Happy #Wednesday100! Here’s Season 5 era Bree and Fergus, getting to know each other better by discussing their parents. Not where I imagined ending up when Bree started thinking about why J and C don’t play chess together, but I’m happy with the result!
Every novelist, agent, professor, editor, & imprint, trad & indie, should read this. When I talk about the disconnect between academia & publishing, this is what I mean. LLMs do not belong in the writing process OR classroom. #EduSky @ecniumata.bsky.social erinniumata.substack.com/p/the-25-mil...

I miss Godspeed You! Booksky Emperor, so I quickly threw together a list of active readers from my mutuals. I’ll try to add and update this regularly, but as I’m a new mama, my time is at the whim of Small Lady. 📚💙 go.bsky.app/3LTV3DH
I enjoyed both main characters w/their Odd Couple chemistry & enjoyed Alistair's wild streak. This would have been a 4.5 star read but the phrases "smells like" & "tastes like" were overused to the point that I was keeping count! It distracted from the fun dynamic of the story. 4⭐️ #BookSky 🌈📚💙

Hey #booksky 💙📚, sometimes #horror conventions are a bust. This is one of those times. Can’t sell books if there’s almost nobody attending. Assuage my financial wounds? Consider picking up a book from my Orphan Island Trilogy: #horrorbooks www.amazon.com/dp/B0H594Z5X...
As we seem to be talking about AI again... I wrote this last year. It's about why I don't use generative AI (for stories or for covers, etc.) but also why I think you're doing yourself a disservice as a creative if you do. You deserve better, quite frankly.
