IMPACT: that company that was offering to buy books for AI companies’ training data — and probably destroy them in the process — says it will no longer offer this service following 404 Media’s exposure of it www.404media.co/ai-company-t...

Company Offering Printed Books to Train AI Stops After 404 Media Coverage

Citing backlash, ISBNdb removed its webpages about training AI, denied ever buying, scanning, or selling a book for AI training, and said the site was a "test of market interest."

Fiction projects in progress have been updated at ursineunder.world/fiction/ for those interested. Redlines finished for Beasts & Brutality last night. Taking a break from Mundia to begin a new story: “Release Notes on HummingNet 1.0.” If you don't cry by the end of it, I've failed as an author.

I am extremely pleased to announce that one of my stories, "Hive Mindset," has been accepted for publication in Plott Hound magazine! It's about technology and bugs. No, not those kinds of bugs! Well, come to think of it... yes. It's about those kinds of bugs, too.

Release the Hounds!

I just had a story accepted at Plott Hound, and I'm over the moon about it! Although I've scored some recent wins, I'm still an authorial cub. Every success feels like winning the lottery. Ad astra per aspera, baby. No spoilers here, but I hope you're not squeamish about bugs....

I'm delighted to have a story featured in the Anthrocon conbook this year (thanks @nenekiribookwyrm.bsky.social for the image) Here's a little more about it - lupestripe.com/2026/07/02/h... If you're at Anthrocon, the conbook looks stunning so take a look if you can #FurryWriting #FurryLit

My best friend and I tried some... you know... "gay stuff," and when we got caught, I ran off and abandoned him. I know he's going to get into a lot of trouble, and he might even be exiled, but I just can't face the humiliation and fear that goes with a tribunal! AITA?

My book follows three characters from alternating viewpoints, so... [Holten, Deer] The author is a sadistic bastard who reminds me of my father. But I like the bear! [A'dann, Bear] Although the book broke my heart, I did like the deer character. We need to see more of him! [Nothing, Rat] Ouch.

The head of some archaic organization that used to hide Nazi gold and shit released a statement today about needing writers. I can see why. The continuity in their fiction is appalling. Like, keep consistent notes, my dudes. They also desperately need strong female and gay protagonists.
