Every other creative industry con/event with panels now seemingly insists on having a panel about gen ai and the title is always essentially "ai - good or bad? 🤔" like can we stop pretending there might be some mysterious good side that isn't greed/laziness and somehow negates all the huge issues

Some people are born to be romance writers. And then, of course, there’s me, who just told my beautiful, kind, intelligent wife that she has ‘gremlin-like qualities’

Look, everyone’s entitled to their opinion on #TheOdyssey, whether it’s Nolan’s movie, the delightful article #EmilyWilson wrote about it or the ancient tale itself, but we can all agree that me & my knitted-slippered stage son are the BEST Penelope and Telemachus to ever grace your screen, right?

Last round of (line & copy) edits is DONE! Next up: finalizing my cover design. I’m glad I decided to do the artwork myself, because it turns out I’m the most difficult client I have ever had.

All kinds of excited for the Rainbow Crate edition of No Shelter But The Stars by Virginia Black! Man alive this book is so pretty. Davia and Kyran deserve nothing less. #WLW #SapphicBooks

As a science fiction writer I really fucking resent tech bros for ruining the phrase "artificial intelligence." 80 years of it being all about cool androids and interesting computers destroyed by five years of "Spicy autocorrect making everything shittier for money." NEVER FORGIVE.

I have been working on an adaptation of You & Me & Holiday Wine, and will be publishing it this fall as a chunky, feel-good, sapphic romantic comedy. This means I’ll have to take the fic off of ao3. If you’d like to hear my heart breaking about it, come visit me @ easterkingston.substack.com!

Everytime I read 'A human artist would not make this mistake' somewhere online, I, a human artist, start to sweat nervously.

we’re live! if you like swords, valiant women & nonbinary champions, come get your order in—it’s for a terrific cause!

Pencil acquired, back to art:)

I miss the days where we could count on Google to take our very coherent translation requests and turn them into something you might find on a Tori Amos album. It was completely nonsensical, obviously, but at least it was consistent

#supercorp as a tragedy told in… four hands

I feel bad about my art (or lack thereof) pretty frequently so just know if you also feel bad about your own art, you’re not alone. Every single artist I know no matter how *amazing* they are still questions their skills, creativity, etc. The doubt means there’s growth and change and that’s okay.

another day, another scammer. check your work my friends ❤️

authorsguild.org/news/meta-li... Advice for pirated authors.

in some ways it’s hard to create new things right now — and in other ways it’s the easiest, most necessary choice, to stay sane and remember who you are and have the energy to keep fighting. the world is hard. keep making beautiful messy powerful honest things anyway.

Google joins the call to gut our legal protections, pushing for a world where Big Tech gets to profit from all your innovations & works for free, and that theft is ok’d by law. No joke IF they get this, the US will likely face irreparable harm as pivotal creative economies crash.

Replacing human narrators has been the idea all along. #speechify has been bragging about this plan for at least a year:

ABSOLUTELY NOT FUCK THIS SHIT ABSOLUTELY NEVER OVER MY DEAD BODY

A plea to the #writingcommunity: please stop using AI-generated art to promote your book or for cover art. It looks terrible, and AI companies create the images by stealing from legitimate artists. Without exception, the AI art I've seen looks stale, lifeless, and generic. Do better for your book.

Well, guess I can't use Speechify anymore. Such a shame, it was a good tool for reading back my wips. #writingcommunity www.reddit.com/r/selfpublis...
