I haven't had the time to write in days. Usually I lose focus when that happens. But since I heard about Ellipsus, I'm excited and I think about my story, and world building, and notes. I keep circling back to thoughts that I can't put in a document. Which is good for me, because it's rooted now.

People act like it’s impossible to do the right thing and succeed but its actually pretty easy to do it and have everyone love you and you can even be a goofy silly guy and do it

Free idea for anyone who wants it: crime/noir setting; Jac le Squawk. A petty thief who has ratted out tons of partners in crime when he inevitably gets caught. He always plea bargains his way out of harm. The one man he'll never speak of-his oldest friend and the suspect in a high stakes murder.

Fellow authors: without any context, what's the first line of your current WIP? WIP1: A cold wind blew around the cabin. WIP2: They pull you in with the alluring promise of safety. WIP3: I first got the idea after the battle with the Necromancer. WIP4: Marisol needed the money from the gig.

WIP1: Esther was not in the habit of repeating herself. WIP2: Ixia knew its land's gods and ghosts. The Bear Queen Circe would be its first demon. WIP3: The raccoons of E. Cherry and N. Mercer Lanes had seen some shit.

A few years ago I got into bujo. One of the notebooks I've purchased(haven't used yet, but it's approaching rotation) was from Scribbles That Matter. So I get emails from them. Not in the sales pitch variety, but meaningful advice. The most recent email was about changing your perspective.

I wrote Roomba over a year ago and y'all loved it. It's still free on itch AND it even has a free audiobook version. I hope you continue to love my plucky optimistic little robot vacuum 🤖

New: Researchers have quantified how easy AI search is to manipulate. Just 13 words buried in a random Reddit comment can poison AI search results. They suggest this is not easy to stop: "The way you can attack these systems is so much dumber than you think it is" www.404media.co/it-is-trivia...

It Is Trivially Easy to Use Reddit to Manipulate AI Search, Research Suggests

"We show that a tiny snippet—just 13 words—of retrieved text on a UGC website like Reddit, Wikipedia, Quora, or Facebook can change AI agents to output spam / scam content pretty consistently."
