Happy Wednesday, Luddites. 😉

If anyone is making a block list of anti-AI creatives who hate slop and think AI-users are worthless hacks, feel free to add me to it.

I've been so productive today, even though I've had a headache since I woke up. I deserve a little treat.

Hello, I'm a horror writer. Would love to be included. 🫶🏻

A thing about me is that I hate cooking.

Check ebay later. People who get the crate sell off things they don't want. It's a good way to find one or two items without buying the whole box.

And as always, the best place to find me is Instagram, but please feel free to follow me here or on Tumblr. 🫶🏻

If you were personally affected by Hedone Books/Dark Lit Press and CM's latest behavior, I want to talk to you. It can be on background or off the record, but I want to hear your story. DM's are open.

Of course it's hard to miss the fact that Hedone Books has shut down, leaving authors completely screwed over.

If you're one of their authors please feel free to reach out as Cloaked Press, LLC will be willing to look at books and hopefully offer new homes.

Hedone was run by perpetual non-payer Caitlin Marceau. Avoid this editor when they inevitably launch their next project.

To all Hedone authors affected, you have my sympathies and I’m sorry this is happening to you.

Being offline for a few days at a time is good for you.

Do the readers who want chapter titles understand how hard it is to think of ONE title, for the book?

Another AEW show? OMG yay! Have fun!

If anyone needs me, I'll be preparing for the snow/ice we'll be getting this weekend that may or may not take down the whole TX grid. Ted Cruz has been seen at the airport, which is not a good sign for the rest of us.

Exactly right.
