So some of you may not know but I actually have a YouTube channel where I review #Sci-Fi and #Fantasy novels! Been on a huge #LitRPG and #ProgressionFantasy kick recently and reviewed To Flail Against Infinity, the first book in The Stargazer's War. Full review on YT - Link in Bio!
my cat just meowed at me and I said “mhm” as if pretending to listen

My contracts with my publishers don't allow them or me to use AI for anything, and that's the way I want it. Besides all of the obvious issues, I write because I get *pleasure* out of it--and solace and understanding and all kinds of other benefits. I am not "outsourcing" any of that.
Anne Oeldorf-Hirsch@anneo.bsky.social · 2y agoIs anyone else just *not interested* in using AI for their writing? All accuracy and morality aside, I just don't want to. I want every last word I put on a page to have flowed out from my own body. Maybe I'm romanticizing it, but I just can't see it any other way.
I love starting new writing projects, but I struggle to finish anyth

if I was in a high fantasy book i'd be corrupted by the allure and intrigue of the forbidden magic objects and hot villain so quickly you have no idea
Query anxiety is BAD today. How do my other #amquerying folks deal with it? Do you just eat drywall and rattle the bars of your cage? Is there such thing as a healthy coping strategy in this situation??? 😂
Querying is so weird. You spend months making up little guys and putting them in dangerous situations and making them kiss. Then you send a business letter about it.
