Honestly, the #PublishingIndustry has had a book-writing #AI #chatbot for ages. It's called James Patterson.

Bandcamp’s Mission and Our Approach to Generative AI We’re articulating our approach to generative AI so musicians can keep making music and fans can trust the music they find on Bandcamp.

Discovering that #Bandcamp is banning #AI-generated #music gave me cause for some celebration: blog.bandcamp.com/2026/01/13/k...

Starting early on my #NewYearsResolution: unsubscribe from everything.

Honored to have my #shortstory "The Sudden Malady" published in this issue! Beautiful typesetting, @exactingclam.bsky.social. The whole issue is amazing.

I intend to use em-dashes as I always have in my #writing. I won't change anything about my creative process or grammar just because #AI is copying that grammar. The purpose of #art has always been about the process, the challenge, the effort. AI has nothing to offer me and nothing to take from me.

If you're in #GrandRapidsMI, I'll be part of a #scifi and #fantasy night at Schuler Books, 11/6 @ 6pm. Come support #indieauthors and #indiebookstores!

Bit of #OldTestament #wisdom this morning.

“When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them. The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the Lord your God.” Leviticus 19:33-34

#Writing and reading good #literature in times of terror is not escapism. It does take us outside of ourselves, but it helps us process our world and our neighbors in ways that fight fascism and despair.

‪Fantastic acrylic on canvas #art from my friend @brainstaticartwork.bsky.social. Check out here: www.etsy.com/shop/brainst....

"Unlike physical materials or traditional digital material pricing models, #Hoopla charges #libraries as soon as an item is borrowed – even if a patron does not read, watch, or listen to the title."

If you're a Hoopla user, help keep it available and use it respectfully!

I'm more and more convinced that "systematic theology" is approximately the furthest thing from intimacy with its subject.

I’ve always been a journaler, but #journaling has a new appeal for me lately in that it’s entirely private (unless physically stolen) and can't be scraped, crawled, or used to train #AI.

Could quote Rohr all day, but here's a good one: "True life always morphs into love, forgives everything for being that thing, and thus is much stronger than death."
