To make book genre discourse even more intolerable, I propose that there should be hard differences between "Cosy Fiction" and "Cozy Fiction" that nobody can agree on
It’s not a ‘ridiculous position’ to say I won’t support anyone using generative AI. I don’t care if it’s ’only a little’. It taints them and their product. To use a classic: here, they’ve made a sandwich with only a little bit of shit smeared inside. Still want to eat it?
I've gotten three review requests this week for books that the "author" has proudly said they use AI in. Don't do this. If you use AI in your book, I WON'T READ IT. I read and shout about real books made by real people. #booksky #bookblogger

Another reminder to just get tf off of Twitter/X Don't do it for me, do it for your brain.
This is 100% why people who've been on X for years now get so weirdly bummed out by Bluesky or any other site. It isn't that bsky is a 'bubble', it's that being a shithead in the replies gets you an immediate nuclear-block, rather than immediately rewarded with Skinner-box treats

Don’t fear the rewrite. No, I don’t mean edits. I don’t mean heavy edits either. I mean rewrite. You’ve written it once, you can write it again. No fear. #amwriting #writingcommunity #writerslife #writerscommunity

I understand why after thinking about it for a few seconds, but it still feels moderately bizarre to be in a world where we might need to block people on a book logging app
Hm. Can't have a character touch something tentatively if they're doing it with a tentacle. That just doesn't work. #AmWritingSciFi
If I ever die, please don't harvest anything from the 925 Universe for vaguely inspirational-sounding quotes
humans should come with soundboards built in because sometimes the only truly appropriate reaction to a thing is the over the top mario 64 ‘whaow’ sfx
2nd and Charles employee really doing me a solid. This is so cool omg. Also, my cover looks so different from the others. It's pretty unique, which I thought was going to hinder the sales. But I've gotten positive feedback on it!
