and Zangi accounts, though Zangi atracted young ladies asking for money, ot marriage

Life without Facebook

 A blog without Facebook

The Death of my blog

I won't pull my punches, the ban by Facebook which began in February has killed my blog.

Readers have dropped from 100 a day to below 30, and posts rarely get more than 5 readers.

On a personal level, the ban made little impact, as the only person I was in contact with, outside my family was my late friend, Julia Petrakis, who lived in Seattle; she passed away not long after my wife in January, 2025. I stay in contact with my family via WhatsApp.

Trying to find my groove again

  I am going to try to write again

Free short stories

I am going to attempt to enlarge on some of the short stories I have started.

I have many stories to extend, in many genres, hopefully these will pass the hours, and limit the time I can think of my late wife which I fear could lead to depression if I don't attempt a release.

I am hoping my Facebook ban has expired, if for no reason other than FB raised the blog readers.

Acceptance is the key

  Fewer readers

Alan Place - The Writer

It was ot easy, but I have to accept this blog will have fewer readers by 50% since the Facebook ban. This situation cannot be reversed, if the ban is lifted in five months, I am not creating a new profile, or recoering my old profile on the site.

My blog readers were falling before this ban, all I hope for is a slight increase, not that I think it will happen as I rarely post about a trend.

 Facebook Ban Again

                                                                I am not Worried 

Today, I got my Facebook account blocked for linking to a site which is selling items online.

I am not worried, the only contacts I have thre, are my family, and we're in a WhatsApp group.

The blog has never had any readers on FB, so I have nothing to lose.

Facebook Marketplace

 Facebook ban

eBay Bargains

I have transgressed the rules of Facebook (again).

WHAT A JOKE!!!

Apparently, I am not permitted to ask for money for goods for sale, on Facebook Marketplace, what is the point of a market, if you cannot sell.

I am not bothered, I am happy selling on eBay.
