Gus and Glory is on Audible! Sophie Amoss, who also narrated Nowhere Better Than Here, does such a good job bringing this story to life!
Isn’t it like SUPER bad luck to rename a boat?

Open AI’s valuation is at $400 billion. They used about 190,000 books to train their plagiarism bot. Randomly saying 25% of their value comes from that stolen dataset, I think they owe the authors about $526,000 per stolen book.

I'm starting to think that a lot of writers who come into the book world don't know that almost all of the living authors on the shelf at the bookstore have some other source of income.
Expecting to make your living writing books and only writing books is almost certainly going to fail.

Mine does this too🤷🏻♀️
I might be rambling, and I might be caught in a doom cycle, but here is the important part: If you're in publishing and you feel like you can't catch up and you don't know how to break out, you are not alone. This game is rigged. All we can do is love the work and try to maintain our sanity. 12/
It's especially difficult to release a book when a dynamo like Silver Elite is dominating the space. An IP book by an anonymous bestseller that got millions in PR budget rules over all while we salivate over the sprayed edges? Oof. I feel like a mule watching a billion dollar horse win the derby. 3/
Imagine being Jeff Bezos and you’re like, “my legacy is that I killed the independent bookstore and also destroyed one of the most important American institutions in the Washington Post, but I DID get to send my girlfriend to space for 10 minutes."
Tech bros are desperate to legitimize their theft of copyrighted works by artists and writers. After the head of the US copyright office released a report questioning if fair use allowed GenAI systems to be trained on copyrighted material, Trump fired her. 1/ www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Love this.
That sounds like a perfect location!! Congrats!!

I would still read to mine if they would tolerate it (they’re grown). These parents are reading the wrong books🤷🏻♀️
NYT headline: “Kennedy Advises New Parents to ‘Do Your Own Research’ on Vaccines” Subheader: “In an interview with Dr. Phil, the health secretary offered false information about vaccine oversight and revealed a lack of basic understanding of new drug approvals.”
“And I’m like, what do you mean, you ‘do your own research’? You running a double-blind study in your living room, dawg?”

FFS. Why was this even a question? These people are morons.
It’s so wacky being a creative who has to balance the interplay of being “here” (online), without succumbing to the false belief that something ALWAYS has be to shared.
Some stuff takes ages to make. Sometimes your process is just for you. I know we all know this, but it’s worth hearing again.
I can’t imagine what this will do. The test-centered culture has already destroyed our students’ ability to deal with any sort of indeterminacy.
Someone should tell him what we know about tanning beds….
Eh. He’s probably always been a fascist and they gave him the avenue to try.
