If you're planning to pick a rat costume to sell or wear at a cosplay event, think recognizability first. Remy from 'Ratatouille' is a perennial favorite — cute, family-friendly, and easy to stylize into either a plush, full-body suit or a simpler hoodie-with-tail combo. Fievel from 'An American Tail' sells well because kids and nostalgic adults both gravitate toward him: a little hat, a coat, and oversized ears go a long way. Villainous, theatrical rats like Ratigan from 'The Great Mouse Detective' or Splinter from 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' are great for folks who love drama and props.
Comfort and visibility matter at cons. Full mascot suits can be show-stoppers, but breathable fabrics, detachable heads, and clever cooling pockets make buyers happier. I often recommend offering both a budget-friendly partial option (mask, tail, gloves) and a premium full-suit to capture different buyers. Color palettes also influence sales — soft pastels and chibi styling have become trendy, so smaller, cuter designs for casual cosplayers move quickly.
Personally, I like seeing a mix of classic movie rats and fresh reinterpretations. If I had a table, I'd showcase a few beloved film rats, a stylized kawaii rat, and a rugged post-apocalyptic rodent to cover the crowd's moods. That mix tends to get people lingering and buying, which always feels great.

The weekly rotation at the 'Eververse' in 'Destiny 2' is like a tiny holiday every Tuesday for me — I check in just to see what silly emote or gorgeous ship got dusted off this time.
Usually what I find are cosmetic staples: emotes (dance moves, gestures, silly actions), armor ornaments that change the look of helmets, chests and class items, shaders to recolor gear, ghost shells, ships, and sparrows. There are also transmat effects and finishers sprinkled in, and during seasonal events you'll see themed sets (Halloween, Solstice, Dawning) show up. Some weeks a rare-looking ornament or a flashy emote is in the Featured or Spotlight slot, and sometimes older goodies get reissued.
You pay with either Silver (real-money currency) or Bright Dust (in-game currency earned from seasonal content and Eververse drops). The store refreshes each weekly reset, and there’s a mix of always-available items, rotating spotlight pieces, and limited-event goods. I love how it keeps my collection game fresh — sometimes I buy on impulse, sometimes I wait for a reissue, but either way it’s an excuse to log in and admire the cosmetics.

If you're hunting for a paperback of 'joystick hausa novel complete', I usually start with the big marketplaces because they aggregate both new and used copies and often carry regional sellers. Amazon (including the UK and US sites) is a must-check: sometimes independent Nigerian sellers list paperbacks there, or the book might be available via Amazon Marketplace sellers or Amazon's own paperback listings. eBay is another place I've found surprising gems — used copies, international sellers, even rare prints. For less global but very relevant options, Jumia and Konga in Nigeria are worth searching; they often host local bookstores and sellers who list Hausa-language paperbacks.
If the mainstream stores come up empty, I go deeper: Bookfinder and AbeBooks crawl smaller sellers and secondhand shops worldwide, so you'll sometimes find diaspora sellers shipping from the UK or the US. Facebook Marketplace and local buy-and-sell groups (especially Nigerian or Hausa community groups) can be goldmines — people sell extra copies or prints there. I also recommend checking author pages or publisher pages on social media; many Hausa-language authors sell print runs directly or can point you to regional vendors. Libraries and WorldCat can show which libraries hold a copy, and that can lead you to interlibrary loan options or to discover the publisher's details.
Last tips from my own hunt: always note the ISBN if you can find it, since searching by ISBN filters out incorrect editions. Ask sellers for photos of the cover/spine to confirm the edition reads 'complete' if that matters to you. If the title is self-published or small-press, print-on-demand services like Lulu or local Nigerian print shops sometimes offer paperback runs if you contact the rights holder. Between the big international marketplaces, Nigerian platforms like Jumia/Konga, and community channels (Facebook groups, WhatsApp book circles), I've tracked down tricky regional titles before — and it's satisfying when a paperback finally arrives with that familiar smell of fresh pages.

Soulmate bl fiction has gained incredible popularity over the years, and honestly, so many authors have made their mark in this genre! One of my go-to favorites is Guess Who, who captivates with a unique blend of romance and deep emotional connections. Their characters are beautifully flawed, and the way they navigate their journeys to find each other is just magic. It’s like reading your own love story through a lens of beautiful prose and relatable struggles. Another author I can't stop raving about is S. Ellis. Their works, often featuring supernatural elements, add an extra layer of intrigue to the soulmate trope. I adore how they intertwine fated love with rich backstories, giving us not just characters but entire worlds to get lost in.
Moreover, there’s also the brilliant A. R. T. Their stories tend to dive into societal expectations and personal identity, making the love stories feel even more profound and relevant. Each word they write feels like a warm hug, and their talent for building the tension between characters makes the eventual union super satisfying. I remember the first time I picked up 'Whispers of the Heart' – I was hooked from page one! Then there’s also the up-and-coming talent, Luna Keena. They have a refreshing take on the soulmate concept, weaving in elements of humor and light-heartedness without compromising on the deeper emotional beats we crave. Their latest work, 'Bound by Fate', really took me on an emotional rollercoaster, and I loved every second of it!
In this diverse landscape of authors, it’s fascinating to see how each one interprets soul mate relationships differently, bringing in aspects of culture, personal struggles, and the beauty of love in their distinct styles. I think the magic of this genre is that it reflects us in so many ways, each story offering a different perspective on finding that special someone. It’s definitely a space ripe for exploration, and I can’t wait to see who else will emerge as a voice in soulmate bl fiction!

Lately I've been tracing how soul boom quietly rewired modern R&B and it still blows my mind how many producers borrowed its heartbeat. The biggest change was tonal: producers started chasing warmth over clinical perfection. That meant tape saturation, spring and plate reverbs, fat analog compressors, and deliberately imperfect drum takes. Instead of pristine quantized drums, there are ghost snares, humanized swing, and that tiny timing nudge on the snare that makes the pocket breathe. Melodic choices shifted too — extended jazz chords, chromatic passing tones, and call-and-response vocal lines became staples, pulling modern tracks closer to vintage soul and gospel traditions.
Arrangement and workflow transformed as well. Where mid-2010s R&B often flattened into loop-based structures, the soul boom era reintroduced dynamic builds, live overdubs, and space for instrumental callbacks. Producers learned to mix with storytelling in mind: automation on the hi-hat for tension, band-style comping for verses, intimate lead vox in the bridge. Technically, sampling guts were traded for multi-mic live sessions in small rooms, but sample-based techniques persisted in a hybrid form — chopped organ stabs sitting beside live horns, vinyl crackle layered under pristine vocals.
On a personal level, this shift made me want to record more people rather than just program more sounds. It sent me back to learning mic placement, comping harmonies, and finding singers who can bend notes like old records do. The result is modern R&B that feels both new and sincerely rooted, and I love that it nudged the scene toward music that prioritizes groove, texture, and human touch over slick perfection.

If you want to sell Leon Kennedy fan art online, there are a bunch of places I’ve used or seen other artists use — each with its own vibe and risk profile. Popular print-on-demand marketplaces like Redbubble, Society6, TeePublic and Zazzle let you upload art and they handle printing, shipping and customer service. ArtStation and DeviantArt also let artists sell prints or digital downloads directly; they feel a bit more “artist-first” and attract collectors who appreciate original-style work. For direct sales you can use Etsy for physical prints and merchandise or Gumroad and Ko-fi for digital downloads and commissions. If you're into storefronts, Big Cartel or Shopify paired with Printful/Printify gives more control over branding and pricing.
Keep in mind that Leon is a Capcom character from 'Resident Evil', so platforms may remove listings after IP complaints. To reduce the chance of takedown, I try to heavily stylize pieces, avoid using official logos or in-game art as a base, and clearly present items as fan art. Selling original hand-drawn prints or limited runs sometimes gets more leniency than mass-produced shirts with very faithful recreations. Conventions and local comic shops are also great for selling in person — no platform moderation and you meet fans directly.
Personally, I mix a few of these: Redbubble for casual merch, Etsy for nicer prints and commissions, and conventions for originals. It’s a balance between reach and control, and being ready for the occasional copyright notice is part of the game — but I still get a thrill when someone buys a Leon print at a con.

That hook that sticks in your head? It wasn’t Rihanna or Eminem alone — Bebe Rexha actually penned the chorus that became the centerpiece of 'The Monster'. I’ve dug through interviews and write-up threads over the years, and the story that stuck with me is that Bebe wrote and demoed the melodic hook originally for herself. That demo ended up in the hands of the team working with Eminem, and the part was adapted into the version we know, with Rihanna delivering the final vocal.
Eminem wrote his verses, of course, and the song’s final credits list multiple contributors, but Bebe Rexha is widely credited as the writer of the chorus. It’s one of those neat behind-the-scenes music industry moments where a songwriter’s demo becomes the emotional core of a hit. I still get chills hearing Rihanna sing that hook live — it’s a clever bit of songwriting and collaboration that helped make 'The Monster' so memorable.

I get pretty excited talking about this because it's one of those 'you absolutely can, but mind the details' situations. From my experience, authors can definitely sell audiobooks through upstream distribution platforms — there are two common routes: going through a retailer-specific service that may ask for exclusivity, or using an aggregator that pushes your files out to many stores and libraries. I’ve personally used both kinds, and each has trade-offs. Exclusive deals often simplify marketing and sometimes bump your royalties or promotional support, while wide distribution via aggregators like Findaway or similar services usually gives you the broadest reach into retailers, library suppliers, and international storefronts.
Before you hand over any files, the non-glamorous legal stuff matters: you must own or control the audio rights for the book, and you need to know whether any prior contracts (publisher deals, agents) limit your options. Production choices also affect distribution — you can narrate it yourself, hire a narrator/pro engineer, or do a royalty-share with a talent. Platforms differ in payment cadence, fee structures, and royalty splits, and some require strict audio specs and cover art formatting. I learned to always read the distribution list carefully (which stores and library services they actually reach) and how they handle returns and refunds.
If I had to sum up practical steps: confirm audio rights, decide on narration and budget, compare distributors’ reach and terms, prepare files to spec, upload metadata and samples, then promote the launch. I’ve watched a title grow slowly through library channels after choosing a wide distributor, and it felt rewarding to hear people discover the story in spoken form — a whole new audience.
