I agree. I know someone who did this early on when they were learning the craft. It helped immensely, and allowed a deeper perspective into how a professional writer can craft a sentence, a paragraph, a chapter. It’s an excellent exercise.

Oh, my goodness! I had a science fiction story sale today! I should talk about raccoon penises more often, I guess. 😀

like a 4th wall break. Just finished The Brass Operative yesterday and enjoyed it. I'm not usually a detective book reader, but it had me hooked... read it in three nights! —Shane Herbert

I don’t believe Hachette didn’t know ‘Shy Girl’ was written by AI. They absolutely knew it, but they got caught.

I don’t believe their stupid story for one minute.

I have followed with interest the discourse on how upcoming writers don’t read. It’s true. You read what they write…it’s nothing more than rehashed Hollywood slop.

It’s not only bad. Bad writing can be repaired. It’s recycled garbage, that was recycled many times before. They have zero creativity.

The world is a dark and wounded place.

Yes, I see it, too. Especially these clowns who are doing a circuit on 4 or 5 different machines or barbell stations. 😟

We need more poets in the world.

You’re living the dream.

We will never use AI—which isn’t AI anyway—in our books. That is a line we will never cross, and we make that commitment to all our readers.

Oh, no 😳
