The illustrated cover of TINY HOUSE, BIG LOVE by Olivia Dade, featuring a man and woman in a loft bed in a wood-ceiling cabin with a peaked roofline. The woman is lying on her back and holding the upper arm of a man bent over her and cradling her face. There's the top of a ladder behind them.

I'm so excited that TINY HOUSE, BIG LOVE--the second novella in my Love Unscripted series--has a gorgeous new cover by @lenikauffman.bsky.social and an upcoming audiobook (out March 24th) narrated by the fabulous Joy Nash. 🥰

Here's where to find the audiobook! rbmediaglobal.com/audiobook/97...

The illustrated cover of DESIRE AND THE DEEP BLUE SEA by Olivia Dade, featuring a sunset and rocky cliffs in the background near a sandy shoreline, with an embracing couple in the foreground. The woman is brunette and fat and pretty, with her hair swept back. She's wearing a Grecian-style dress and has her arms around the neck of a dark-haired, lean man with glasses in a dark gray suit.

‘Happy’ International Women’s Day, I guess. Most women I speak to these days are filled with rage, and for good reason. There’s still so much to do, I want better for women and girls 🔥

Learning to draw really just takes lots of time and practice. But when you say that a bunch of people are like "if that was true, then I could do it!" And then you're like "yes" and then they're like "see? that's why you're lying!!" and then they continue to not practice because they don't like to

I've said this before but just because some artists are able to draw BIPOC characters sometimes does not mean that they are "safe" for us to be around.
Discernment is good to have, and I don't think I'll ever let that go.
The keyword here is "sometimes".

so very surprising that a filmmaker famous for stealing from - sorry, paying homage to - Satoshi Kon would gladly embrace the latest theft machine

I am just gonna say it, these guys are completely emasculated by the knowledge that they have been out-organized by a group that is significantly made up of women, and all the bullshit call of duty nonsense is cope for their wounded egos bsky.app/profile/jeet...

AI’s Memorization Crisis Large language models don’t “learn”—they copy. And that could change everything for the tech industry.

GenAI companies keep claiming the books and copyrighted works their programed were "trained" on without permission didn't retain complete copies in their systems. This was a lie.

These companies may now face for even more liability for violating copyrights. 1/

All the best illustrators you have ever known or heard of, whether they admit to it or not, likely make heavy use of reference. Use it. Even if your style is more abstract, the advice still applies.

Illustrated poster of the tower of Cirith Ungol in the land of Mordor. In the foreground are a bunch of orcs and goblins with acid green rim-light holding swords and axes and pole-arms. In the middle ground is a narrow bridge leading between two grotesque statues into the multi tiered tower that is lit with sickly green lights. Below it leading into the plateau of Gorgoroth are the hills of the Ethel Duath. In the distance is Orodruin and Ered Lithui. The text at the top is white flame like black metal lettering with the words CIRITH UNGOL. Nine green stars float above them. Plumes of smoke and ash fill the sky. A tiny shadow is grossing the bridge. Lord of the Rings. Tolkien. Prints on InPrint.

Read what you want, darlings, but it's odd when books that happen to feature sex are treated as radioactive and those about murder are treated as general interest.

Starting the new year with a renewed hatred for all things Gen AI. So I drew a knight slaying a dragon, can you spot all the hints that the monster is AI? 🌞

If you’re not willing to draw the line on your participation in a platform at “it helps create sexualized images of minors against their will” then I’m not sure you have a line or that it’s particularly meaningful.

Many such cases but might as well acknowledge it.
