Less than two hours left to get in on this amazing kickstarter. Stretch goals have been crushed, real artists are getting paid, and you get a queer romans-tasy book that promises to be unlike any you’ve read before. (Even if you’ve read their other books!)
I still remember that post that was like "Look for me AI is a tool that helps me get my tangled thoughts into any sort of order someone would like to read."
You know what else does that?
*Writing*.
WOW
Just over 24 hours left to back the campaign! I wrote my final update post about a ?ghost encounter? I maybe experienced during my research trip to Pompeii 👀 www.kickstarter.com/projects/ale... #queeradultsff 🩵📚🪐
Fantasy fans and Roman history nerds, there's just five days left to back THE WISDOM OF EMPERORS on kickstarter. With the stretch goals, every order includes FIVE art cards of the interior illustrations in full color -- like this one below by @qwertyprophecy.bsky.social! bit.ly/wisdomofemperors 🩵📚🪐

One day left! Join me in helping this GLORIOUSLY BATSHIT thing become a Real Book! I'm honestly not sure I've ever been this stoked for a book, and I'm saying that in my capacity as someone who has a really rather long list of authors whose every new offering I gobble up like a starving labrador.
It's been fascinating (pejorative) watching traditional publishers increasingly renege on what are supposed to be the perks of trad publishing.
Marketing? Authors do that themselves now. Editing? Less and less. Commissioning good cover art? Nah, let's see whether readers will notice AI™ slop.
Just in time for the ONE WEEK LEFT mark, my artist Mosu has finished the first interior illustration, the Jeweled Gates of Xereccio! Behold the city in all its glory:
Friends and neighbours, we are *so* close to the stretch goal where we force @alexandrarowland.bsky.social to take a break from posting on tumblr about Latin fuck verbs and take a well-earned nap.

Gen AI is bullshit. No one who is creative needs it.
It doesn't replicate or replace skills. It doesn't add value.
It is a thievery machine. It's talent from TEMU -- you order a blender, but it robs a pet store and brings you a snake.
It's not a tool in a toolbox. It's cowshit.
Hope this helps.
