Hey so I read book 2 of Benedict Patrick's Card Mage series yesterday. And by "read it yesterday" I mean I devoured it in a day. Basing a progression fantasy book on a magic card game was an amazing idea actually. The worst part of this series is that only two books exist atm

@HiuGregg Carrots? No idea. I could sure chop a lot of cabbages, though.

More people need to read The Wings Upon Her Back by Samantha Mills! A fucking fantastic book that manages to (carefully, thoughtfully, honestly) explore the fanatic loyalty & isolation that comes with abusive relationships/causes. All wrapped up in a steampunk revolution.

Hello hello all, I'm en route to Glasgow to do the WorldCon thing today. This is entirely spur of the moment and I have nothing planned whatsoever. So if anyone is around, let me know so I can say hi!

Shit, even if I'm a normal author, that'd be the smart move in those circumstances. If I wanted to make money, I'd buy Storywise and charge people to tell them their grade. But then, over time, would the "preferred" style of writing become dictated by the preferences of the AI?

If I was an AI grifter, and I knew that publishers or agent house pre-graded their slush piles using Storywise... I would simply... Buy Storywise myself? By catering to it, adjusting my book to improve my grade, I could guarantee I'd get close to the top of the pile.

The whole AI-in-publishing argument feels increasingly nuclear. And I'm not talking in terms of intensity. It's more the idea that anyone reading a slush pile might need an "AI deterrent" to combat AI submissions.
