Hey, everyone! It's my birthday today, and (I like to think I don't often ask) I'd love it if you bought, borrowed, talked about, reviewed, or photographed one of my books today. I've also dropped the price of WHILE I WAS GONE to $1.99 through June to celebrate 🎉👻 Thanks for all your support! 🖤
Seeing stock image websites offering AI image generation memberships is just totally bananas to me. So, we can buy credits to buy images that cost you nothing to make, were stolen from creators (that's what AI image generation is), and then use those slop images under a limited license? WTF? NO.
Huge thanks to Nora for hosting me on The Butchered Writers substack! Awesome questions, and, hopefully, suitably interesting answers 👇🏼👇🏼
Sure, a bad project sucks, so do rejections (I hate that term), crappy reviews, and no one reading your work.
But you know what sucks more? Giving up before you cracked that fucking awesome book you have in you.
Turn the music up, scream, break something, then get back to work. You got this 🖤
The Devil Takes You Home has been nominated for a #kelvin505 award for best novel in translation in Spain! First international nomination. Bien merecido, enhorabuena y mil gracias al gran Mike Sanz y a La Biblioteca de Carfax por ser mi casa. ¡Y gracias al Festival Celsius 232 por el honor! 🖤
If Stock websites ever want to be taken seriously again, they need to distance themselves from AI. Put a REALLY BIG distance between themselves and the slop.
